Hendi sous vide device
Sous vide is a method of cooking food, sealed in
plastic vacuum bags, in a water bath at precisely
controlled temperatures in order to provide con-
sistently high quality results.
Big advantage of the Hendi sous vide oven is that
because of the high precision thermostat (0.5°C),
food can be effortlessly prepared perfectly. If you
make steaks in the sous vide oven medium rare,
the steak will be medium rare throughout from
edge to edge. No guesswork or critical timing. Your
steak will be perfectly cooked if you set the time
and temperature correctly, while no attention is
required during operation. Because the products
are cooked vacuum sealed, you prevent the loss
of flavour and nutrition, keeping the food flavour-
ful, tender and moist. Some long duration settings
even allow significant improvement in tenderness
while keeping flavor.
The Hendi sous vide oven saves you time. You can
prepare the food before peak times. If the sous vide
settings are correct, no attention is required during
operation. Effortless cooking.
The Hendi sous vide saves you money. The food will
shrink less, thus retain more moisture. As pas-
turiatsation of food is possible, properly sous vide
prepared food can be safely kept for up to 3 weeks
longer than conventionally cooked food.
The Hendi sous vide oven saves you work. You can
add marinade/herbs directly to the food before
cooking.
Preparations before using for the first time
• Check to make sure the appliance is undamaged.
In case of any damage, contact your supplier im-
mediately and do NOT use the appliance.
• Remove all the packing material and protection
film (if applicable).
• Keep the packaging if you intend to store your ap-
pliance in the future.
• Clean the appliance with luke-warm water and
a soft cloth.
• Place the appliance on a level and steady surface,
unless mentioned otherwise.
• Make sure there is enough clearance around the
appliance for ventilation purposes.
• Position the appliance in such a way that the plug
is accessible at all times.
Important: For item 225448 (GN 1/1), please install

1.1 Fill the container with (hot) water and make
sure that the water will not come over the edge
on the inner mark (groove) of the water tank.
Remember that placing food in the water will
also raise the water level – it should still not
pass aforementioned groove. Water should be
filled up to the Max Mark no matter the amount
of food you are going to put into the water bath
for cooking.

3. Switch it OFF
3.1 Switch it off by press the ON/OFF switch Icon one time.
Closing the lid
After you set the time and temperature and put
vacuumed food in the water tank, you need to close
the lid. To position the lid correctly on the tray, open
the vent valve first. Only then you can position the
lid correctly. As soon as the lid closes well, close
the vent valve.
Put the vacuumed pouch into the water when the
water has reached the target temperature for
cooking. If you use more bags, put them in the rack
and be sure that all pouches are completely sub-
merged.
Opening the lid
To remove the lid the vent valve should be opened
first, because low air pressure under the lid will
keep it in place. Warning: steam can escape. Cau-
tion: risk of burns.
After use
Drain the water out of the container by pressing the
tap and turn it ¼ to the left. You close the tap again
by pushing it and turn it ¼ to the right. Make sure
that the button pops up slightly, this indicates the
safety lock is engaged.
Note: Drain tap function is available for item
225448 only.
Cleaning and maintenance
• Always remove the plug from the socket before
cleaning the appliance.
• Beware: Never immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid!
• Clean the outside of the appliance with a damp
cloth (water with mild detergent).
• Never use aggressive cleaning agents or abra-
sives. Do not use any sharp or pointed objects.
Do not use petrol or solvents! Clean with a damp
cloth and detergent if necessary. Do not use
abrasive materials.
• Clean the ventilation slots (if applicable) with the
vacuum cleaner.
• Always remove the water after use to prevent li-
mescale deposits.
• Dry the inside of the water tank with a dry soft
cloth.
• Ensure that no limescale forms at the bottom of
the water tank.
Basic principles of sous vide cooking
Vacuum packing
The food should always be packed vacuum or in any
case packed in a plastic bag without air (no buoy-
ancy) so that the heated water will have a direct
contact to the food through the plastic. Spices and
marinades can be added in advance so that these
can be absorbed by the food and the juices and
flavors will be kept. The best is to use an vacuum
inside chamber packaging machine. The cheapest
functional alternative is to use airtight ziplock bags
that the air has been squeezed out of, though the
results of this method may be poor.
Cooking
The correct temperature is of great importance for
the final result. For meat and fish the minimum
temperature should be 54°C in order to prevent the
growth of bacteria.
Times are always minimum times. The thickness
of the product has a strong influence on the whole
cooking process.

EN
Some examples:
Steak:
- Rare 54-56˚ C
- Medium 56-58˚ C
- Well done 58-64 ˚C at a time of 1 to 4 hours.
Succade:
- 55-58 ˚ C for a period of at least 20 hours and it
can reach up to 60 hours depending on thickness.
Fish:
The cooking times are considerably shorter. Minor
changes to the temperature setting have a major
influence on the result. Experimentation is certain-
ly required. We highly recommend doing research
on the internet, there are several great (free)
sources of detailed information available*.
Pasteurization:
The storage time of vacuum packed products that
are cooked, can be extended considerably if they
are cooled rapidly after cooking (with a shock cool-
er or in a basin with ice cubes). If stored at 2˚C
they can be stored up to 3 weeks after preparation.
Note that minimum times / temperatures apply to
kill the bacteria, which are highly dependent on
the product. It is food-safest to find basic sous vide
recipes online and carefully modify them to your
wishes.
Always follow the HACCP guidelines
