2.2 For your safety
Below you will find updates to the current user manual concerning the safety of the
QEAMER.
How to avoid life threatening electric shock:
(Correction of the user manual version 400V, p. 8).
•
The QEAMER must always be turned off at the main switch.
•
The power plug must only be pulled out of the socket when the main switch is off.
•
There is a danger to life if live elements are touched.
•
Never remove covers unless you are explicitly instructed to do so.
•
Never remove screws or any attached casing parts.
•
Do not clean the machine or the installation area of the machine with a water
jet, high-pressure cleaner or steam cleaner. Never pour water over the
QEAMER.
Transport position (Correction of the user manual version 230V, p. 29 / 400V, p. 30)
•
The QEAMER must only be transported after system drainage and in its transport
position. The transport position includes a program for system drainage that
prevents frost damage in the winter. If the QEAMER cannot be placed into the
transport position due to a malfunction, it must be stored in a frost-proof
location.
Danger of scalding
•There is a risk of scalding from hot components and liquids.
•Do not place any body parts in the preparation zone while the QEAMER is in
operation.
•The water in the drainage trough may be hot.
•After preparation, the bottom and sides of the bowl may be hot; always remove
the hot bowl using a napkin.
Malfunctions
•In the event of visible damage or detectable malfunctions, essential safety features
may be impaired. Detectable malfunctions include error messages on the display,
leaking water, odors, and heat development.
•In the event of a unit malfunction, it is essential to take appropriate measures
immediately to minimize potential risks and ensure the safety of all involved. First,
the affected device must be immediately taken out of service and all use stopped
to prevent further complications.
•In the event of a malfunction, the main switch of the device must be set to position
0 and then the main plug must be disconnected to interrupt the power supply. To
correct the problem, it is recommendable to have the QEAMER checked and
repaired by a qualified technician.

2.3 Allergens
Food components that can trigger a reaction in the human body cannot be destroyed,
only removed.
The preparation of sisisi bowls in the QEAMER can lead to the carry-over of allergens from
previously prepared dishes. Intermediate rinsing and manual rinsing cannot prevent carry-
over.
Allergens can be carried over through several preparations. In order to keep the QEAMER
parts that come into contact with food free of allergens and their traces, the mixer unit
must be cleaned in accordance with cp. "7 New Definition Cleaning".
If there is any doubt about cleanliness (allergenic particles are not visible to the naked
eye), the serving of meals to persons with a known allergy to one of the allergens used
must be avoided.
Specialist staff or trained personnel must be aware of the allergens used in the QEAMER in
order to avoid allergic reactions.
•
Every sisisi dish has the legally required allergen labeling and possible traces.
•
An overview of all sisisi bowls and the allergens and traces contained therein
that require labelling can be found at: www.sisisi.com/ FAQ & Downloads.
•
In addition to the allergens that require labelling, there are other allergens that
may also be contained in some of the dishes.
If you have any further questions, please contact our customer service.
It is recommended that the additionally available QEAMER sticker, which contains, among
other things, a note on allergen carry-over, is attached to the QEAMER in a clearly visible
position so that, in addition to the packaging, the existing risk of cross-contamination is also
indicated on the QEAMER. QEAMER stickers can be ordered from Carogusto customer
service if required.
3INITIAL OPERATION
3.7 Filling the watertank
The water used for the water tank must be of drinking water quality.
Water suppliers only guarantee the quality of the water supplied up to the
property boundary. Therefore, it is recommended to regularly check the quality
of the water used in monitoring to avoid contamination with microbiology or
pollutants through pipes or water lines."

7REDEFINITION OF CLEANING
To ensure safe preparation of the sisisi bowls, adhere to the following cleaning
procedures and intervals:
7.1 Start of cleaning
The QEAMER can be switched off at any
time by pressing the power button.
After pressing the power button, the rinsing cycle
is started.
During the rinsing cycle, the mixer unit moves
to the rinsing tray. Make sure that no objects
are placed between the mixer unit and the
rinsing tray. No manipulations should be
carried out in the area surrounding the
rinsing tray. During the rinsing cycle, the
"Rinsing" symbol appears in the display.
7.2 Cleaning the mixer unit
The mixer unit must be cleaned and disinfected no later than 4 hours after being put into
operation (interval every 4 hours after subsequent meal preparation).
Alternatively, the mixer head can be replaced with a clean spare mixer head and cleaned
later. In case of heavy soiling, cleaning can be carried out at shorter intervals.
Remove the cover of the preparation unit
by lifting it up and pulling it forward. The
mixier unit will become visible.
Parts of the mixer unit can be very hot. Use
a protective cloth to remove it.
The unlocking lever is located on the right
side of the mixer unit. Before pressing the
lever, hold the mixer unit with the
protective cloth. You can then depress the
unlocking lever and remove the mixer unit
from below.
To clean the mixer head, please disassemble the mixer head into its 3 main
components (hold-down device, steam head and seal).

To avoid any impurities from the dishwasher entering the
mixer unit, you must insert the red sealing plug before the
subsequent cleaning.
The most effective method is to manually clean the
mixer unit with dishwashing detergent, warm water
and a clean sponge. This ensures that all areas are
reliably reached and cleaned. For cleaning, each
single component shall be cleaned by hand (just like
washing dishes).
Cleaning the parts of the mixer unit in the dishwasher* is possible but has to be
independently validated by the operator. After cleaning, remove the red plug and rinse
all components with clean drinking water. Check whether the steam nozzles are open. To
do this, add drinking water to the preparation unit and water should emerge from three
points on each steam finger.
* The cleaning performance of a dishwasher varies depending on the manufacturer,
model, program and detergent used. The removal of allergenic traces in the dishwasher
must be validated by the operator if the subsequently prepared product is to be sold as
free from allergenic traces of previously prepared dishes.
7.3 Cleaning surfaces
Surfaces, including the rinsing tray, must be cleaned and disinfected no later than 4 hours
after the first meal preparation. In case of heavy soiling, cleaning can be done at shorter
intervals. Remove coarse soiling from the work surface and the rinsing tray. Clean the work
surface and the rinsing tray with dishwashing detergent and warm water. Tipp about ½
litre of a mixture of detergent and water into the drain to clean the surface of the hose.
Wipe the cleaned surfaces with a damp, clean cloth to remove any detergent residues.
Allow the surfaces to dry and then disinfect the work surface, rinsing tray and drainage
hose as much as possible.

7.4 Completion of cleaning
After cleaning, dry all components.
Reassemble and install the clean mixer unit only with clean, disinfected hands.
•
Press the seal with the groove into the joint at the
bottom of the hold-down device.
Ensure that the seal is evenly pressed in all around.
•
Place the hold-down device (see 1.3) on top of the
mixer unit.
•
To insert the cleaned mixer unit, please note the
following:
▪
The positioning guide (see 1.3 mixer unit) on
the hold-down device shall point forwards
towards the operator.
▪
Guide the coupling of the mixer unit into the
opening of the preparation unit and press
upwards until the mixer unit clicks into place.
▪
Pull down gently to check that the mixer unit
is correctly engaged.
▪
Now, place the cover of the preparation unit
back into place.
Before placing the cover, disinfect the dry surfaces of the mixer unit with a disinfectant spray.
When using the disinfectant spray, ensure it is foodsafe and suitable for the
materials in use. Follow the instructions on the disinfectant spray. If you have any
questions, please contact the Carogusto customer service.
7.5 Daily cleaning of additional QEAMER parts
Only the mixer unit can be cleaned in the dishwasher. Clean and disinfect all other
removable parts by hand.
•Rinse daily the water tank with clean drinking water. In case the QEAMER is not in
use, for example overnight or on weekends, leave the tank open to dry after rinsing.
•Remove the detachable QEAMER parts daily, eliminate the coarse soiling and then
clean them with a mixture of detergent and water. Dry and disinfect cleaned parts
afterwards. Store clean parts on a cleaned surface in the meantime.
•At least once a day, empty and clean the collection tank underneath the QEAMER.
To do this, rinse it and wash it out with a cleaning agent. It is recommended to soak
the wastewater canister with a cleaning agent once a week to reduce odor
formation.

7.6 Handling during prolonged downtime
If the QEAMER is left unused for an extended period of time, take the following steps:
•
Clean all parts of the QEAMER thoroughly.
•
It is recommended to descale the QEAMER as well (e.g. before operational
holidays).
•
Put the QEAMER into its transport position (see section 10.3 of the user manual).
•Before resuming operation, insert a new filter (please also refer to section 10.1).
Carry out an additional manual rinse, disinfect all surfaces including the mixer head
and seal conduct three steam draws. To perform these draws, please place a bowl
filled with water into the QEAMER and press start. The default program will appear
on the display: press the button on the left ("arrow up") -> confirm the default
program <55ml –10s pause> with OK. Repeat the process three times. The QEAMER
is then ready for use again.
7.7 Recommendation for cleaning and disinfecting agents
The surfaces of the QEAMER can be optimally cleaned with a standard dishwashing
liquid (dishwashing detergent).
When choosing a disinfectant, please ensure it is suitable for use in the food sector.
Carogusto recommends the use of alcohol-based disinfectants.
Please refer to the manufacturer's instructions to see if the disinfectant needs to
be rinsed off before coming into contact with food again.
Cleaning and disinfecting agents must be suitable for the following surfaces: silicone,
PA, PWT, PP, Inox 1.4301 (stainless steel), ABS, ASA, and SMMA. ABS, PA, PP, PWT and
silicone are colored. Manufacturers of cleaning and disinfecting agents can provide
information on the compatibility of their products.
7.8 Food Safety
The cleaning of the QEAMER has been validated within the specified cleaning interval
using the described cleaning process. Alternate cleaning methods (e.g. using a
dishwasher) or a longer interval have to be validated independently by the operator
who holds the responsibility for the food safety of the dishes he offers. A hazard analysis
(HACCP) for meal preparation in the QEAMER is available and can be requested
through our customer service.
Our sisisi QEAMER is exclusively intended for sisisi bowls.
This is crucial in order to get a clear overview of the possible allergens that might
be present on the mixer fingers. If other, home-cooked dishes are heated,
allergens may be introduced that are not contained in any of the sisisi dishes.
These would therefore not be included in the allergen information. In addition, the
process of preserving the sisisi dishes affects the microbiological status. For non
sisisi dishes, this unknown status can negatively affect the cleaning time.
