Operation
Setting the boiler into operation
Before using it for the first time:
• Clean pot and lid thoroughly before using it
for the first time.
• Fill about 5 litres of water into the preserving
boiler and boil it out.
Note:
When first using the new appliance it
may exude a slight smell which has technical
reasons and does not give any cause for
concern.
How to operate the appliance properly:
• Always unwind the mains cable completely.
• Make sure that the mains cable does not get
into contact with the hot appliance during
operation.
Caution!
When filling in liquids do not exceed
a filling height of 4 cm below the rim of the pot
(corresponds to 23 litres in cooking mode).
Then close the lid. Otherwise there is danger
of scalds during cooking.
• Do not connect the appliance to the grounded
(SCHUKO) socket before you have filled it up.
• Do not switch the appliance on when there is
no water inside, otherwise the enamel or the
coated grid may get damaged. If you have –
despite all caution - switched the appliance on
without any water inside, wait for the appliance
to cool down again, before filling in the water,
otherwise there is a risk of scalds through
escaping steam.
• Let the condensation water drain into the pot
when removing the lid.
• Avoid transporting the fully laden appliance
as it is very heavy then – danger of injury.
Drain the appliance before transporting it or
skim some liquid off.
• After using the appliance pull the plug from
the socket and let the appliance cool down.
• Use the cable retainer and the plug holder
at the bottom to store the cable after use.
