6. Starting up

7. Cooking eggs
Á Pick a hole in the top or bottom side of the egg
with the egg pick u .
Á Place the eggs on the egg holder w with the
picked side up.
Á Fill the measuring cup y with the required
amount of water. The amount of water depends
on the number of eggs and the desired degree
of hardness.
Explanation of the symbols on the measuring cup:
hard
medium
soft
Tip:
Depending on the size of the egg, to obtain the des-
ired hardness you may need to vary the volume of
water used from that detailed by the scale markings
on the measuring cup
y . If the egg is too soft, use
a little more water (about one mark on the measu-
ring scale). The cooking time will be extended. The
egg will be harder. If the egg is too hard, use a little
less water the next time (about one mark on the me-
asuring scale). The cooking time will be shortened.
The egg will be softer.
Á Now pour the water into the cooking bowl e .
Á Place the egg holder w in the cooking bowl e
and place the lid q on top.
