Before using the slow cooker for the first time, wash the lid and the ceramic pot with warm soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Place the ceramic pot into the heating base, add your ingredients, and plug the cooker into a power outlet.
The Goodmans 3.5L Slow Cooker typically offers three settings: Low, High, and Keep Warm. Use Low for longer cooking times, High for quicker cooking, and Keep Warm to maintain temperature after cooking.
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into the outlet. Check if the outlet is functional by testing another device. If the slow cooker still doesn't turn on, there may be a fault with the appliance that requires professional repair.
Yes, slow cookers are designed to be left unattended for extended periods. However, ensure it is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface, and follow all safety instructions in the manual.
Unplug the slow cooker and allow it to cool completely. Remove the ceramic pot and lid, and wash them with warm soapy water or place them in the dishwasher if they are dishwasher safe. Wipe the heating base with a damp cloth.
Ensure that the food is spread evenly in the ceramic pot and that the lid fits correctly. Avoid lifting the lid frequently as it releases heat and may affect cooking performance. Stirring occasionally during cooking can also help.
The lid may rattle due to steam build-up. Ensure the lid is properly seated. If the rattling persists, reduce the liquid slightly or reposition the lid until the noise stops.
To prevent sticking, lightly coat the inside of the ceramic pot with cooking spray or a small amount of oil before adding ingredients. Avoid overfilling the pot to allow proper heat circulation.
No, do not use the slow cooker if the ceramic pot has a crack, as it may break further during cooking and pose a safety risk. Replace the ceramic pot before using the appliance again.
The slow cooker should not be filled more than two-thirds full to ensure even cooking. Overfilling can lead to spillage or insufficient cooking of ingredients.
