SETTING UP YOUR SOUS VIDE COOKER
USING YOUR SOUS VIDE COOKER
Your Sous Vide Cooker works best with
straight-sided cookware and cooking vessels;
it is also compatible with slightly tapered
cookware and cooking vessels. Only use the
Sous Vide Cooker on cooking vessels with a
minimum height of 4.75 inches. The bottom of
the LOWER HOUSING must rest on the bottom
of the cooking vessel as shown in Figure 1.
For larger cooking vessels, the hinge of the
CLAMP must rest on the rim of the cooking
vessel as shown in Figure 2. Never use your
Sous Vide Cooker suspended as illustrated
in Figure 3 without either the bottom of the
LOWER HOUSING on the bottom of the cooking
vessel, or the hinge of the CLAMP resting on
the rim of the cooking vessel.
Only use the appliance in a cooking vessel that
is placed on a stable, level surface.
Place a trivet or potholder underneath the
cooking vessel to avoid damage to your
countertop or table as cooking vessel will get
hot.
Add water to the cooking vessel, ensuring that the level is between the MINIMUM FILL LINE and MAXIMUM FILL LINE on
the LOWER HOUSING. (We refer to this water that is added to the cooking vessel and then heated and circulated as the
“water bath.”)
Be mindful that once you add your cooking bags with food to the pot, the water level will rise. We recommend filling the
empty vessel with water only to the midway point of the MINIMUM FILL LINE and MAXIMUM FILL LINE. Check the water
level again once you have added your food to ensure that you do not exceed the MAXIMUM FILL LINE.
Plug the POWER CORD into a grounded 120V outlet.
The Sous Vide Cooker uses touch sensitive controls. The buttons respond to light
fingertip touch. There is no need to press firmly on any button on the CONTROL PANEL.
Always contact POWER BUTTON and SET BUTTON within the circle as shown in Figure
4 not outside the circle as shown in Figure 5.
Touch the POWER BUTTON for 5 seconds until you hear a beep and the CONTROL
PANEL illuminates.
You can change the temperature between Fahrenheit and Celsius by simultaneously
touching both the POWER BUTTON and SET BUTTON.
Touch and release the SET BUTTON to scroll through the SET TIME and SET TEMP
settings. The display for the selected setting will blink indicating you can make changes. It will stop blinking automatically
after 10 seconds.
Use the SET BUTTON to change the Programmed Time (SET TIME). The time is displayed in 00:00 (hh:mm). When the hh
(
00
:00) begins blinking, rotate the ADJUSTMENT WHEEL until you reach your desired time. Touch the SET BUTTON again.
When the mm (00:
00
) begins blinking, turn the ADJUSTMENT WHEEL until you reach your desired time.
When the Programmed Water Temperature (SET TEMP) setting in the upper right hand corner is blinking, you can adjust the
cooking temperature by rotating the ADJUSTMENT WHEEL.
NOTE: You cannot change the Elapsed Time (WORK TIME) setting. This feature will show the amount of time the Sous Vide
Cooker has been working in case you do not turn it off once the programmed time has elapsed.
Once your time and temperature settings are made, touch the POWER BUTTON to start the water heating and circulator.
The Current Water Temperature in the center of the display indicates the actual water temperature of the water bath. When
the Current Water Temperature reaches the Programmed Water Temperature (SET TEMP), the appliance will beep every 3
seconds, indicating that you should now add your food to the cooking vessel. Once the food has been added, touch the SET
BUTTON for 3 seconds to cancel the alarm and begin the countdown timer.
When the timer finishes counting down, the appliance will again begin beeping every 3 seconds. Touch the SET BUTTON for
3 seconds to cancel the alarm. The Elapsed Time (WORK TIME) will continue counting even after the Programmed Time (SET
TIME) has expired.
To turn the Sous Vide Cooker off, touch the POWER BUTTON for 5 seconds.
