WIFI FUNCTION
A. Tips
- If you use a dual-frequency Wi-Fi router, set a separate SSID and password for the 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network.
- As the sous vide device’s Wi-Fi module is designed for the 2.4GHz frequency channel, your mobile phone needs to connect to the SSID of the router’s 2.4GHz Wi-Fi frequency.
- After your mobile phone has successfully connected to the Wi-Fi network, open the app and complete each step.
- Check whether the correct SSID name is displayed in the app, then proceed and finish the configuration.
- The configuration should be complete in less than a minute. If this is not the case, tap the + in the top right of the screen and follow the instructions in the app. Press the Wi-Fi button on the sous vide unit again.
- If you open the app before your phone is connected to the Wi-Fi, quit the app (don’t for-get to also shut it down in the background). Restart the app and the SSID of the correct Wi-Fi network will be displayed.
B. Wi-Fi setup
- Download the app on your mobile phone, open it and enter your username and pass-word to login or register as a new user.

vinegar and water.

by vinegar. If the eye is still red, painful, tears and is sensitive to light,
medical advice is required.)
Trouble Shooting FAQ
Noise :
Under normal operation the system will hum due to the motor, impeller and
cooling fan in operation.
Slurping noise:
Your pump has formed a water vortex like when you are emptying out a bathroom
sink or tub. Add more water or gently disturb water with a spoon. There is no
sure way to eliminate a vortex from forming due to the pump rotation but
usually will go away on its own.
Gurgling + Woosh noise:
The pump is sucking air – add more water. You should also see small bubbles in
your tank.
Food damage:
The pump’s water jet is cracking eggs or damaging fish fillets: Turn the pump
outlet to face the container wall; this will greatly temper the flow of the
pump output. It is also good practice to bag eggs to prevent them from being
“blown” around in certain containers.
System will not turn on:
Check power plug and breakers.
Low water level alarm:
Add more water – the water level can be dropped during operation by the pump
due to water turbulence.
L ow water level alarm turns on after a few seconds of operation:
Add more water – The pump generates “waves” – sometimes these waves will cause
the water level at the sensors to fluctuate up and down. The waves sometimes
drop the water level right under the sensor and will cause a low water alarm.
This is normal and you just need to add more water.
Temperature read does not match thermometer:
Sous Vide circulators are calibrated to a scientific platinum primary standard
which is far more accurate than store thermometers.
Lights in house are slightly flickering when system is on:
This is normal as the circulator is modulating power.
Error code EE1 will be appeared in below situation with alarm sound:
- No water in tank
- Water below minimum level
- Appliance in situation of short circuit
