Introduction
By circulating the water and heating it to the exact temperature the cooker cooks the food in vacuum sealed or Zip Lock bags. The sous vide method represents a slow way of cooking due to which the food will be always cooked evenly and keeps all the nutrients as well as flavors. You cannot overcook your food; with the cooker it will be always moist and juicy.

Getting to know the appliance
Settings
Change of the temperature units
Press and hold the control button for three seconds – the units get switched
Temperature and time calibration
The temperature sensor is very precise; it is calibrated in the manufacture.
However, if you wish to calibrate it according to your own thermometer,
process as follows:
- Press and hold the control button for five seconds; the mode of temperature calibration will be activated.
- Keep turning the control button clockwise and anticlockwise until you have reached the required temperature.
- Once you set the temperature, press the control button again and set up the timer (once 00: starts to blink) by turning the control button clockwise and anticlockwise.
- Press the button again and in the same way set up the minutes (:00).
- Once the LED light gets red, the cooker is operating.
The flow direction settings
The cooker can circulate the water in both directions (clockwise or anticlockwise). Also, the flow can be directed against the pot wall to avoid direct contact with the food prepared or to ensure that the water will circulate in the whole pot and will not be stopped by the food bags.
- Turn the pump cover clockwise; now it can be moved with.
- Set the openings at the pump sides as required, insert the blocks into the grooves and by moving the pump cover anticlockwise, click it back to the initial position.
Operation
- Make sure the cooker is unplugged.
- Attach the round clamp to the pot rim.
- Insert the cooker into the clamp.
- Fill the pot so that the water is between MIN and MAX indicator.
- Place the pot with cooker near a socket and make sure it is not in the proximity of a heat source such as a stove.
- Plug the cooker.
- To set up the cooker turn the control button until you have reached the required value; press the button. Set up the cooking time in the same way.
- Red LED light – the cooker is on
- Blue LED light – water has reached the required temperature, cutdown has been started
- Green LED light – time is up, the end of the cooking cycle
- Once the food is finished, press the control button and the cooker shuts down.
Cleaning
- Turn the cover clockwise to disassemble it from the cooker.
- Turn the cover lid clockwise to disassemble it from the cover.
- Both the pump cover and the cover lid can be washed under running water or in dishwasher.
- To clean the heating unit, propeller and sensor use soap water and soft brush; then rinse them under running water. Make sure you rinse only the metal parts. The upper part of the cooker should not get in contact with water.
- Let the cooker body dry prior to reassembly.
- Limescale build-up can interfere with the proper functioning of the device. Therefore we recommend periodically adding a descaling agent to a water bath, especially in areas with hard water (do not use the same water in which food is prepared).
Most Common Issues
When operating, the cooker is whistling.
It is caused by the motor and cooling unit; it is a common phenomenon.
When operating, the cooker is screeching.
The pump cover is not attached properly. Turn the cooker off, let it cool
and then attach the pump cover properly. If screeching continues, it can
indicate that the propeller is not set straight. Unplug the appliance, remove
the pump cover and push the propeller to the central position.
The cooker makes fizzy, bubbly or splashy sounds.
Make sure that the water level is in between MIN and MAX indicators; adjust
the water volume if necessary.
The cooker deforms fish fillets or breaks eggs.
Set up the pump cover so that the water flow is directed on the pot wall,
away from the vacuumed food bags.
LED lights or the digits flash during cooking.
It is common; it does not influence the cooker performance.
In case there is another problem or defect, contact the seller. Do not ever try to disassemble, repair or modify the appliance in any way. Any attempts to disassemble, remodel or repair the appliance will automatically terminate the warranty period; such actions may also damage the appliance or cause injury or property damage.
