An Introduction to Slow Cooking

Slow cooking is one of the best ways of preparing foods to ensure that the flavour and tenderness is retained. Your new slow cooker is easy to use and is extremely versatile. You can cook soups, stews, casseroles, roasts, bake desserts and even steam puddings. Slow cooking is also economical, as your new slow cooker uses very little power. Once the slow cooker reaches the selected temperature, the food cooks using the heat retained in the crock insert.

Your slow cooker is ideal for cooking tougher cuts of meat as the slow, moist heat tenderises the meat and enhances the flavours.

Your slow cooker is also very safe for keeping foods heated, as it operates at temperatures high enough to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.

Using your Slow Cooker

  1. Before using your Sunbeam slow cooker for the first time, remove the crock insert and lid and wash them in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly and replace.
  2. Place the slow cooker on a flat level surface.
  3. Prepare the food to be cooked and place inside the slow cooker. Replace the lid.
  4. Insert the plug into a 230-240V power outlet and turn the power ON.
  5. Select the desired cooking setting on the temperature control dial: LOW or HIGH. The power on light will illuminate to indicate that the appliance is switched on.

Note: KEEP WARM is not a cooking function. It is a warm function for food that is already cooked.

Tip: Do not place very cold or frozen food in the crock insert if it has been preheated as this may cause the crock insert to crack.

Tip: Transfer cooked food from the crock insert into an airtight container before storing in fridge or freezer.

Tip: Do not place the crock insert under cold water if it is still hot.

Tip: The crock insert is oven safe so you can reheat your precooked dishes in an oven preheated to no more than 160^ C.

Tips for Slow Cooking

  • All of the recipes contained in this book have recommended temperature settings. Most recipes can be cooked on the LOW setting, however when using the HIGH setting cooking times can often be halved.
  • Food will be brought to a simmer on all settings. The setting determines the time needed to reach a simmer.
  • When cooking with vegetables, place them in the crock insert first, and then place the meat on top.
  • Always ensure that food or liquid comes to at least half way up the wall of the crock insert, as the element is located on the sides of the slow cooker.
  • When roasting whole pieces of lamb, beef or chicken, it is not necessary to add liquid. Pot roasts and corned meats should be barely covered with liquid.
  • Do not use oven bags in your slow cooker.
  • When preparing meat for casseroles, lightly coat the pieces in flour and brown before adding to the slow cooker. This helps to seal in the juices and flavours, and keeps the meat tender.
  • Frozen casseroles can be placed in the cold slow cooker and heated for 5-8 hours,

depending on the quantity. Do not place frozen food into a heated slow cooker.

  • If a recipe results in too much liquid, turn the slow cooker to the HIGH setting, remove the lid and cook until sufficient liquid has evaporated.
  • To thicken a casserole, set the slow cooker to the HIGH setting and stir through a thickening agent such as cornflour combined with a little water. Allow to simmer until thickened, stirring occasionally.
  • Stirring is rarely necessary, as the element wraps around the sides of the slow cooker, preventing the food from sticking to the base.
  • Leave the lid on the slow cooker during cooking to maintain heat and moisture.
  • Reduce cooking times when the slow cooker is not completely full to achieve a better cooking result as the slow cooker heats up faster when not filled up to the rim.

Care and Cleaning

Wash the crock insert and lid in hot soapy water. To remove food that is cooked onto the bottom, soak the crock insert in warm water before cleaning and scrub lightly with a plastic or nylon brush. Rinse well and dry. The crock insert is also dishwasher safe for added convenience.

Note: Do not place the hot crock insert under cold water.

Wipe the exterior of the slow cooker with a damp cloth and polish dry. DO NOT use harsh abrasives, scourers or chemicals to clean any part of your slow cooker as these will damage the surfaces.

CAUTION: Do not immerse the base of the slow cooker in water or any other liquid.

Upon receipt of your claim, Sunbeam will seek to resolve your difficulties or, if the product is defective, advise you on how to obtain a replacement or refund.

To assist us in managing warranty claims, we recommend you register your product as soon as practicable after purchase by creating a MySunbeam account on our website and send a copy of your original receipt to Sunbeam.

In order to make a claim under our warranty, you must have the original proof of purchase documentation for the product and present it when requested.

Should your product develop any defect within 12 months of purchase because of faulty materials or workmanship, we will replace or repair it, at our discretion, free of charge. A product presented for repair may be replaced by a refurbished product of the same type rather than being repaired. Refurbished parts may be used to repair the product.

Our replacement or repair warranty only applies where a defect arises as a result of faulty material or workmanship during the warranty period. Your warranty does not cover misuse or negligent handling (including damage caused by failing to use the product in accordance with this instruction booklet), accidental damage, or normal wear and tear.

Your warranty does not:

• cover freight or any other costs incurred in making a claim, consumable items, accessories that by their nature and limited lifespan require periodic renewal (such as filters and seals) or any consequential loss or damage; or
• cover damage caused by:
- power surges, power dips, voltage supply problems, or use of the product on incorrect voltage;
- servicing or modification of the product other than by Sunbeam or an authorised Sunbeam service centre;
- use of the product with other accessories, attachments, product supplies, parts or devices that do not conform to Sunbeam specifications; or
- exposure of the product to abnormally corrosive conditions; or
- extend beyond 3 months if the product is used in commercial, industrial, educational or rental applications.

The benefits given to you by our warranty are in addition to other rights and remedies under law in relation to the product.

In Australia our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

Our goods also come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act.

If your warranty claim is not accepted, we will inform you and if requested to do so by you, repair the product provided you pay the usual charges for such repair. You will also be responsible for all freight and other costs.

Should your product require repair or service after the warranty period, contact your nearest Sunbeam service centre. For a complete list of Sunbeam's service centres, visit our website or call our customer service line for advice on 1300 881 861 in Australia, or 0800 786 232 in New Zealand.
