BEfORE fIRST USE
Before using for the first time, the cooking
surface should be cleaned with a moist cloth.
We recommend lightly greasing the cooking
surface when using for the first time. This will
not be necessary on subsequent occasions.
•
It is recommended you remove all labels
and wash the Wok Bowl and Glass Lid in
hot soapy water. Rinse and thoroughly dry.
•
The Wok Base is removable for easy
cleaning (see page 14).
•
Do not immerse the cord and/or
Temperature Control Probe in water or
any other liquid.
NOTE
Before inserting the Temperature
Control Probe into the Probe Socket,
ensure the interior of the Probe Socket
is fully dry. To do this, shake out
excess water then wipe the interior of
the Probe Socket with a dry cloth.
OPERATING yOUR WOK
1.
Place the Wok Bowl onto the Wok Base
and lock into place (see page 15).
2.
Insert the Temperature Control Probe
into the Probe Socket at the side of the
Wok. Plug into a 110/120v power outlet.
Always insert the Temperature Control
Probe into the appliance first, then plug
into main power outlet.
3.
Preheat the Wok on the High Sear
setting for approximately 10 minutes.
The heating arrow will illuminate and
indicates the selected setting.
4.
When the heating arrow no longer
illuminates, the wok has reached the
correct temperature for the selected
setting. The Wok is now ready for use.
The heating arrow will cycle on and off
throughout cooking as the temperature
is maintained by the thermostat.
Never place oil or food into the wok
while it is heating, especially when it
is cold. This will produce a poor
cooking result.
WARNING
Never operate the Hot Wok™ without
the base firmly positioned in place.
NOTE
When a high heat is required (eg. for stir
frying or searing), select the High Sear
setting and allow the heating arrow to
cycle on and off several times. This will
allow the cooking surface to adjust to
a more accurate cooking temperature.
Use only the Temperature Control Probe
provided with the Hot Wok™. Do not use
any other Temperature Control Probe or
connector.
5.
When cooking is completed, turn the
heating arrow to the 'Off' position ('0'
on dial) then unplug from power outlet.
Leave the Temperature Control Probe
connected to the Wok until it has cooled
down.
NOTE
Do not immerse the cord, plug or
Temperature Control Probe in water
or any other liquid.
•
Allow the Wok to cool down
before cleaning.
•
Before cleaning switch the Wok 'Off' and
unplug from the power outlet. Remove
the Temperature Control Probe from the
Probe Socket by depressing the 'Easy
Release' lever on the side of the probe.
•
Do not leave plastic cooking utensils in
contact with the Wok while cooking.
