COOKING TIPS
Possible Causes for the Problems Arising and Ways of Solving Them
This chapter familiarizes you with the practical tips and solutions to some common problems you may experience when
using the multicooker.
THE DISH IS UNDERCOOKED
Possible Causes
Solving the Problem
The lid of the device was either open or was not
closed properly.
Try to avoid opening the lid while cooking.
Close the lid until it clicks into place. Make sure that the rubber sealing ring
located on the inner side of the lid is not deformed or damaged in any way.
Cooking temperature was not observed because
the bowl and the heating element did not fit
tightly.
There should not be any foreign objects between the lid and the
housing of the device, remove if any.
Always make sure that the heating element is clean and fits tightly
with the bowl before cooking.
Wrong ingredients or settings were chosen.
General proportions were not observed, the size of
the ingredients was too large.
Wrong time settings.
Chosen recipe is not appropriate for the device.
We recommend using recipes adapted for the device. Choose proven
recipes only.
Set the time and cooking programme, choose ingredients, proportions,
and their size according to the recipe.
Steaming: the amount of water in the bowl is too
little to provide enough steam.
Use the amount of water recommended. If in doubt, check the water
level while steaming.
Frying:
Too much oil was added.
Frying ingredients add an amount of oil enough just to cover the
bottom of the bowl.
Follow recommendations given in the recipe while deep frying.
Too much moisture inside the
bowl.
Do not close the lid of the device while frying unless specified in the
recipe. Using frozen ingredients defrost and drain before frying.
Cooking:
the broth boiled away during prepara-
tion of foods with high acidity.
Certain products need to be processed before cooking: washed,
browned, etc. Follow recommendations given in the recipe.
Baking
(dough
did not bake
through):
Proofed dough has reached the
inner lid and covered the steam
valve.
Use a smaller amount of dough.
Too much dough in the bowl.
Take the baked product out of the unit, turn it over and place back.
Bake until ready.
Next time use smaller amount of dough.
THE DISH IS OVERCOOKED
Wrong ingredients, wrong size of in-
gredients, wrong time settings.
We recommend using the recipes adapted for your model. Choose proven recipes
only.
Set the time and cooking programme, choose ingredients, proportions, and the
size of ingredients according to the recipe.
The dish remained in the unit with the
“Keep Warm” on for too long after it’s
been cooked.
We recommend using the “Keep Warm” function moderately. If your device features
the function of disabling the “Keep Warm” in advance, use it to avoid the problem.
LIQUID BOILS AWAY DURING COOKING
Milk boils away.
Depending on the quality of milk used, it may boil away. To avoid this, we recommend
using only ultra-pasteurized milk with the fat content of 2.5% or less. Dilute milk with
water if needed.
Ingredients were not properly pro-
cessed (washed poorly, etc.)
Wrong general proportions or ingre-
dients.
We recommend using the recipes adapted for the device. Try choosing proven
recipes only. Set the time and cooking mode, choose ingredients, proportions,
and the size of ingredients according to the recipe.
Whole grains, meat, fish, and seafood need to be rinsed thoroughly before cook-
ing.
The product froths
We recommend you to rinse the product thoroughly, to remove the steam valve,
or to cook with the lid open
THE DISH IS BURNT
The bowl was not properly washed after last
use.
Non-stick coating is damaged.
Make sure that the bowl is clean and has no coating defects before cooking.
General amount of ingredients is
smaller than recommended.
Use proven recipes, adapted for the device.
Cooking time was too long.
Reduce the cooking time or follow recommendations given in the recipe adapted for your
model.
Frying: oil was not added; the ingre-
dients have not been stirred or turned
over.
Frying products add amount of oil enough just to cover the bottom of the bowl.
Stir ingredients thoroughly while frying or turn over as required.
Stewing: not enough liquid.
Add more liquid. Avoid opening the lid while stewing.
Cooking: not enough liquid (propor-
tions were not observed).
Follow recommended ratio of liquids to solids while cooking.
Baking: the bowl was not greased
before baking.
Grease the bottom and sides of the bowl with butter or oil before baking (do not
pour oil inside).
INGREDIENTS LOOSE THEIR SHAPE WHEN COOKED
Ingredients have been over stirred.
Frying foods, do not stir the ingredients more often than every 5-7 minutes.
Cooking time was too long.
Reduce cooking time or follow recommendations given in the recipe adapted for
the device.
BAKED GOODS ARE OVERLY MOIST
Improper ingredients causing excess mois-
ture have been used (juicy fruits or vegeta-
bles, frozen berries, sour cream, etc.)
Use ingredients according to the recipe. Try to avoid using ingredients
causing excess moisture or use them in smaller amounts.
Baked product has been left in the unit
with the lid closed for too long.
We recommend taking baked product out of the unit right after the baking
cycle finishes or leaving it on the Keep Warm for a short period of time only.
