They must also know the general safety regulations of the room where they are working. •...
2.2 SAFETY DEVICES INSTALLED ON THE MACHINE The thermal circulator is provided with safety measures for electrical and mechanical protection both during operation and during cleaning and maintenance. The safety devices against electrical and mechanical risks have been applied in compliance with the 2014/35/EU Low Voltage Directives (26 February 2014), Electromagnetic Compatibility 2014/30/EU (26 February 2014), to Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC (17 May 2006) and the standards CEI EN 603351-1 (Safety of household and similar electrical appliances) and CEI EN 60335-2-74 (Particular requirements for...
2.4 INTENDED USE The thermal circulator is designed for sous vide (vacuum) in water cooking applications. Cooking must be carried out using an immersion tank designed for use, clean and suitably insulated and covered with specific insulating spheres. Improvised lids must not be applied as these could favor the concentration of water vapor in the vicinity of the machine with consequent damage.
2.7 SAFETY GUARDS AND DEVICES Before proceeding with the use of the machine, make sure that the safety devices are CAUTION! intact and correctly positioned. Check their presence and efficiency at the beginning of each work shift; otherwise, notify the maintainer and do not start the machine. A.

5.2 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Before inserting the plug into the socket, carefully check that the voltage of your mains corresponds to the value in VAC shown on the machine plate and that the power socket and the power supply line are correctly sized with respect to the power of the device (also shown on the technical data plate in W).
6. MACHINE USE 6.1 CONTROLS Display Start Home Directional Arrows Back 6.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROLS • "Eco": button that halves the consumption of electric power but increases the pre-heating time of the machine; it allows the use of the thermal circulator in conjunction with other household appliances.
6.2.1 Description of the symbols on the main screen Current water Eco mode ON Heating ON temperature Wi-Fi 25,5 15,2 connection ON Core probe temperature (N/C = external probe not connected) 60,0˚C 1:00 Desired Desired cooking water time time On subsequent screens and during the cooking phases, some of the symbols shown above may not be present.

• “Time": it allows you to manually set the desired cooking time. By pressing the "Ok" button, you can set and/or modify the time parameters using the "Directional Arrows", then you can confirm the desired operations using the "Ok" button. There are two specific cases: Cooking with the core probe: the time runs from the time when the probe reaches the previously set core temperature.
To change the setting, press "Ok" and use the "Directional Arrows" to choose the type of timer to set. • "Overtemperature Alert": it allows you to manually set the percentage of water temperature above which an overtemperature warning is activated. In the event of overtemperature detected, a message is displayed that allows you to choose whether to continue cooking or to leave the program in use.
6.3.1 Installing the Sous Vide Technology Wi-Fi APP The "Sous Vide Technology Wi-Fi" APP is available for download on the "Google Play™" stores for mobile devices with the Android™ operating system (version 5 and above) and on the "APP Store" for mobile devices Wi-Fi with an operating system "IOS"™...

5. Select the drop-down menu at the top left to access the following features: a. “INSTANT COOK": it allows you to set the time and temperature parameters directly from the APP. • To select the cooking time, please touch the digits in the center of the circle to choose whether to change the hours and/or minutes, then turn the arrow on the selection circle to set the desired values.
6.3.2 INSTANT COOK through the APP A. Connect to the "Sous Vide Technology Wi-Fi" application previously downloaded to your device (PC/tablet/smartphone). • Through the "Settings" section of your device (PC/tablet/smartphone), connect to the selected Wi-Fi network. B. Once the mobile device has been connected to the thermal circulator via Wi-Fi network, a connection signal will appear on the screen.
• The acoustic signal has a duration of 1 minute, at the end of which the cooking process is automatically started. You can interrupt the acoustic signal and immediately start the cooking phase by pressing the "Start" button. CAUTION: For the correct sanitization and preservation of food, we recommend cooking according to the times and temperatures suggested by the HACCP protocol.
7. MACHINE CLEANING CAUTION! Before performing any cleaning operation, disconnect the power plug from the mains to completely isolate the machine from the rest of the system. Make sure the machine is cold. 7.1 GENERAL INFORMATION - The machine must be cleaned only when it is at room temperature. For cleaning, use a damp, soft cloth with neutral detergent.
WATER LEVEL ERROR: 1. Check that the water level is correct (between the MIN. and MAX. values); otherwise, restore the level correctly. TEMPERATURE ERROR DETECTED COMPARED TO THAT SET: 1. Check that the machine is not set on the wrong temperature scale (°C or °F). 2.
