OPERATING yOUR BREvILLE HOT WOK™ PRO

BEFORE FIRST USE

Before using for the first time, the cooking 

surface should be cleaned with a moist cloth. 

We recommend lightly greasing the cooking 

surface when using for the first time. This will 

not be necessary on subsequent occasions.

• 

It is recommended you remove all labels 

and wash the Wok Bowl and Glass Lid in 

hot soapy water. Rinse and thoroughly dry.

• 

The Wok Base is removable for easy 

cleaning (see page 14).

• 

Do not immerse the power cord and 

Temperature Control Probe in water or 

any other liquid.

NOTE

Before inserting the Temperature 

Control Probe into the Probe Socket, 

ensure the interior of the Probe Socket 

is fully dry. To do this, shake out 

excess water then wipe the interior of 

the Probe Socket with a dry cloth.

OPERATING yOUR WOK

1. 

Place the Wok Bowl onto the Wok Base 

and lock into place (see page 15).

2. 

Insert the Temperature Control Probe 

into the Probe Socket at the side of the 

wok. Plug into a 240V power outlet. 

Always insert the Temperature Control 

Probe into the appliance first, then plug 

power cord into main power outlet.

3. 

Preheat the wok on the ‘High Sear’ 

setting for approximately 10 minutes. 

The heating arrow will illuminate and 

indicates the selected setting.

4. 

When the heating arrow no longer 

illuminates, the wok has reached the 

correct temperature for the selected 

setting. The wok is now ready for use. 

The heating arrow will cycle on and off 

throughout cooking as the temperature 

is maintained by the thermostat. Never 

place oil or food into the wok while it 

is heating, especially when it is cold. 

This will produce a poor cooking 

result. 
Rotate the Steam Vent on the Glass Lid 

counter clockwise to allow steam to 

escape when cooking.

WARNING

Never operate the wok without the base 

firmly positioned in place.

NOTE

When a high heat is required (eg. for stir 

frying or searing), select the ‘High Sear’ 

setting and allow the heating arrow to 

cycle on and off several times.  This will 

allow the cooking surface to adjust to 

a more accurate cooking temperature. 

Use only the Temperature Control Probe 

provided with the wok. Do not use any 

other Temperature Control Probe or 

connector.

5. 

When cooking is completed, turn the 

heating arrow to the ‘Off’ position (‘0’ 

on dial) then unplug power cord from 

power outlet. Leave the Temperature 

Control Probe connected to the wok 

until it has cooled down.

NOTE

Do not immerse the power cord, 

Temperature Control Probe in water 

or any other liquid.

• 

Allow the wok to cool down before 

cleaning.

• 

Before cleaning switch the wok ‘Off‘ 

and unplug power plug from the 

power outlet. Remove the Temperature 

Control Probe from the Probe Socket by 

depressing the ‘Easy Release’ lever on 

the side of the probe.

• 

Do not leave plastic cooking utensils in 

contact with the wok while cooking.
