SLOW COOK FUNCTION
The SLOW COOK function has cooking
profiles designed for long cook times at
low temperatures.
1. Insert the wire rack, with the spokes facing
upward, into the bottom rack height
position.
2. Close the oven door.
3. Turn the FUNCTION dial until the
indicator on the LCD screen reaches the
SLOW COOK function. The top figure
on the LCD screen indicates the preset
SLOW COOK temperature of ‘HI’, while
the bottom figure indicates the preset time
of ‘4:00HRS’. The preset CONVECTION
setting will also be displayed.

4. The slow cook temperature, time and
convection settings can be adjusted before
or during the slow cook cycle.
a) The temperature is displayed as the
top figure on the LCD screen. Turn
the TEMPERATURE dial to adjust
slow cooking to one of two preset
temperatures: ‘LO’ or ‘HI’.
b) The time is displayed as the bottom
figure on the LCD screen. Turn the TIME
dial to adjust the time up to 10 hours.
5. Place food, inside covered oven-proof
cookware, on the center of the wire rack
so air will flow around all sides of the food.
Close the oven door.
6. Press the START/CANCEL button to
activate the SLOW COOK function. The
button backlight will illuminate red, the
oven alert will sound and the LCD screen
will illuminate orange. The LCD screen will
indicate a blinking ‘PREHEATING’.
7. After the PREHEATING alert has sounded,
the timer will automatically begin to count
down. The cycle can be stopped at any time
by pressing the START/CANCEL button.
8. At the end of the SLOW COOK cycle,
the oven will automatically switch to the
WARM function. The LCD screen will
display ‘KEEP WARM’ and a keep warm
time of ‘2:00 HR/MIN’ will automatically
count down. The keep warm cycle can be
stopped at any time by pressing the
START/CANCEL button.
NOTE
Do not pull the wire rack further than halfway
out when inserting or removing cookware from
the oven.
Do not allow heavy cookware to rest on the
glass when the door is open.
TIPS
TIPS FOR SLOW COOKING
1. Ensure cookware is oven-proof and does not
exceed 13 pounds when empty.
2. Fill cookware to a minimum of ½ and
maximum of ¾ full to avoid over or
under-cooking. To prevent spillover,
do not fill cookware more than ¾ full.
3. Always slow cook with the lid on to prevent
food from drying out. Cover cookware with
a layer of aluminum foil before covering
with lid to keep even more moisture in.
4. Follow cooking temperatures and times
prescribed in traditional slow cooker
recipes. One hour on ‘HI’ is equivalent to
approximately one-and-a-half to two hours
on ‘LO’.
5. Cold food will take longer to cook than food
that has been pre-seared or heated so adjust
cooking times as appropriate. Do not slow
cook frozen foods.
6. Cut large pieces of meat in half to allow heat
to penetrate more evenly.
