How to use the Sous Vide menu

Place the Sunbeam Duos on a flat, level surface.

Plug in the unit. To turn the unit on, press the POWER button. The unit will beep, and the indicator lights and the screen will illuminate. The Sunbeam Duos will default to the Sous Vide menu, on the 50°C setting.

1.Fill the cooking pan with the desired amount of water, and replace the lid. Ensure the water will cover the food pouches and is above the FILL line in the pan. View the Sous Vide Temperature and Time guide on page 12.

TIP: To speed up the time needed to reach the desired temperature, fill with warm water.

2.If the menu is not set to Sous Vide, set the cooking menu by scrolling through the MENU button until a light appears next to Sous Vide on the screen, and the temperature shows 50°C.

3.The default temperature is set to 50°C. To change the temperature, press the and buttons until your desired temperature appears in the screen.

4.To select the time, press the TIME button, and then press the and buttons, until your desired time appears in the LCD screen. Each button press will adjust the time by 10 minutes, or if the button is held this will change the time more quickly.

5.Once you have set the desired MENU, TEMP and TIME settings, press START. The unit will start to preheat.

6.The Sunbeam Duos needs to gain temperature before the food pouches can be placed in the sous vide pan. When the unit is gaining temperature, the red Sous Vide light will flash in the screen to

indicate the set temperature has not yet been reached, and the time : symbol won’t

flash to indicate the timer has not begun. When the selected temperature is reached, the unit will beep 3 times to indicate the set temperature has been reached, the Sous Vide light will stop flashing and the unit is ready for the food.

7.Carefully remove the lid. With a pair of tongs gently place the sealed food pouches in the water ensuring the water level does not exceed the MAX line, and that the food is covered by water. Replace the lid.

(For further information regarding sealing your food, see Cooking Menus Overview on page 7.)

TIP: You can slot the sealed food pouches vertically in the slots of the rack to ensure the food is separated and that water can circulate evenly.

8.When the sealed food pouches are in the

pan, press START so the timer can begin to countdown. The : symbol will start flashing to indicate the timer has started and that the unit is counting down.

Tip: If you do not press START to activate the timer the unit will still work as normal at the set temperature and will cook for the maximum setting of 24 hours or until you switch the power off.

9.After the set cooking time has elapsed, unit will beep 3 times and turn off.

TIP: During cooking, only lift the lid if necessary as sous vide uses low temperatures to cook, so the unit does not recover lost heat quickly. If condensation forms on

the inside of the lid reducing your vision, carefully tilt the lid away from you so that the condensation falls back into the pan.
