• If during food preparation you discover that
water level dropped below minimum level

kets (Pic. 1).
Use filtered water; it has low hardness,
that can allow to decrease the scale factor
in the heating element. Do not pour water
above maximum level (Max.).

wine, sauces or other liquids to the water.
