FAQs

What is the capacity of this slow cooker?

The Daewoo Slow Cooker has a generous 6.5 Litre capacity, making it suitable for large family meals.

Are the pot and lid dishwasher safe?

Yes, the removable non-stick cooking bowl and the glass lid are both dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.

How many heat settings does it have?

It features three heat settings: `Low`, `High`, and a `Keep Warm` function.

Does this slow cooker have a 'keep warm' function?

Yes, it includes an automatic `Keep Warm` function that activates after cooking, ensuring your meal stays warm until you're ready to serve.

Can I serve food directly from the slow cooker?

Absolutely. Thanks to its lightweight design and cool-touch handles, you can safely and easily transport the slow cooker and serve meals directly from it.

What material is the slow cooker made from?

The exterior casing is made from durable stainless steel, while the cooking bowl has a non-stick coating.

Troubleshooting

Food is not cooking properly or is cooking too slowly.

Ensure the lid is securely seated to prevent heat loss. Verify that the correct heat setting (`Low` or `High`) is selected for your recipe's desired cooking time. Avoid frequently lifting the lid, as this can significantly increase cooking time.

The slow cooker unit does not turn on.

Check that the power cord is securely plugged into both the slow cooker and a working electrical outlet. Test the outlet with another appliance to ensure it has power. Make sure the heat setting dial is turned to `Low`, `High`, or `Keep Warm`.

Food sticks to the bottom of the cooking bowl.

Although the bowl is non-stick, some foods, especially those with high sugar content, may stick. Ensure you use enough liquid in your recipe. You can also lightly grease the bowl with cooking spray before adding ingredients.

The 'Keep Warm' function isn't keeping food hot enough.

The `Keep Warm` function maintains serving temperature, it does not continue to cook food. If food has cooled significantly before entering `Keep Warm`, it will only maintain that cooler temperature. Ensure food is thoroughly hot before switching to `Keep Warm`.
