Important Safeguards For Your Kambrook Super Sear Cooker

• Do not allow water from the lid to drip into the

slow cooker housing, only into the removable

cooking pot.

• Always have the glass lid placed correctly

into position on the removable cooking pot

throughout operation of the slow cooker unless

states in the recipe to have it removed.

• The glass lid has been specially treated to

make it stronger, more durable and safer than

ordinary glass, however it is not unbreakable. If

struck extremely hard, it may break or weaken,

and could at a later time shatter into many

small pieces without apparent cause.

• Do not leave the slow cooker unattended

when in use.

• Do not place anything, other than the lid, on

top of the slow cooker when assembled, when

in use and when stored.

• Extreme caution must be used when the slow

cooker contains hot food and liquids.

• The temperature of accessible surfaces will be

high when the slow cooker is operating and for

some time after use.

• We recommend the slow cooker is not placed

on a stone bench top when cooking. This is

due to bench tops being sensitive to uneven

heat and may crack if heated locally. If you

would like to cook with the slow cooker on the

bench top, place a chopping board or heat

proof matt underneath the slow cooker.

Only remove silicone handles once cooking pot is cool. Only position silicone handles on a cooled pan.

•Silicone handles should remain in position while using the cooking pot on stovetop, oven and in slow cooker.

•If you are not home during the slow cooking process and the power goes out, throw away the food even if it looks done.

•If you are at home, finish cooking the ingredients immediately by some other means: on a gas stove, on the outdoor grill or at a house where the power is on.

•When you are at home, and if the food was completely cooked before the power went out, the food should remain safe up to two hours in the cooker with power off.

•To avoid an electrical overload, it is recommended that no other appliances are plugged into the same circuit as your slow cooker when it is in use.

•Do not operate the slow cooker on an incline plane. Do not operate the slow cooker unless the element is fully immersed. Do not move while the slow cooker is switched on.
