Do not overfi ll container, leave at least 4 cm space below the container rim. If overfi lled, hot •
liquid may spurt out.
Risk of scalding from escaping steam.•
Caution: The appliance will become hot when in use, so please only grab it on its insulated •
handles. Only carry it when it is cool.
Temperature control/Setting the thermostat
The appliance is equipped with a precision thermostat (capillary tube thermostat). The thermo-
stat is infi nitely variable from approx. 30° C up to the boiling point. An additional thermometer
is not required. The set temperature will be controlled automatically as follows:
On appliances without timer, the set temperature is reached when the pilot lamp glowing during
the heating-up process extinguishes for the fi rst time. Only from that time will the preserving
time mentioned in the preserving table and cookbooks count down.
As for appliances with timer this is an automatic function, i.e. when the set temperature is
reached the timer starts counting. Once the set time has elapsed, the appliance will switch off
automatically. Here, the pilot lamp indicates the operation of the appliance irrespectively of the
thermostat. In the “Entsaften” operating mode, the timer does not start.
For juice making the appliance is equipped with a special operation mode, which ensures con-
tinuous heating…
When the cooking process has been completed or needs to be interrupted, reset the tempera-
ture selector to off-position and disconnect the plug.
Notes for cooking
The boiling point of the water varies in accordance with the atmospheric pressure and the alti-
tude of the location.
If the thermostat is set too high, this results in continuous heating and consequently strong
development of steam, loss of water in the appliance and furthermore wasting of energy.
To fi nd the correct setting for boiling on your appliance, simply take the following steps:
1. Turn the temperature selector clockwise all the way to the right to cooking setting.
2. Wait for the water to boil.
3. Slowly turn the temperature selector slightly to the left until – on appliances without timer –
the pilot lamp extinguishes, or until – on appliances with timer – there is an audible switching
of the regulator. After a short time the regulator will trigger the heating again.
Juice making
Using the Juice Extraction Top which you may buy in the specialised trade under model numbers
EA 1803 or EA 2003/E (stainless steel), the Auto-Preserving Cooker is excellently qualifi ed for
juice making too.
A) Models without timer
Operational procedure in short
1) Preserving
a) Place grating insert
b) Put in prepared glass jars or bottles
c) Fill with water
d) Place lid
e) Connect plug to electrical outlet
f) Select temperature
g) Pilot lamp is on (heating process)
h) Pilot lamp goes out for the fi rst time indicating that the selected temperature has been
reached; now the actual cooking time begins. The temperature is maintained automatically.
i) Once the cooking procedure is fi nished, reset the temperature selector to off-position and
pull the mains plug.
2) Juice making (Juice Extraction Top is available in the specialised trade)
a) Fill with at least 6 litres of water
