4. Operation
You can use this egg boiler to boil up to

Preparation
1. Use the measuring beaker 7 to fill cold
water into the heating bowl 3 until the
marking (Max) is reached.
2. Place the egg tray 2 on the heating
bowl 3.
3. If possible, choose eggs of the same
size if you want to achieve the same
boiling results.
4. Use the piercing tool 8 (on the bottom
of the measuring beaker 7) to pierce
the desired number of eggs on the
blunt end so that they do not burst dur-
ing boiling.
5. Place the eggs in the egg tray 2 with
the pierced side facing up.
6. Put the lid 1 on the egg tray 2.

TIP: Among other things, the boiling time of
eggs depends on their size, freshness and
temperature. Very large and very fresh
eggs need longer boiling times. Small eggs
and eggs that have reached room temper-
ature need shorter boiling times.
•
Set the stepless hardness controller 5
to the big egg symbol for the desired
egg hardness:
: Soft eggs
: Medium eggs
: Hard eggs
This setting is a guide value for 7 eggs.
• Select a setting to the left of the egg
symbol (= shorter boiling time),
- If you are boiling just a few eggs,
- If you are boiling very small eggs,
• Select a setting to the right of the egg
symbol (= longer boiling time),
- If you are boiling very large eggs,
- If you are boiling very fresh eggs,
TIP: Try out the various settings. After just
a very short time you will develop a feeling
for your perfect boiled egg.
