CAUTION
Poor water quality can lead to corrosion of the Professional Sous Vide Circulator even though it is constructed from
high quality stainless steel, and eventually lead to a potentially hazardous situation. The Professional Sous Vide
Circulator is intended for use with tap water or filtered water only.
Depending on local conditions, the water supply may be ferrous or overly chlorinated. Both of these conditions may
lead to corrosion if used with the Professional Sous Vide Circulator.
Distilled or de-ionized water may lead to corrosion if used with the Professional Sous Vide Circulator.
Use of any liquid medium other than that recommended above will void the product warranty.
Contact the supplier of your Professional Sous Vide Circulator before filling the water bath if you are unsure of your
water supply.
CAUTION
Before filling the water bath, ensure the mains power supply outlet is switched
off
and that the mains lead to the
Professional Sous Vide Circulator is
unplugged
from the mains power supply outlet.
The nature of pouring water is unpredictable and should be done carefully away from any electrical supply to avoid
the risk of electric shock.
Filling The Water
Bath
CAUTION
Always fill the water bath in a safe manner following the manufacturer’s guidelines where possible. It is important
that power to the Professional Sous Vide Circulator is switched off at the mains outlet before filling the water bath
to avoid possible electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not over-fill the water bath. If the bath is over-filled, water may spill out and create a hazardous situation if it
comes near an electrical current.
The minimum water depth is 120 millimetres below the bath rim.
The maximum water depth is 20 millimetres below the bath rim.
If the water level falls below this minimum level during operation, the Professional Sous Vide Circulator will cut power
to the heating element and the alarm will sound. If this occurs, the unit should be powered off, disconnected from
the mains electrical supply and the water level topped up with cold water. Be aware that this may result in the rapid
decrease in the water temperature and the effect of this in relation to the current procedure being carried out must
be considered.
No liability will be accepted if in the normal course of operation the contents of the cooking bags being heated are
damaged due to insufficient water levels or inappropriate temperatures being applied as a result of re-filling.
