    I think most slow cooker switches which have a dial have the low to the left, high in the middle and auto to the right.

    I would think your switch is probably the same ie press it in on the left side for low, to the right for auto and does it have a half way click so that it is neither pressed in to the left or right, if you know what I mean?

    Most things start to boil when on high so why not boil the kettle and pour some water into the crock and experiment with the switch, I would think the water will start to bubble if it is on high.

    I have a swan slow cooker with a switch the same as you describe.
    From left to right the settings are High - Low - Auto.

    I'd say experiment like the other poster said.
    I know that when I have mine on high, the food starts to bubble and boil, whereas on LOW it hardly 'lifts an eyebrow'.
    keep smiling,
