Quick-start checklist

1Mark prep station with non-slip mat boundaries
2Install utensil adapter sleeves on go-to tools
3Load 3–5 family recipes into follow mode
4Set cleanup workflow after every meal

A family sous chef only works with boundaries. Define the prep zone, approved tools, and cleanup rules before you ask Optimus to chop an onion.

Prep zone setup

Lay the Chef Prep Station Mat on a dedicated counter section
Mark 3ft boundaries so Optimus stays in-zone during prep
Fit Universal Utensil Adapter Sleeves on knives, spatulas, and measuring cups
Hang the Splash-Proof Apron during all active cooking sessions

Recipe-follow mode

Start with 3 family staples: a salad, a one-pot pasta prep, and a smoothie. Load step-by-step instructions and let Optimus execute while you supervise at the stove.

Block zones around open flames, hot ovens, and deep fryers. Optimus preps — you cook at heat.
