USING YOUR rapid EGG COOKER

SOFT, MEDIUM, AND HARD-BOILED EGGS:
The times listed below are guidelines so that you will know how long it will take to cook your eggs. The thermostat in the Rapid Egg Cooker will shut off automatically when the eggs are done – no additional timer is necessary. Thefollowing time guidelines are for medium to large eggs. Extra large or jumbo eggs may require additional time/water in the appliance to achieve the desired results.
If you like medium eggs firm: let the eggs sit covered in the Rapid Egg Cooker for a few extra minutes before removing them.

If you like completely hard-boiled eggs: let the eggs sit for an extra minute in the Rapid Egg Cooker after the buzzer sounds.

TIP: If you live at a higher altitude, add up to 25% more water to your Egg Cooker to ensure best results!

Timer Auto-Off
This Rapid Egg Cooker is equipped with a precision thermal sensor and will turn off automatically when the water has fully evaporated from the Heating Plate and when the buzzer sounds.

ATTENTION: Do not unplug the unit while cooking. If you unplug the unit while cooking, it will still be turned on when you plug it back in. If the unit does not detect water on the Heating Plate, it will automatically shut off and reset itself in a few seconds.
