Slow Cooking; Using The Steam Function - Crock-Pot CSC062X Bedienungsanleitung

RELEASING PRESSURE AT THE END OF COOKING
A. Natural Pressure Release Method: After cooking cycle is complete, let Multi-Cooker naturally release pressure
through the Bobber Valve. Unit will gradually cool down on its own. Wait at least 10 minutes after cooking has
completed. If using a higher volume of food and liquid, this can take up to 20 minutes. And then, turn the Steam
Release Dial to the "Release" position (see Figure 2). Do not place any part of your hand or body over the steam
outlet on top of the valve, as steam is very hot and can scald skin. The pressure has been released when steam is no
longer escaping from the valve and the Lid opens freely with minimal force. Only then is it safe to remove the Lid and
serve food.

setting (see Figure 2). Steam will release rapidly from the Steam Release Valve. Do not place any part of your hand
or body over the steam outlet on the top of the valve, as steam is very hot and can scald skin. Use this method with
caution when cooking liquid ingredients such as casseroles, soups, stocks, beans and pulses. Never use this method
when cooking rice, as rice tends to be very delicate. The pressure has been released when steam is no longer
escaping from the valve and the Lid opens freely with minimal force. Only then is it safe to remove the Lid and serve
food.

CAUTION:
1. Do not force the Lid to open. If it does not open easily this means that the Multi-Cooker is still under pressure.
2. During cooking, steam will build up in the Multi-Cooker, so when lifting the Lid use a kitchen glove or mitt to protect
your hand.

SLOW COOKING

LOW Setting: This is suitable for simmering and slow cooking. Recommended cooking times in LOW are from 6 to 8 hours.
HIGH Setting: This is for faster cooking. Recommended cooking times in HIGH are from 2 to 4 hours.
KEEP WARM Setting: When cooking time is completed, the Multi-Cooker automatically switches to the KEEP WARM setting
to prevent overcooking and to keep your cooked food warm until serving - perfect for busy families, those on the run and
those who need flexible meal times. This setting is not hot enough to cook and should only be used to keep hot, cooked
food warm for serving.
Note: When slow cooking, the ideal fill level for your ingredients is between the 1/2 and 2/3 marks. Never fill the Cooking
Pot above the MAX line.
Due to the multi-functionality of the CSC062X appliance, its slow cooking function works in a slightly different way
to regular Crockpots. If using a recipe for a similar-sized Crockpot
use with the CSC062X.
USING THE SLOW COOK FUNCTION
The SLOW COOK function does not use pressure in the cooking process, but some pressure can build inside the unit during
cooking. When using this function, ensure the Steam Release Dial is in the "Release" position. This function will cook similarly
to standard slow cookers, using lower temperatures and longer cooking times to achieve tender, flavorful meals.

Place the Multi-Cooker on a flat, level surface.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug the Multi-Cooker into a wall outlet. The Multi-Cooker will beep, and the
Display Screen will illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
1. Place your food and liquid inside the removable Cooking Pot.
2. Place the Lid onto the Multi-Cooker and align with
3. Rotate the Steam Release Dial into the "Release" position.
Note: Although this setting will not use pressure in the cooking process, some pressure can build inside the unit during
cooking. This is why it's important to keep the Steam Release Dial in the "Release" position.
4. Press the SLOW COOK button and adjust the time and temperature as needed.
Note: See the Cooking Guide on page 219 to find the possible time and temperature adjustments.
5. Press START/STOP. The time will begin to count down.
6. After the set cooking time has elapsed, the Multi-Cooker will beep and will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM
setting. The Display Screen will therefore change from the cook time to a new timer that will count up to 4:00 (4 hours)
or until you press the START/STOP button. After 4 hours in the KEEP WARM setting, the Multi-Cooker will turn off.
TIP: The SLOW COOK settings are in the Cooking Guide on page 219.
CAUTION: During slow cooking, steam may build up in the Multi-Cooker, so when lifting the Lid use a kitchen glove or mitt
to protect your hand.
STEAMING
The STEAM function is perfect for gently steaming fish and vegetables. It is pre-programmed to use the HIGH pressure
cooking setting. When steaming, use the Steaming Rack.
Capacity: When the Multi-Cooker is used with the STEAM function, the maximum capacity of liquid should be just under the
rack wires, so that the liquid is not touching the food.
Note: The unit cannot pressure cook without liquid. Ensure a minimum of 250ml of liquid is used inside the removable
Cooking Pot.

USING THE STEAM FUNCTION

Place the Multi-Cooker on a flat, level surface.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug the Multi-Cooker into a wall outlet. The Multi-Cooker will beep, and the
Display Screen will illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
1. Add 250ml of water to the bottom of the removable Cooking Pot and insert the cooking rack. Ensure water is just
under the wires of the rack so that food is not touching water.
2. Place your food on the cooking rack.
3. Place the Lid on and lock by rotating counterclockwise to the LOCKED
4. Rotate the Steam Release Dial into the "Seal" position.
5. Press the STEAM button and adjust the time and pressure as needed.
Note: See the Cooking Guide on page 219 to find the possible time and pressure adjustments.
6. Once you have made the desired adjustments, if any, press START/STOP.
7. The Multi-Cooker needs to gain pressure before pressure cooking can begin. When the Multi-Cooker is gaining
pressure, "HEAt" will appear on the Display Screen and the time will not count down. When pressure has been
reached, "HEAt" will disappear on the Display Screen, all 5 lights on the status bar will be illuminated and the time will
begin to count down.
8. After the set cooking time has elapsed, the Multi-Cooker will beep and will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM
setting. The Display Screen will therefore change from the cook time to a new timer that will count up to 4:00 (4 hours) or
until you press the START/STOP button. After 4 hours in the KEEP WARM setting, the Multi-Cooker will turn off.
TIP: See the Steaming Chart on page 220.
