Operation
Preparing the pot
∙ Select a suitable pot with a minimum
depth of 15.5 cm.
∙ Fill with warm water.
HINT:
The use of warm water shortens the
time before the required cooking
temperature is reached. Note: it may
take several minutes for the built-in
sensor to register the current water
temperature.
If the selected temperature is below
that of the water, the fan will turn, but
the appliance does not heat up and
the remaining running time does not
count down.
∙ When filling with water, always observe
the MIN and MAX markings on the
appliance. With the food to be cooked
in position, the water level must be
between the MIN and MAX markings.
∙ Keep in mind that the level will rise
when the food is put in. We therefore
recommend using a smaller amount of
water and then, if required, adding more
warm water up to the MAX mark after
the bags have been put in.
∙ The appliance will not work if the water
level is below the MIN mark. In this
case, 3 beep signals are heard and the
display shows EE1.
∙ Should the water level fall below the MIN
mark during operation, the appliance
switches off, 3 beep signals are heard
and the display shows EE1.
∙ To prevent excessive loss of water
during extended cooking, the pot may
be covered with aluminium foil or heat-
insulating sous-vide balls.
Placing the sous-vide stick
∙ Place the prepared pot on a level, water
and heat-resistant surface.
∙ Use the clamp to fit the sous-vide-stick
on the pot rim.
Adding the food to be cooked
∙ Place the vacuum bags containing the
food into the pot.
∙ Ensure that they are covered with water
at all times. Should you see a bag
floating on the surface, put a suitable
heat-resistant weight (eg a plate) on top
of it.
Programming the unit
∙ Connect the mains plug to a suitable
mains outlet.
A beep signal is heard, the
and the indicator light show red and the
display lights up briefly. The appliance is
now in stand-by mode.
∙ Press the
button briefly. The display
shows 'C' and the temperature last
selected.
∙ Use the +/- buttons to set the desired
cooking temperature in 0.5-degree steps
(up to max. 90°C). The temperature
settings can be adjusted in small steps
by a single push; keeping the button
pressed results in rapid scrolling.
∙ Press the
button; the display shows
the cooking time last selected: 00:01
(hrs : min).
∙ The cooking time in hours starts
