6. Operating the appliance
6.1 Cooking
Warning! Always connect the
appliance only to an earthed
mains socket, otherwise you will
not be properly protected from an
electric shock.
1. Put the food in the cooking pot 4.
2. Add at least 1 cup of liquid.
Beans and hard vegetables such as
carrots or potatoes should always be
completely covered with water while
cooking.
For best results, fill the cooking pot about
half full.
It should contain at least 1 litre and at most
3 litres of food 4 including the liquid.
3. Stand the cooking pot4 in the base 6.
4. Place the lid 1 on the cooking pot 4.
5. Insert the plug into a suitable earthed
socket (see “3. Technical data” on
page 3).
6. Turn the control knob 8 to your chosen
setting:
“HIGH”: For cooking at the highest
temperature
“LOW”: For cooking at the lowest
temperature
“AUTO”: To begin cooking at the highest
temperature and thereafter at a low
temperature
The indicator light will 7 come on and
the appliance will begin heating up.
6.2 Checking whether the food is cooked
Avoid lifting the lid of the pot while cooking
is in progress. Every time you open the lid
adds to the necessary cooking time.
You should therefore check that the food is
cooked only towards the end of the cooking
time.
6.3 Ending operation
1. At the end of the cooking time, turn the
control knob 8 to “OFF”.
Warning! Be aware that the
surfaces of the appliance can
become hot in operation:
– While the appliance is in
operation, take care to touch
only the lid handle 2 and the
cooker 5 handles;
– While the cooker 4 is in use,
always use potholders or oven
gloves to grasp it.
2. Remove the cooking pot 4 and the
cooked food.
3. Clean the appliance carefully after use
(see “10. Cleaning” on page 11).
6.4 Thermal cut-out
The appliance is protected against
overheating. The appliance will switch off
automatically if at any time there is no more
water in the base 4 and the temperature has
become too high.
If this happens, disconnect the appliance
from the power supply and allow it to cool
down.
You can subsequently start the appliance up
again in the usual way.
