You can use your slow cooker with or without the AutoStir attachment depending on the dish you are cooking. The method
of programming your slow cooker remains the same whether you are using the AutoStir attachment or not. See Using the
AutoStir Attachment for more details. If you are not using the stirring attachment remove it (fig. 6) and fit the detachable
handle (fig. 7).

Notes
• If there is a power cut during cooking all cooking settings will be lost when the power is restored and the unit will be
in a standby state with the high temperature, low temperature and keep warm lights flashing. If you are unaware how
long the power was off the food may be unsafe to eat and we suggest you discard the food.
• To avoid over or under-cooking, always fill the stoneware ½ to ¾ full and keep to the recommended cooking times.
• Do not overfill the stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill the stoneware more than ¾ full.
• Always cook with the lid on for the recommended time. Do not remove the lid during the first two hours of cooking to
allow the heat to build up efficiently.
• Always wear oven gloves when handling the lid or stoneware.
• Always unplug your slow cooker from the supply socket when you have finished using it and before cleaning.
• The removable stoneware is ovenproof. Do not use removable stoneware on a gas burner, electric hob or under a grill.
USING THE AUTOSTIR ATTACHMENT
Most recipes benefit from being stirred during cooking but in order to stir the contents of a slow cooker, you have to open
the lid. This lets out valuable moisture formed during cooking taking away heat and cooling the contents which can take
a long time to heat up again. Your AutoStir attachment does the stirring so you don't have to open the lid. Simply prepare
your ingredients, set the cooking time and fit the AutoStir attachment. After an initial 2 hour delay to allow the ingredients
to soften, your AutoStir attachment activates every 30 minutes and gently stirs the ingredients for 5 minutes to ensure
thorough mixing and even heating.
