Indicator for remaining heat
If the mixing bowl is re-inserted into the appliance while it is still warm the
relevant light will show its remaining temperature (only 1 lamp in continuous
mode, e.g. 2 remaining heat 60°C). No tempe rature for warming up, cooking
and steam-cooking can be set unless a time has been preset. Therefore please
always proceed as follows:
Always start by setting a time, then choose the temperature, followed by speed
selection.
Soft start (above 60°C/140°F)
If the turbo button is pressed or the speed selector actuated while the
temperature in the mixing bowl is 60°C (140°F) or above 2 , the electronic
system prevents the food from escaping by delaying the speed increase.
This soft start only works if the food has been heated up or cooked in the
Thermomix TM31. Then the temperature sensor can measure the actual
temperature correctly and control soft start accordingly. If using the
Thermomix TM31 to process food that has not been heated or cooked in
the appliance (e.g. prepar ing a gravy from hot meat juices) you should only
increase the speed slowly and gradually.
cauTIon
Danger of scalding by splashing hot food
never use the turbo button or abruptly increase the speed when processing
hot food (Temperature above 60°c), especially if it has not been heated in
the Thermomix TM31. never hold the measuring cup when processing hot
food.
Gentle heating setting
Speeds 2 and 3 are designed as gentle heating setting. When these speeds are
selected the temperature will rise slowly leading to gentle cooking of the food.
