Important cord information

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the

other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, there is only one way

this plug is intended to ﬁt into a polarized outlet. If the plug does

not completely ﬁt into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not

ﬁt, contact a qualiﬁed electrician. Do not attempt to modify the

plug in any way.

a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord)

is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled

in or tripping over a longer cord.

b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are

available and may be used if they are used carefully.

c) If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is

used:

1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply

cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the

electrical rating of the appliance;

2) If the appliance has a grounded plug, the cord set or exten-

sion cord should also be a grounded 3-wire cord; and

3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape

over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on

by children or tripped over.

Intended use

This appliance is exclusively intended for cooking chicken eggs. It

is not intended for use with other foods or other materials.

The appliance is intended exclusively for indoor domestic use.

Do not use it in commercial or industrial environments. Any use

other than the intended use is considered to be improper.

Cable retainer

There is a cable retainer on the base of the appliance. This

retainer allows you to adjust the length of the power cord to

your requirements.

► Always wrap the power cord around the cable retainer

in clockwise direction. Ensure that you guide the power cord

through the corresponding gap in the rear of the appliance

base for the sake of stability.

Operation

Preparing eggs

♦ Pick a hole in the bottom of the egg with the egg pick .

This allows the air inside the egg to dissipate as it expands

during boiling. It prevents the shell from bursting open.

♦ Place up to 7 eggs on the cooking insert with the picked

side up.

♦ Fill the measuring cup up to the MAX marking with tap

water and pour this water into the cooking bowl .

♦ Place the cooking insert into the cooking bowl and place

the lid on top.

Boiling all eggs to the same ﬁrmness

The preprogrammed cooking times relate to average-sized eggs

(size M/L) at a temperature of around 7 °C (44.6 °F, refrigerator

temperature).

♦ Turn the control switch to the position that corresponds to

the desired egg ﬁrmness (see the symbols to the right of the

control):

Boiling eggs to diﬀerent degrees of ﬁrmness

You can boil eggs to two diﬀerent degrees of ﬁrmness in the appli-

ance. It will always reach the softest level ﬁrst. For reliable results,

all the eggs must be of the same size and have the same starting

temperature.

For the ﬁrst cooking process, the symbols to the right of

the control apply.

For the second cooking process, the symbols to the left of

the control apply.

sponds to the softest ﬁrmness level of the eggs (the

symbols to the right of the control apply).

♦ Press the operating switch to the "I" position to turn the

appliance on. The integrated control lamp lights up and

cooking begins.

♦ As soon as the eggs have reached the ﬁrst, softer ﬁrmness

level, a beep will be heard. To turn the appliance oﬀ, set the

operating switch to the "O" position.

The integrated control lamp turns oﬀ.

♦ Then take oﬀ the lid and carefully remove the desired number

of eggs (those that have been cooked to the softer ﬁrmness

level).

The boiled eggs are very hot! Always wear oven gloves to protect

your ﬁngers when touching the eggs. Risk of burns!

Shock the removed eggs under cold, ﬂowing water.
