[. . . ] Power cord with plug Important safety instructions Before the appliance is used, the main body as well as any attachment fitted should be checked thoroughly for any defects. Should the appliance, for instance, have been dropped onto a hard surface, it must not be used any longer: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance. The surfaces of the egg boiler become hot during use. [. . . ] In the event of such damage being found, the appliance must no longer be used. No responsibility will be accepted if damage results from improper use, or if these instructions are not complied with. This appliance is intended for domestic use only and not for commercial applications. In order to comply with safety regulations and to avoid hazards, repairs of electrical appliances must be carried out by qualified personnel, including the replacement of the power cord. If repairs are needed, please send the appliance to one of our customer service departments. The address can be found in the appendix to this manual. Before using for the first time Clean the water bowl, the egg holder and lid with a damp cloth. How to use your egg boiler - Fill the measuring cup completely with cold water and pour the measured quantity into the water bowl. - Pierce the blunt end of each egg with the piercer; this will reduce the risk of the eggs cracking during boiling. - Place the eggs into the holder, fit the holder onto the water bowl and put the lid on. - Use the boiling-time control to select the desired degree of hardness: soft medium hard The markings refer to medium-size eggs. However, it is possible to adjust the degree of hardness infinitely, depending on the number and size of eggs to be boiled. - Insert the plug into a suitable wall socket and use the On/Off switch to turn the egg boiler on. - A beep is heard once the pre-set cooking time for the desired hardness of the eggs has elapsed. Caution: when the lid is opened, hot steam will escape. - Remove the egg holder with the eggs from the bowl and place it immediately under cold running water. Note: if the eggs are not removed from the boiler without delay, they will continue to harden. Cleaning and care Always remove the plug from the wall socket, allow the appliance to cool down and pour out any remaining water before cleaning.
