Putting into operation
Unwind the cable up to the desired length. The eggboiler has to be placed in
horizontal position otherwise it might switch off early and the eggs would be too
soft. Fill the measuring cup with cold water up to the mark and pour it into the
heating plate, then put the egg tray on the appliance. Before placing the eggs,
pierce them at the dull side by means of the egg pierce at the bottom of the cup.
This prevents eggs from bursting. Afterwards put the cover on the appliance.
