GETTING STARTED AND OPERATION

Preparing food/preserve jars

Preferably use preserving jars with a rubber seal and a lever clamp. The preserving jars must be free of damage.

1. The preserving jars must be free of germs and bacteria, otherwise the preserve could spoil prematurely. Preferably, boil the preserving jars for 5-7 minutes before adding the food.
2. Use a funnel when filling the preserving jars, if available. The edges of the preserving jars must be clean when the jars are sealed.
3. Seal the jars as quickly as possible after filling:
   • Place the rubber seal on the upper rim of the preserving jar and place the glass lid on the preserving jar. The rubber seal is between them.
   • Place the rubber seal on the upper rim of the preserving jar and place the glass lid on the preserving jar. The rubber seal is between them.

Switching the appliance on and off

1. Turn on the appliance, the “cancel” light is flashing and the screen displays “00:00”. During operation, you can adjust the time or temperature first. In this sample, we set up the time first.
2. Press the TIMER button (3), the appliance displays the default cooking time “02:00” (2 hours).
3. Press the “+” or “-” button to adjust the cooking time. The time is set in 1-minute steps. Press and hold the respective button to reach the target time faster.
4. Press the TEMPERATURE button (6), the appliance displays the default cooking temperature “100” (100 °C).
5. Press the “+” or “-” button to adjust the temperature. The temperature is set in 1- degree steps. Press and hold the respective key to reach the target temperature more quickly.
6. After successfully adjusting the temperature and cooking time, press the START button (7).
7. The LED display alternately shows the remaining operating time and the current water temperature.
8. When the appliance reaches the target temperature and cooking time, the appliance will turn off by itself and beeps for 1 minute, without the warm-keeping function. All operating lights are switched off.

Note: If you only set the cooking temperature and not the cooking time, the appliance runs with the default operating time of 2 hours. Press the CANCEL button to cancel the heating or boiling process.

Note: When the appliance is not in use, always remove the plug from the mains power socket.

Preserving

• To be understood under the term preserving is the conservation of foodstuffs by, amongst others, the effects of heat. Dependent upon the type and mass of the items to be preserved, a differentiation is made between the processes of sterilisation and pasteurisation. In sterilisation, the items to be preserved are heated to a temperature of at least 100 °C. With pasteurisation, the heating temperature lies at around 80 °C.
• For domestic purposes, pasteurisation is sufficient. For this, one needs the appropriate preserving jars, with screw-tops or lids with rubber rings.
• Preserve only fresh foods. Overripe fruits or vegetables are not suitable for preserving.
• Pay heed to the cleanliness of the jars! Ideally, boil the jars for around 5-7 minutes before filling them with foodstuffs. This will ensure all germs and bacteria have been killed.

1. Place the preserving grill (4) in the preserving boiler.

2. Place the filled and tightly sealed jars on the preserving grill (4). Stack the preserving jars on top of each other if required.
   Note: A maximum of 14 glasses (with a capacity of 1 litre) can be boiled/sterilized at the same time! For smaller glasses, more glasses fit into the device.

3. Add water to the preserve maker until the upper preserving jars are around 3⁄4 covered. However, do not exceed the MAX marking. Ensure that the preserving jars on the lower level are properly closed so that no water can get in.

4. Close the preserving boiler with the lid (1).
   CAUTION
   Risk of burns! During operation, hold the appliance only by the heat-insulated handles, as it becomes very hot during use and you may burn yourself.

5. Using the TEMPERATURE button (6), set the desired temperature. Observe the following table when selecting a temperature setting. The timetable for cooking is for orientation only.

Cooking Table

Note: This information is a recommendation. The approximate heating time in minutes depends on the size of the jars.

Vegetables| °C| Min|  |

Note: The preserving jars are hot after boiling. Use pliers or oven gloves to remove the jars. Keep preserves dry, cool and dark.

Cauliflower| 100| 90
Beans| 100| 120
Peas| 100| 130
Cucumber| 80| 30|
Kohlrabi| 100| 120
Asparagus| 100| 100

• Use the TIMER button for the minute setting (3) to set the cooking time specified in the table.
• Start the appliance by pressing the START button (7). Signal tones sound and the appliance begins to heat up. Once the heating up is complete, signal tones sound, the current temperature appears in the display and the remaining preparation time in minutes is counted down on the display. As soon as the set time period has expired, signal tones sound. The appliance switches itself off and the display shows ”00:00”.
• Position a heat-resistant container under the pouring tap (10) and press the pouring lever (11) down. The water drains itself.
• When the water has drained away allow the preserving jars to cool down.

Heating and keeping liquids warm

Note: Fill the appliance with water only up to the MAX level marking. Otherwise, the liquid could overflow.

1. Pour the liquid (for example, mulled wine or cocoa) into the preserving boiler.

2. Place the lid (1) onto the preserving boiler.
   CAUTION!
   Risk for burns! During operation, hold the appliance only by the heat- insulated handles, as it becomes very hot during use and you may burn yourself.

3. Using the TEMPERATURE button (6), set the desired temperature.

4. Press the TIMER button (3), “02:00“ appears in the display. It is now not necessary to set a cooking time. The appliance heats up continuously until it is switched off.

5. Regularly stir the liquid so that the heat is evenly distributed.

6. When the desired temperature has been reached, signal tones will sound. You can drain off liquids without solid particles through the tap (10).
   Note: Do not pour off liquids with solid constituents, for example, soups. The solids will block the pouring tap.

7. Hold a cup or similar under the tap (10) and press the dispensing lever (11) downwards.

8. When the desired amount of liquid is in the cup, release the dispensing lever (11).

Note: You can also keep stews warm in the preserving boiler. They do however need to be stirred regularly to prevent them sticking to the bottom of the appliance.

Overheating protection

This appliance is fitted with an overheating protector. Overheating may occur if there is too little or no liquid in the preserving boiler. In this case, the appliance switches itself off immediately. Once you have topped it up with liquid you can restart the appliance.
