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 continous
mode, e.g 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 , 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 TM 31. Then the temperature sensor
can measure the actual temperature correctly and
control soft start accordingly. If using the
Thermomix TM 31 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.
Soft heating setting
Speeds 2 and 3 are designed a soft heating setting.
When these speeds are selected the temperature
rise slowier. This leads to a gently heating of the
food being cooked.
