2. Using Your Soup Maker
A. Using your Soup Maker for Cooking
n
Prepare your ingredients.
n
Remove the lid (see section1)
n
Add your base ingredients and then replace the lid and measuring cup, ensuring the pouring spout on the jar is
covered by the protrusion on the lid.
n
Plug the unit into an appropriate mains socket. The ‘ON/OFF’ button will begin to flash.
n
Press the ‘ON/OFF’ button and it will stop flashing. The unit is now in ‘stand-by’ mode and is ready to use.
n
Now set the cooking time. The timer can be set for up to 30 minutes. When switched on, the timer will default
to ‘0’ and you can then set the cooking time by pressing the ‘+’ or ‘-’ buttons. Every time you press one of these
buttons, you will hear a beep and the time will increase or decrease by one minute. By holding the button down,
you can scroll through the time quickly.
NB: You can increase or decrease the cooking time using the ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons at any time during the cooking
cycle. The screen displays the cooking time remaining.
n
Next, select the heat setting. There are 3 possible settings:
o SIMMER: up to 80°C - use to simmer soups and liquids
o SAUTE: up to 90°C - use to brown base ingredients
o HIGH: up to 100°C - use to bring liquids to the boil
n
To reset the settings, press the ‘ON/OFF’ button. The button will resume flashing and any setting you had selected
will be cancelled.
n
When you’ve selected the desired cooking time and temperature, the unit will immediately start the cooking
cycle for the programmed time.
N.B
The appliance may smoke a little and release a slight odour during first use; this is normal.
n
The cooking time and heat setting can be changed at any time during the cycle. You may want to adjust the heat
setting as you add more ingredients to your recipe.
n
Add extra ingredients e.g. further vegetables and stock by either removing and replacing the lid, or via the
measuring cup. Ensure the lid and measuring cup are replaced correctly each time ingredients are added.
n
You can use the slow stir function during cooking to gently mix ingredients. See section 2B for more information.
WARNING:
There may be a lot of steam when the lid or cup are removed. To avoid burning, cover with a cloth or
take particular care when removing either parts.
