FAQs
Is the ceramic bowl oven-safe?
The bowl is designed for the slow cooker base. We do not recommend using it in a conventional oven or on a stovetop.
Can I leave the slow cooker on while I am at work?
Yes, slow cookers are designed for unattended cooking, but ensure it is placed on a heat-proof surface away from flammable items.
How much liquid should I use?
As a rule, your ingredients should be covered by at least halfway with liquid, but avoid filling the pot more than three-quarters full to prevent bubbling over.
What is the wattage of this unit?
The unit operates at 200W.
Are the lid and bowl dishwasher safe?
Yes, both the ceramic cooking bowl and the glass lid are safe to be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Can I use the slow cooker to sear meat?
This model is intended for slow cooking only. You should sear meats in a separate pan on the stove before transferring them to the slow cooker for best results.
Troubleshooting
The unit does not power on
Ensure the plug is fully inserted into the socket and that the socket is switched on. Check the fuse in the plug if necessary.
Food is undercooked after several hours
Check that the lid is properly seated; gaps in the lid seal allow heat to escape, significantly increasing cooking time.
Sticking or burning at the bottom
Ensure there is enough liquid in the recipe and avoid lifting the lid frequently, as each lift releases heat and extends the cook time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: ensure the unit is placed on a flat, heat-resistant surface with adequate ventilation. The unit is pre-fitted with a UK 3-pin plug and rated for 220-240V, making it compatible with standard household outlets. To maintain the appliance, always allow the ceramic bowl to cool before cleaning. While the ceramic bowl and glass lid are dishwasher-safe, hand washing with mild detergent is recommended to extend the life of the finish. Never immerse the stainless steel base in water; simply wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth.
