10.
Before removing food from the container, turn off the power at the a/c outlet
and unplug the power cord from the wall. Once unplugged, remove the sous
vide from the container.
TIP: With shorter cooking times, evaporation will not be an issue but with foods
that require longer cooking times, we recommend to cover your cooking
container with aluminium foil or plastic wrap to minimise loss of liquids due to
steam and evaporation.
TIP: Food must be completely submerged to ensure safe and uncontaminated
contents. If required, use heavy metal items such as a spoon, stainless steel
weights or similar items to assist in weighing the food bag or pouch down.
Note: Your Westinghouse Sous Vide Immersion cooker requires a 6 litre to 15 litre
container or pot to work effectively. The unit will not function unless there is
ted on the stainless
steel sleeve.

CLEANING & CARE
CLEANING
1.
DANGER: Under no circumstances immerse the power cord, mains plug
or sous vide body body in water or any other liquid.
2. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents. The outside surface may be
wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth and dried thoroughly. If necessary, a mild
dishwashing detergent may be applied to the cloth but not directly applied to the
sous vide immersion cooker.
3. Due to water mineral content, the sous vide immersion cooker may have scale
build-up over time. To remove scale build up, add the juice of a lemon or a few
tablespoons of descaler solution to water and run the unit for 30 minutes
without foods present in the container. Rinse thoroughly
4. The unit may be partially disassembled for cleaning purposes via removal of the
stainless steel sleeve. To remove the sleeve, unscrew and remove the screw on
the left hand side of the sous vide immersion cooker. Once the screw has been
removed, twist the stainless steel sleeve in an anti-clockwise direction and slide
off. The element, probes and circulator shaft can now be easily accessed for
manual cleaning. The sleeve may be further disassembled by removing the plastic
end cap. To remove, grip stainless steel sleeve and turn the plastic end cap in a
clockwise direction. Reverse the steps above for reassembly.
Note: When reassembling the metal sleeve to the sous vide body, line up the
dimple closest to the max level indicator with the arrow on the sous vide body
before twisting to lock.

TROUBLESHOOTING
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
If the sous vide fails to operate:
1. Check to make sure the sous vide is plugged in correctly and securely. If it is
not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and plug it back in securely.
2. Check for a blown or tripped circuit breaker in your home. If these seem to be
working correctly, test another appliance in the same outlet to ensure the outlet
is working correctly.
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE SOLVES THE PROBLEM, DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR
REPAIR THE APPLIANCE YOURSELF.
