FOR YOUR SAFETY

Safety is an essential part of every Vorwerk product.
However, the product safety of the Thermomix® and the corresponding
accessories can only be ensured if this chapter and the warning notices in the
following chapters are observed.
Note The blade cover is designed exclusively for the Thermomix® TM6 and
Thermomix® TM5 and may not be used with older predecessor models.
2.1

HAZARDS AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Sous-vide and slow cooking involve cooking food at low
temperatures, which could cause bacteria to spread.
• Ensure hygienic working practices at every stage of the food preparation
and cooking process.
• Follow the instructions in the recipe exactly (temperature and time).
• Once the food has been cooked, make sure that it is consumed
immediately.
• Meat and poultry must be briefly seared following the sous-vide process.
This will reduce the risk of bacteria on the surface of the food.
All of the accessories for Thermomix® are specifically designed for
use with Thermomix® and could get damaged if not used properly.
• Do not use the accessories for other purposes, particularly at high
temperatures.
• Do not use the spatula in hot pots and pans.
• To rule out any potential health risks, do not use the butterfly whisk when
cooking food over a long period of time (slow cooking, sous-vide or
fermenting).
• Ensure that the blade cover is securely inserted. If you notice that the
blade cover has detached itself from the knife, use a spatula to press it
back down again. Otherwise the blade cover could get damaged.
• Should an accessory become damaged, stop using it and replace it
immediately.
If accessories get caught in the mixing knife when the appliance is
running, small splinters and sharp edges could cause injury.
• Use only Thermomix® accessories as described in the operating
instructions and on the display.
• If any accessories are damaged by the mixing knife, discard the food and
contact Customer Care or your Thermomix® representative for
replacement accessories.
• Do not place frozen food in the sous-vide bag.
• Never use glass jars in the Thermomix® together with the blade cover –
not even glass jars that may be suitable for sous-vide cooking in a cooking
pot (e.g. preserving jars or mason jars).
