‘High Sear’ setting for approximately 10
minutes. The thermostat ‘On’ light will
illuminate indicating the temperature at
which the dial is set.

temperature control probe
into the Wok socket ensure
the interior of the socket is
fully dry. To do this, shake
out excess water then wipe
the interior of the socket
with a dry cloth.
Removable Temperature Control Probe
The temperature probe has 14 heat settings
plus ‘High Sear’ for accurate temperature
control. The ‘High Sear’ setting should be
used for searing and sealing meats when
stir frying.
The light on the probe switches off
automatically when the temperature is reached
and will cycle on and off during cooking in
order to maintain the temperature selected.
The numbers on the dial represent the
following temperatures approximately.
Plastic Spatula
Your Avance Gourmet Wok is supplied with a

damage the non stick surface.

adjustment to suit various
foods and individual tastes.
For best results allow the
Avance Gourmet Wok to
preheat for 10 minutes on
the ‘High Sear’ setting
before beginning to cook.
