OPERATION (continued)
6. Continue to crack the eggs, placing them in order,
until all six Egg Rings (or 12 shown above) con-
tain an egg.
7. Break the egg yolks with the yellow Hutzler flat
spatula.
8. Close the Top Cover.
9. Fill the two troughs on the Top Cover with warm
water until they are completely full . This is very
important to get a completely cooked egg with
a jelled yolk. Using less water results in under-
cooked eggs.

ture eggs or the 2.5 (two and a half) minute cycle
for refrigerated eggs.
11. Press the Start/Stop button to initiate the cooking
cycle.
NOTE: The cooking indicator light will light when
the Start/Stop switch is pressed and released.
12. MEC-600 units only : If desired, place sliced
meat (Canadian bacon, ham, etc.) on front part of
Platen when “Bacon” indicator light begins to flash
and the audio signal sounds (see Bacon Timer in
the Operation section of this manual).
13. At the end of the cycle, when the “Cooking” indi-
cator light turns off and the audio signal sounds,
press the “Start/Stop” switch to turn off the audio
signal.
14. All MEC units : Open the cover and raise the Egg
Rack about 1 inch (26 mm), then drop the rack to
loosen the eggs.
15. Raise the Egg Rack completely off the eggs and
remove the eggs starting with the FIRST egg
added (far right of the first row of rings closest to
the front of the unit) (Figure 1). Continue remov-
ing the eggs in the order they were added until all
eggs have been removed.
16. Use the scraper provided to clean the Grill surface
and move waste into the Service Pan.
17. Lower the Egg Rack and Top Cover. The unit is
ready for further cooking.
