Introduction to your Sunbeam Slow Cooker.  
Slow cooking is the secret to flavoursome foods  
and tender moist meats cooked to perfection.  
The Slow Cooker is designed to do just that.  
Meals are cooked over a long period of time,  
about 6-10 hours. Ideally food can be placed in  
the Slow Cooker in the morning and left all day,  
arriving home to a delicious hot dinner!  
It’s easy with the Sunbeam Slow Cooker. Take  
the time to read through this book, and you will  
soon discover how easy it is to prepare delicious  
meals and how to get the most from your  
Sunbeam Slow Cooker.  
It’s easy to clean.  
The Crock-Insert is removable and  
dishwasher safe.  
It’s safe for cooking.  
Slow cooking is a safe way to cook foods  
because the Low and High settings reach  
temperatures high enough to prevent bacterial  
growth.  
Guaranteed reliability.  
Your new Sunbeam Slow Cooker will give you  
years of reliable service, backed by Sunbeam’s 12  
month Replacement Guarantee.  
It’s versatile.  
The Slow Cooker will cook soups, stews,  
casseroles, roasts, bake cakes and steam  
puddings.  
If you have any questions about your Sunbeam  
frypan or any other Sunbeam appliance, please  
phone the Sunbeam Consumer Service Line on  
1800 025 059 or the Sunbeam office in your  
state. In New Zealand - call the Sunbeam office  
in Auckland on 09 912 0747.  
It’s economical.  
The Slow Cooker uses little power, especially on  
the Low setting. Once the Slow Cooker reaches  
temperature, the food also cooks on retained  
heat. The Slow Cooker is ideal for cooking  
cheaper cuts of meat, as the slow, moist cooking  
tenderises the meat and develops the flavour of  
foods.  
No fuss cooking.  
The internal heating element evenly cooks food  
without the need to stir. Food also cooks slowly  
so you can leave it to attend to other things.  
Keep in mind that food does not overcook in the  
Slow Cooker, so a few additional hours of  
cooking will not burn foods.

A guide to slow cooking.  
Low heat setting.  
Pre-heating.  
The Low heat setting provides controlled heat  
for gentle slow cooking of food.  
It is essential to pre-heat the Slow Cooker for at  
least 20 minutes when baking. You may also  
pre-heat the Slow Cooker while preparing  
ingredients for cooking.  
This setting is ideally used if you would like  
meals to be ready after an extended period of  
time.  
Important: DO NOT PLACE FROZEN FOOD INTO  
A HEATED SLOW COOKER - as this may damage  
the Crock-Insert.  
High heat setting.  
One hour on high is equivalent to about 2  
1
/
2
hours on low.  
Pre-browning.  
To seal in flavours and juices, it is recommended  
to pre-brown meats and poultry in a frypan  
before placing in the Slow Cooker.  
When baking, cooking dried beans or pulses and  
soups, the high setting must be used. Cooking  
times can be adapted as a recipe can be started  
on High for the first 2 hours and then turned to  
Low for the remainder of the time.  
Fat cuts of meat and mince should be pre-  
browned and drained thoroughly to remove any  
excess fat.  
Timing.  
All recipes indicate whether to use the Low or  
High settings, with a suggested variation in  
cooking times.  
Roasting.  
Roasting in a Slow Cooker is the process  
whereby meat cooks slowly in the moist heat of  
a closed casserole.  
On the Low setting, timing is not critical, making  
it almost impossible to overcook food in the  
Slow Cooker.  
Cheaper cuts of meat are especially suitable for  
roasting as the slow cooking process breaks  
down the tough muscle in meats. If you want to  
keep meat out of the juice and allow for fat  
drainage when roasting, place the meat on a  
wire rack.  
A couple of extra hours will not ruin the food  
because of the slow cooking process.  
Lifting the lid.  
The temperatures in the Slow Cooker build up  
slowly, therefore avoid lifting the lid whilst  
cooking.  
When roasting whole pieces of lamb, beef or  
chicken, liquid is not required.  
Pot roasts, corned meats etc. need to be barely  
covered with liquid.  
Constant removal of the lid will result in a loss of  
heat and moisture extending cooking time.  
Oven bags can be used when roasting lamb,  
beef and chicken.  
Note: Each time the lid is lifted, extend cooking  
time by 30 minutes.  
Liquid.  
Stirring.  
The lid will stop steam from escaping, so it is  
normal for at least one cup of liquid to form in  
the Slow Cooker.  
Stirring food is seldom necessary. The internal  
heating element will heat the food evenly and  
prevent food from sticking to the base.  
In most recipes additional liquid is not needed,  
however an extra cup of liquid may be added if  
desired.

A guide to slow cooking (Cont).  
Frozen vegetables should be thawed before  
adding to a casserole.  
Beans and pulses.  
Soak dried beans and pulses overnight. Place in  
the Slow Cooker and cover with double their  
volume of water.  
When cooking meat and vegetables together,  
place vegetables on the bottom and sides of  
Slow Cooker, and place the meat on top. This  
will encourage even cooking of both.  
Cover and cook on High for 5-6 hours or until  
tender.  
Baking.  
Casseroles.  
The High setting must be used when baking  
cakes. The Slow Cooker should be pre-heated  
with Crock-insert and lid in place for at least 20  
minutes.  
When preparing meat casseroles, best results are  
achieved when the meat is lightly coated in flour  
and browned in a frypan before adding to the  
Slow Cooker. This helps seal in juices, giving a  
more flavoursome, tender result.  
Cake tins should be covered with foil to prevent  
steam droplets from falling on top of the cake.  
Place the tin on top of a wire rack that has been  
positioned in the Slow Cooker. Do not lift the lid  
until the cooking time has nearly elapsed. Insert  
a skewer in the centre of the cake to test  
doneness.  
To thicken a casserole, simply set the slow cooker  
to high and stir through a thickening agent such  
as cornflour with water. Replace lid and allow to  
simmer until thickened.  
Note: Remember to increase cooking time by  
30 minutes each time the lid is lifted.  
Adapting favourite recipes.  
Vegetables.  
Old favourite recipes can be adapted to slow  
cooking. Reduce liquid to half the amount and  
cook for the following times recommended  
below.  
Cut vegetables into small even size pieces for  
even cooking results.  
Root vegetables such as potatoes should be  
cooked on High.

Care and Cleaning.  
Note: Do not use harsh abrasives or metal  
scourers to clean any part of your Slow Cooker.  
Cleaning after use.  
Always turn the power OFF and remove  
the plug before cleaning.  
Caution: Do not immerse the Slow Cooker body  
into water or any other liquids.  
Wash the Crock-Insert and lid in warm soapy  
eater using a mild household detergent, rinse  
and dry thoroughly.  
Do not place frozen or very cold food in a pre-  
heated Slow Cooker.  
If food is cooked onto the Crock-Insert and is  
difficult to clean, soak in warm water and lightly  
scrub with a plastic brush.  
Avoid placing the hot Crock-Insert or lid under  
cold water.  
The Crock-Insert is also dishwasher safe. Care  
should be taken to avoid breaking, chipping or  
cracking the Crock-Insert or lid.  
Cleaning the exterior.  
The exterior of the Slow Cooker and aluminium  
liner may be wiped over with a damp cloth.
