General
• This appliance can be used for multiple purposes: preserving, cooking, warming up in water, preparation of
hot beverages, blanching vegetables, etc. Always slowly warm up and constantly stir any food that is viscous
and may easily be burnt. If your appliance should be cooking even when it is empty, an additional safety
device to avoid drying out will prevent the appliance from overheating.
• Allow the appliance to thoroughly cool down before you refill it with water so as to avoid burns due to hot
steam and to protect the enamel surface from damages.
• When using for the first time, an odor might be produced, which however will disappear in the short run.
Volume
The preserver has a volume of 27 liters. However, be sure to never fill it up higher than 4 cm (1.6 in.) below its
upper casing rim.
Important Hints
• Due to hygienic reasons, be sure to boil or sterilize once the appliance.
• Be sure to completely unwind the appliance' s power cable and to connect it to a grounded socket.
Preserving
• Preserving is to preserve food without any chemical additives. The heat generated kills off any germs in the
preserving food. At the same time, the bottling jar will be sealed in a germfree and airtight manner due to
the vacuum produced.
• Use sterilizing or pasteurizing depending on the sort and mass of the food to be preserved. For sterilizing,
allow the food to be preserved to heat up to at least 100 degrees C (212°F). To pasteurize, heat it up to 80
degrees C (176°F). Pasteurizing is sufficient if the appliance is used in the household. Please use relevant
bottling jars with screw caps or locking caps with rubber seal rings.
• To enjoy boiled meat and vegetables safely, always boil these foods twice: The second heating after at
least 24 hours. You can find more information about this at:
