Home screen
Step 1: Set the timer
Tap the timer display and use the speed selector to set an operating time of up
to 99 minutes.
Select a time between 0-1 minute in 1 second increments,
1–5 minutes in 10 second increments,
5–20 minutes in 30 second increments,
20–99 minutes in 60 second increments.
Step 2: Set the temperature
Tap the temperature dial and use the selector to set the desired temperature to
heat or cook the ingredients in the mixing bowl. If the dish should not be
heated, skip this step. Please note that the heating function of the Thermomix
will remain inactive until a time is set.
Step 3: Start the Thermomix

Tap the speed dial and use the selector to set the desired speed. Once the speed
has been set, the locking mechanism 1 will secure the lid and the preset time
will begin counting down to 00:00 in one second increments. In the cold mix-
ing mode, the mixing speed will switch off once the preset time has expired.
A sound will indicate the end of the process and that the lid can be removed.
Depending on the preset speed, the locking mechanism will only unlock the
lid after a few seconds to ensure that no liquid spills out.
In the warm mixing mode after heating and simmering, you will experience a
different behaviour of the Thermomix ® than in cold mixing mode.
Once the preset time has expired, the mixing knife continues to stir gently
for 8 seconds to help prevent burning on the mixing bowl base. After the
additional 8 seconds have expired, the Thermomix motor will stop, a sound
will indicate the end of the process and that the lid can be removed. Please
note that it is not required to wait these 8 seconds but you may also stop your
Thermomix manually any time before the 8 seconds have expired.
IMpORTanT:
Heating and cooking are only possible if a time period has been set.
cauTIOn
Never touch the locking arms or mixing bowl lid when opening or closing
the Thermomix®. Do not attempt to remove the mixing bowl or the mixing
bowl lid with force.

Adjustment of preset time

The preset time can be changed at any time during preparation. Tap the time
dial (if it is not yet active) and turn the selector clockwise to increase the time
or counter-clockwise to decrease it. If the mixing knife is stopped before the
preset time has expired – for example, to add an ingredient – the timer will
be paused. The countdown will resume once a new speed has been selected.
To stop the mixing process before the preset time has expired, press the time
dial and turn the selector counter-clockwise until the time is set to 00:00 or
press the selector.
If no time has been preset and the speed selector is activated the Thermomix
will automatically stop after a maximum time of 99 minutes. After this time,
a buzzer will sound.
