Using Non-Pressure Cooking Smart Programmes
Smart Programme: Sauté
The Sauté Smart Programme is similar to using a frying pan, griddle or flat-top
grill. Use Sauté to simmer, reduce and thicken liquids, stir-fry meals, and to
caramelise vegetables and sear meat before or after cooking.
1.
Ensure the inner pot is in position in the cooker base.
Do not use a lid
.
2.
Connect the power lead to a 220–240 V power source. The cooker goes
to
Standby
mode and the display indicates
OFF
.
3.
Press
Sauté
to select the Sauté Smart Programme.
Note:
The Pre-set for the Sauté Smart Programme is Custom. No selection is required.
4.
When the cooking time flashes, you may press the dial to select the default
time, or turn the dial to adjust the cooking time between
1
minute and
1
hour.
Press the dial to confirm the change and go to the next field.
Note:
Cooking time adjustments are saved to the Smart Programme when cooking
begins. Subsequent selection will activate the last saved time setting.
5.
When the temperature level flashes, you may press the dial to select the
default temperature, or turn the dial to toggle between
Custom
,
Low
and
High
settings. Press the dial to confirm the change and go to the next field.
Note:
When
Custom
is selected the default temperature level
LE 1
will flash. Press the
dial to select the default temperature level, or turn the dial to scroll from LE 1 to LE 6.
The level scale is similar to an electric hob and can be used to reduce, simmer, sauté,
stir-fry, sear and brown. Press the dial to select the desired temperature level.
6.
Press
Start
to begin. The display indicates
On
and the progress bar displays
Pre-heating
.
7.
When the target temperature is reached, the progress indicator goes to
Cooking
and the display will momentarily indicate
Hot
before the cooking
timer begins counting down.
8.
Add recipe ingredients to the inner pot and sauté according to recipe
instructions.
Note:
If your food ingredients are added before the inner pot has reached the target
temperature, your display may never read
Hot
. This is normal.
9.
If the ingredients have been sautéed to the desired “doneness” before
the time expires, press
Cancel
to end the Smart Programme. If the Smart
Programme is allowed to complete, the cooker goes to
Standby
mode
and the display indicates
End
.
