General Remarks
The Auto-Preserving Cooker offers a great variety of pos-
sible uses, not just for preserving, but also for cooking,
warming up, indirect warming up in water, preparing hot
drinks, blanching of vegetables etc.
Thick liquids which tend to scorch need to be warmed
slowly whilst stirring continuously.
In case your appliance boils dry, there is an additional
safety feature to prevent the appliance from overheating.
In this case allow the appliance to cool well before filling
it with water again, otherwise there is a risk of scalding
by sudden development of steam, moreover the enamelled
surface can get damaged.
At first use an odour can develop which will soon disappear,
however.
For hygienic reasons we recommend that you fill the app-
liance with approx.
5
litres of water - temperature selector
should be set to ‚Entsaften‘ (juice making) - and bring the
water to boil prior to first use.
Capacity
The Auto-Preserving Cooker holds
29
litres. The level of
liquid in the cooker must not be higher than
4
cm below
the rim.
Important Instructions For Using The Appliance
• Thoroughly clean the inside of the container prior to
first use.
• Always fill with water before switching on the appliance.
• Do not overfill water container, leave at least
4
cm space
below the container rim. If overfilled, hot water can spurt
out.
• Caution: Risk of scalding from escaping steam.
•
Attention:
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 thermostat is infinitely
variable from approx.
30°C
up to boiling. The temperature
set will be controlled automatically. A separate thermome-
ter is not necessary.
The selected temperature setting is reached when the
pilot lamp, which is glowing during heating up, goes out for
the first time, and the actual cooking time for preserving -
which is given in preservation indexes and cookbooks - only
starts as from that moment. For juice making the appliance
is equipped with a special setting which ensures permanent
heating. When the cooking process has been completed or
needs to be interrupted, reset the tempera-
ture selector to
0
and pull the plug.
Hints on cooking
Boiling point of water varies according to the local altitude
and atmospheric pressure.
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 find 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 counter-clockwise
to the left until pilot lamp extinguishes. After a short
while the control unit will turn on heating again.
Juice making
The Auto-Preserving Cooker is excellently qualified for
juice making by using the Juice Extraction Top
(important: diameter of the fitting ring
35
cm).
For this end fill the Auto-Preserving Cooker with at least
6
litres of water.
Then place the Juice Extraction Top on the Auto-Preserving
Cooker and turn the temperature selector all the way
to the right.
Important:
Make sure to add water with each new juice
making operation.
Cleaning
Never immerse the appliance in water. Always pull the
mains plug prior to cleaning, then wipe off the inside and
the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth. Calcerous
deposits which may have formed can be removed from time
to time with some vinegar in water or with a common decal-
cinator. Afterwards boil with clear water.
