TIP –"SOUS-VIDE COOKING"
►As the supplied vacuum bag is suitable for
temperatures between , it can be
used for the so-called "sous-vide" cooking process
(vacuum cooking).
"Sous-vide" is French and means "under vacuum".
In vacuum cooking, the food (usually fish or meat, but
vegetables can also be used) is vacuum-sealed in a
bag and then cooked in water or steam cooked at a
relatively low temperature (212 to 194 ). The
advantage of this is that volatile flavours or aroma are
not lost during cooking. The food does not dry out

and the vitamins and flavours are preserved. Herbs or
spices that are vacuum sealed in the bag with the food
give off a more intense flavour.

Cleaning the appliance
Clean the surface of the appliance with a lightly
moistened cloth and a mild detergent.
Wipe off the upper ⑨and the lower sealing rings
⑤, as well as the press seal ⑩with a damp cloth.
Ensure that the appliance is dry before using it
again.
Storage
The appliance has a built-in cable retainer ③on the
underside of the housing, on which you can wrap the
power cable when it is not in use. This prevents the
power cable from getting caught or soiled, or becoming
a source of danger by hanging loosely down.
CAUTION
Possible damage to the appliance.
►Do not click the appliance lid ①closed for storage!
When the appliance lid ①is clicked closed it exerts
permanent pressure on the upper ⑨and lower
sealing rings ⑤, as well as the press seal ⑩. This
can negatively affect their function.
