OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Purpose

This appliance is designed for preserving fruits, vegetables, etc., for the preparation of hot drinks and soups. The pot can also be used as a practical dispenser for hot drinks. You can pour tea or punch directly from the tap. Do not use the appliance for purposes other than those intended.

Basic product information

Volume – max. 27 litres, which matches:

a) 22 pieces of preserving jars with a volume of 0,7 l

b) 14 pieces of preserving jars with a volume of 1 l

Temperature setting range: 30–100 °C

Timer setting range: 1–120 minutes

Before first use

There may be dust or production residue on the machine. Before using it for the first time, it is recommended to clean it, see chapter "Cleaning" and boil water in it according to the instructions below:

Fill the pot with about 5 litres of clean water (or at least up to the min. mark) and boil for about 10 minutes. Then switch off the appliance, allow it to cool and drain the water using the drain tap.

Note: A slight odor may appear at the first. This is quite normal and it soon disappears.

Location

Attention:

• The electric preserving pot is very heavy when filled!
- Do not carry the filled electric preserving pot.
- The table or counter on which the preserving pot will be placed must have a minimum load capacity of 40 kg.
- The storage area should be horizontal and moisture resistant.
- In addition: do not use extension cords. Always first check that a power outlet is close.

Power consumption

The total power consumption of this device is up to 1800 W. For this load we recommend a separate power supply protected by a 16 A home circuit breaker.

ATTENTION: Overload!

• If you are using an extension cord, it should have cross section of the conductor at least 1,5 mm ^2 .
• Do not use any splitters as they do not have enough power for this device.

Preserving tips

• The cleanliness of containers and food during preparation has a major impact on durability.
• The preserving jars and their closures must always be undamaged and sterile.
• Fruits and vegetables must be of high quality, fresh and fully ripe.
• Viscous liquids (such as soups or sweet hot drinks) tend to burn. Heat them slowly and stir continuously.

Preparing food for preserving

• Wash the raw foods thoroughly with lukewarm water and allow them to dry before cooking.
• Soak the green beans and peas before preserving and let them swell.
  • Find the information about fruits and vegetables that you can preserve in the cookbooks.

Preparation of jars and lids

• Check that the jars do not contain any residues or are damaged.
• Sterilize the preserve containers and their closures before filling and allow them to dry on a clean cloth.
• Do not touch the sterile containers or their closures from the inside.
• Leave the rubber sealing bands in clean water until you use them. Do not use porous, damaged or overstretched rubber bands.
• Fill the containers up to 2 cm below the rim. Fill the pasty contents (such as marmalades) up to 3–4 cm below the rim. In case of meat preservation, fill the container only up to 34 .
• Seal the containers tightly with preserving caps.

Preserving

• Make sure that the temperature of the jars is about the same as the water temperature when they are placed in the preserving pot
- The electric preserving pot can accommodate 14 original rounded glass jars with rounded-off "Weck round rim glasses 100" with matching preserving lids.
- The tallest jar must be submerged by about 34 in the water.
- When preserving glasses in two layers, the lower glasses are completely submerged.
- Use the appliance only when the lid is closed.
- Do not shorten the preserving time. If you are in doubt, cook longer.

After preserving

You can use the used water for several subsequent preserves preparations.

Warning:

Never place preserving jars directly on the bottom of the pot. Place them on the preserving grid.

Do not overfill the pot. The maximum water level must not exceed the max. mark.

ATTENTION: Broken jar!

Do not place cold jars in hot water; warm them.

• After preserving, carefully remove the jars, place them on the tea towel and cover them with the second cloth.

Four identical line drawings of a cooking pot with liquid-filled chambers, no text or symbols present.

WARNING: Risk of burns!

The jars are hot.

• Leave the preserving caps on the jars until they have cooled completely.
  • After cooling, we recommend marking the jars with the content label and the date.
• If possible, store the preserved food in a dark and cool place.
