USER’S MANUAL
UTILISATION
INTRODUCTION :
The Lacanche multi-cooker is a multi-use cooking tool that allows cooking of all kinds of food through three
different cooking functions.
• The “STEAMER” cooking function allows cooking of vegetables, fish, meat, or any preparations
needing soft, regular and homogenous cooking, with a high level of moisture.
• The “DOUBLE-BATH” function allows the maintaining in temperature of prepared food, the soft
cooking at controlled temperature and the making of preserves.
• The “BOILING” function allows the cooking through immersion, the reheating of vacuum packed food,
the reheating of pasta and rice, and convection cooking in temperature controlled water.
The thermostatically controlled temperature offers the user a complete array of possible use.
Numerous recipes are available on our website: http://www.lacanche.com.
PRECAUTIONS :
è This appliance is not for use by children. If unfamiliar with this appliance, use should be overseen
by a competent person who has read all the relevant information. Before use, it is mandatory to remove all
the internal and external plastic packing, failure to do so will cause irreversible damage to the steel walls
of the cooker.
è Wash the tank of the multi-cooker with non-aggressive soapy water
IMPORTANT : During any use, the unit must never be left unattended
Before any use:
è Make sure that the water-supply is opened
èShut the drain valve situated below the tank inside the cabinet

USER’S MANUAL
USING THE MULTI-COOKER :
The tank of the multi-cooker fills-up with water through the
water-filling valve situated on the back wall of the tank.

Depending on the selected cooking function, the multi-cooker can be filled-up in two different ways:
• Automatically for the “STEAMER” function
• Manually for the “DOUBLE BATH” and “BOILING” functions
FUNCTIONS
1) “STEAMER” function: steam cooking
• Make sure that the manual water supply switch is on the lower position.

• After a 15-second delay, the yellow LED turns-on.The multi-cooker fills-up to the first mark, through the
water-filling valve situated on the back wall of the tank. (“STEAMER” level.)
• To compensate for any evaporation during the cooking process, the automatic refill system will re-
adjust the water level automatically by refilling the tank to the first mark. The yellow LED will turn-on
each time the water refill activates.

USER’S MANUAL
• Place the perforated Gastronorm 2/3 perforated pan (supplied) in the tank of the multi-cooker. Place
the food to be cooked in the pan and cover it with the lid (supplied) if necessary. Cook accordingly to
the recipe.
• To stop the function, place the thermostat on the 0 position
• Drain the tank after usage
2) “DOUBLE BATH” function: cooking, slow cooking, controlled temperature cooking, holding hot
• Toggle the manual water supply switch upward. The yellow LED turns on. The multi-cooker fills-up
through the water-filling valve situated on the back wall of the tank.
• Toggle the switch downward to stop the flow of water when the desired level is reached. The yellow
LED turns off.

• Turn the temperature knob clockwise to desired temperature. The white LED turns on.
• The heating time depends on the water level and the final temperature desired.
• The White LED situated at the center of the control panel will turn-off once the desired temperature is
reached. The multi-cooker is ready to use.

• It is also possible to place jars, terrines, dishes, pots and pans directly on the Heating element
shield/rack, or in the perforated Gastronorm 2/3 pan supplied with the multi-cooker to maintain in
temperature, and cook at low temperature (lower than 90°). In this case, the containers will be partially
immerged according to their size, to insure sufficient heat exchange. To obtain best result, it is usually
recommended to cover the items with a tight fitting lid.
• To maintain food at temperature, place one or several Gastronorm pans (2/3, 1/3, etc.) containing food
and preparation in the multi-cooker and cover it with the corresponding lid.
• To stop the “DOUBLE BATH” function, place the thermostat on the 0 position.
• Drain the tank after usage.

depending on the result you wish to attain.
• To stop the “BOILING” function, place the thermostat on the 0 position.
• Drain the tank after usage.

USER’S MANUAL
SUMMARY OF ESSENTIAL POINTS
RELATING TO AUTOMATIC REFILL:
• As soon as the temperature handle is turned to the left
(clockwise) the tank of the multi-cooker will start filling-up
automatically, up to the first mark (“STEAMER” level)
• As a safety, the automatic water refill is set at the
factory to reach the first mark at the bottom of the
tank, situated right above the heating element.
• The automatic refill system maintains the level of water at the
first mark (“STEAMER” level) automatically and indefinitely,
so the heating element remains submerged at all time.
• Since the automatic water refill system functions only to
the first mark level (“STEAMER” level), any water level
above this mark (“DOUBLE BATH” and “BOILING”
level) must be reached using the manual refill switch.
• It is possible to use the manual refill switch at any point before
or during any cooking function to adjust the water level to your
specific needs. This adjustment doesn’t affect the minimum
water level (“STEAMER” level) which is managed by the
automatic water refill system. If the water level reache the
minimum level, the automatic water refill will take over.

USER’S MANUAL
SAFETY AND SECURITY SWITCH :
FUNCTION:
To prevent any overheating, a security/safety switch will shut off the unit if the automatic watr refill fails or
if the water supply is cut-off, o if the water level in the tank drops below the level of the heating element.
This safety/security switch will cut-off all electrical supply to the unit and it needs to be reset by hand.
MANUAL RESET OF THE SAFETY/SECURITY SWITCH:
The manual reset is done by pushing the red button situated below the tank in the cupboard.
