Cooking Foods
1. Place the appliance on a flat surface. Plug in.
2. Fill the water bath with lukewarm or hot water. The water must not be
hotter than the cooking temperature. NOTE: The water must not be
above the FILL mark in the water bath, and it must cover the foods you
want to cook. Make sure not to overfill the water bath with water so that
it overflows when the foods are placed in it!
3. If necessary, insert the rack in the water bath if you want to cook foods
that are best placed on the rack.
4. Place the lid on the water bath.
5. Press and hold the on/off button to switch the appliance on. The display
will come on and the temperature is automatically set to 130 °F.
6. Adjust the temperature as required using the + and - buttons. You can
also switch the temperature display between Celsius and Fahrenheit
using the F/C button.
7. Press the Timer/Temp button and adjust the cooking time from 30
minutes to 72 hours using the + and - buttons. The cooking time is set as
standard to 8 hours.
8. Press the Start/Stop button. The appliance preheats the water to the set
temperature before the cooking time begins to count down. The display
shows the current temperature of the water. If you press the F/C button,
the set temperature is displayed for 5 seconds.
9. Once the water has reached the preset temperature, 3 beeps will sound.
Lift the lid off and carefully lay the vacuum-packed food in the water bath
using tongs. Make sure the bags are completely under water, so the food
cooks evenly. Keep fresh and cooked foods apart. Replace the lid.
10. Press the Start/Stop button. The cooking time starts to count down.
11. Once the cooking time has elapsed, 3 beeps will sound and the appliance
will switch itself off. In the event of a temporary power cut during
cooking, the appliance will resume the cooking process if it is turned on
again within 0.5 hours.
12. Do not remove the lid during cooking unless absolutely necessary. The
appliance cooks at a very low temperature, so it takes a long time to
regain any heat loss. If condensation forms on the inside of the lid so that
you cannot see into the water bath, you can tilt the lid gently away from
you so that condensation runs down into the water bath.
