Frequently Asked Questions - Express DEC207 Dash

How do I clean the Dash Express DEC207 egg cooker?

Unplug the cooker and let it cool. The lid, poaching tray, omelette bowl, boiling tray, and measuring cup are top-shelf dishwasher safe. Wipe the body and heating plate with a damp cloth. For mineral deposits on the heating plate, use a solution of 10 parts water to 1 part vinegar or gently scrub with a 'magic eraser' sponge. Do not submerge the body in water.

Why is my egg cooker not turning on?

Check that the power cord is plugged into a working outlet. Press the power lever on the front. Ensure no power failure occurred. If the indicator light doesn't come on, contact customer support.

How much water should I use for soft, medium, and hard-boiled eggs?

Use the measuring cup provided: for soft boiled, fill to 'Soft' (about 2 tbsp water); medium boiled, fill to 'Medium' (2.5 tbsp); hard boiled, fill to 'Hard' (4.5 tbsp). For 1-3 eggs, cooking time is about 5 minutes; for 4-7 eggs, about 7 minutes. The cooker auto-shuts off when water evaporates.

Can I poach eggs in the Dash Express DEC207?

Yes, use the poaching tray. Fill the measuring cup to the 'Omelette/Poached' line (2.5 tbsp water), pour onto heating plate. Place boiling tray, then lightly greased poaching tray on top. Break an egg into each section. Cover and press power lever. When buzzer sounds, eggs are poached.

How do I make an omelette in this egg cooker?

Fill measuring cup to 'Omelette/Poached' line and pour water onto heating plate. Place boiling tray, then lightly greased omelette bowl. Pour whisked eggs into bowl. Cover and cook until buzzer sounds. For a drier omelette, leave for an extra 2 minutes. Remove with a spatula.

Why do my eggs sometimes come out overcooked or undercooked?

Ensure you use the correct amount of water as per the measuring cup markings. The cooker auto-shuts off when water evaporates, so stick to recommended times (5-7 minutes). For consistent results, remove eggs immediately after buzzer. Also, make sure heating plate and accessories are dry before adding water.

Is the Dash Express DEC207 dishwasher safe?

The lid, poaching tray, omelette bowl, boiling tray, and measuring cup are top-rack dishwasher safe. The body (base) is not dishwasher safe; wipe with a damp cloth only.

What is the warranty on this egg cooker?

Dash offers a 1-year limited warranty from the date of original purchase for normal household use. StoreBound will repair or replace defective parts. Contact customer support at 1-800-898-6970 or [e-mail] to initiate a claim. Proof of purchase is required.

Can I cook other foods besides eggs?

Yes, the recipe guide includes ideas for steaming vegetables (broccoli, asparagus), cooking salmon, shrimp, dumplings, edamame, and corn using the omelette bowl. Follow specific water amounts and times in the manual.

How do I prevent mineral buildup on the heating plate?

Clean the heating plate periodically with a mild solution of 10 parts water to 1 part vinegar. Alternatively, gently scrub with a 'magic eraser' sponge and warm water. This removes mineral deposits that can look like rust.

Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to "off", then remove plug from wall outlet. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

• Refrain from using attachments that are not recommended by the appliance manufacturer, as this may result in fire, electric shock, or personal injury.
• Do not let the power cord touch hot surfaces or hang over the edges of tables or counters.

The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

USING YOUR EXPRESS EGG COOKER

SOFT, MEDIUM, AND HARD-BOILED EGGS:

The times listed below are guidelines so that you will know how long it will take to cook your eggs. The thermostat in the Express Egg Cooker will shut off automatically when the eggs are done - no additional timer is necessary. The following time guidelines are for medium to large eggs. Extra large or jumbo eggs may require additional time/water in the appliance to achieve the desired results.

Soft BOILED

1-3 eggs 5 minutes

4-7 eggs 7 minutes

Medium BOILED

1-3 eggs 5 minutes

4-7 eggs 7 minutes

Hard BOILED

1-3 eggs 5 minutes

4-7 eggs 7 minutes

If you like medium eggs firm: let the eggs sit covered in the Express Egg Cooker for a few extra minutes before removing them.

If you like completely hard-boiled eggs: let the eggs sit for an extra minute in the Express Egg Cooker after the buzzer sounds. Since the Egg Cooker will automatically turn itself off the above times are just estimations of how long it will take your eggs to cook. Cooking times may vary due to the size and temperature of eggs.

TIMER AUTO-OFF

This Express Egg Cooker is equipped with a precision thermal sensor and will turn off automatically when the water has fully evaporated from the Heating Plate and when the buzzer sounds.

EGG PREP MEASUREMENTS

STYLE TBSP OF WATER
Soft Boiled	2
Medium Boiled	212
Hard Boiled	412
Omelette/Poached	212

ATTENTION: Do not unplug the unit while cooking. If you unplug the unit while cooking, it will still be turned on when you plug it back in. If the unit does not detect water on the Heating Plate, it will automatically shut off and reset itself in a few seconds.
