Fill the lower part of the appliance with cold water depending on the cooking method selected.
Use the water jug for the quantity of water required (1 to 2).
Place the egg holder on the lower part of the appliance.
Turn the water jug and position it so it is flat with the egg piercing spike uppermost.
Take each egg and place it on the Egg piercing spike so that the shell is pierced, to prevent the egg from cracking during
cooking. (3).

top.
Place the lid correctly on the egg holder. (5).
Unwind the power cord completely and plug in.
Move the switch to the I position. (6).
During cooking some hot steam will escape through the small opening on the top of the lid, this is completely normal. (7).

The indicator light goes out and the appliance stops operating. The eggs are ready.
Remove the lid using oven gloves as the appliance is still hot and hot steam escapes through the opening on the lid. (9).
Grab the egg holder by the handle (using oven gloves if necessary). (10).
Remove the egg holder from the appliance and run under cold water to cool the eggs. (11).
