Hot liquid or hot contents may splash and cause scalding.
• The filled sous-vide bag and the water must not combine to exceed the
maximum 2.2-litre filling quantity of the mixing bowl ('max' marking).
• Take out the hot sous-vide bag with care.
• Proceed with caution when transferring food following the long cooking
process. As the blade cover is not secured, it may fall out when removing
the food and cause splashing.
If the opening in the mixing bowl lid is firmly sealed, excess pressure
can build up in the mixing bowl during the cooking process. The hot
contents may erupt from the appliance and cause scalding.
• To allow steam to escape at all times and prevent excess pressure, ensure
the opening in the mixing bowl lid is never blocked or covered – either
from the inside (e.g. by the contents) or from the outside (e.g. by a towel).
• Never use anything but the original accessories (measuring cup,
simmering basket, splash guard, Varoma® dish) to protect against
splashes through the opening in the mixing bowl lid.
• Ensure that the sous-vide bag is no larger than 20 x 30 cm.
• When vacuum packing food, use only boil-proof pouches that are suitable
for sous-vide cooking and freezing. Pay attention to the stated service life
(cooking time for a single use) when purchasing pouches.
• Observe the temperature specifications in the recipe and in the instruction
manual. Do not use a higher temperature under any circumstances.
• The blade cover may only be used at temperatures up to 100 °C. Never
use the Varoma® function or the maximum temperature in combination
with the blade cover.
• If you notice during the cooking process that the opening in the mixing
bowl lid is blocked, unplug Thermomix®. Do not touch the controls.
The use of attachments, accessories or items not recommended or
sold by Vorwerk, or the use of defective or incompatible accessory
parts may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
• Use only the recommended original Vorwerk accessories.
• Only use the blade cover in the Thermomix® TM6 or TM5 and never in any
older predecessor models.
• Do not make any modifications to the blade cover.
• Do not use the blade cover if it is damaged.
If the blade cover comes into contact with the mixing knife or other
accessories when the appliance is running, it could crack or break.
• Ensure that the blade cover is correctly positioned on the mixing knife
before setting the speed.
• Never exceed speed 1 and only use reverse rotation.
• Do not use the blade cover attachment in combination with other
accessories within the Thermomix® bowl (e.g. butterfly attachment or
simmering basket).
• Do not add any foods that could damage or block the blade cover. Always
follow the instructions in the recipe regarding the ingredients and
quantities.
