USING THE EGG COOKER
Cooking eggs
-
Place the egg cooker on a flat surface.
-
Use the included measuring cup to measure the correct amount of water. Only fill it with clean water without anything added (e.g. salt). The degree of cooking of the eggs depends on the amount of
-
er added and the number of eggs to be boiled, see the following:
-
On measuring cup there are lines marked with numbers 1 to 8, which are used to measure water according to the number of eggs. Example for measuring the right amount of water
If you need to measure out the water for boiling 4 eggs softly, fill the measuring cup with clean cold water to the line marked with the number 4 on the “Soft” scale (soft boiled)3. Pour the water into the cooking vessel, on which you then place the egg rack. -
Pierce the eggs on the non-pointed side using the piercing pin on the bottom side of the measuring cup. Insert the eggs into the rack with the pointed side of the egg facing down.
-
Place the lid on the upper part of the cooker, connect the cooker to the power supply and switch the On/Off button to the ON position. The light on the switch comes on, which means that the appliance is heating up.
-
Once the eggs are boiled, a buzzer sounds, the light on the switch goes out and the cooker switches off automatically. At this point, switch off the appliance using the ON/OFF button and disconnect it from the power supply.
Note:
Make sure that the eggs are not cracked to prevent dirtying of the appliance.
Frying eggs
- Pour the water into a cooking vessel, on which you then place a frying eggs tray. The amount of water in the cooking vessel determines the degree of cooking.
- Grease the individual cups in the tray with a bit of butter and break the eggs in them. One egg is for one cup.
- Place the lid on the cooker.
- Start cooking by pressing the ON/OFF button.
- Once the eggs are boiled, a buzzer sounds, the light on the switch goes out and the cooker switches off automatically. At this point, switch off the appliance using the ON/OF button and disconnect it from the power supply.
- Use plastic spatulas to serve eggs to avoid scratching the surface of the tray.
WARNING:
After cooking the eggs, switch off the appliance and unplug it to prevent it from switching on automatically when the cooking vessel has cooled down. This will prevent dry cooking and wasting of electricity.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
We recommend cleaning after each use.
- Before cleaning, switch off the appliance with the ON/OFF button, disconnect the power supply and allow the appliance cool down completely.
- Clean the lid, measuring cup and rack in hot soapy water, rinse and dry completely.
- Do not clean the appliance with abrasive cleaners.
- Wipe the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth.
- Pour a little vinegar (approx. 1 teaspoon) into a measuring cup and add clean water. Pour the resulting solution into the cooking vessel. Make sure that the level of the solution in the vessel does not exceed the MAX line. Let it stand for 30 minutes. Then remove the solution, wipe the cooking vessel with a clean, slightly damp cloth and dry it. Store the cooker in a dry place, such as a kitchen counter, table or cabinet shelf.
