FAQs
Can I put the cooking pot in the oven?
The pot is designed for use on a hob and within the slow cooker base. Check the user manual for specific oven-safe ratings before attempting to use it in an oven.
Is the pot dishwasher safe?
Yes, both the cooking pot and the toughened glass lid are dishwasher safe.
Can I use the pot on my induction stove?
No, the cooking pot is not compatible with induction hobs.
How do I choose between the three heat settings?
Use Low for long, all-day cooking, Medium for standard recipes, and High for when you need to cook a meal in a shorter timeframe.
Does the slow cooker have a keep-warm function?
This model utilizes manual rotary control for three heat levels, but it does not feature an automated keep-warm setting.
Troubleshooting
Food is undercooked or takes too long to reach temperature
Ensure the lid is properly seated to trap heat. Avoid lifting the lid frequently during the cooking cycle, as this releases steam and drops the internal temperature.
Food is sticking to the pot
Ensure you are using a small amount of oil when searing on the hob, and check that the heat setting on the base is appropriate for the contents of the pot.
Pot is not heating up on the hob
Verify that you are not using an induction hob, as the base of the pot is not compatible with magnetic induction surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your device, place the base unit on a flat, heat-resistant surface near a power outlet. Ensure the cooking pot is dry before placing it into the base. For compatibility, please note that the pot is designed for standard gas and electric hobs; do not attempt to use it on induction hobs as the base material is not compatible. For maintenance, while the pot and lid are dishwasher safe, using non-abrasive cloths and mild detergent will extend the life of the non-stick coating. Always allow the pot to cool down naturally before immersing it in cold water to prevent thermal shock.
