Steba er eds [11/14] Cleaning and care

Preserving

∙ The preserving jars must be hygienically clean and undamaged. The rubber rings

must not be porous or overstretched. Fill the glasses to 80% of capacity with food

and ensure that the edge of the glass is clean. Fit the damp rubber ring. Seal the

jars with a lid and the lever arm.

∙ Place the rack into the pan and stack the jars. Two jars can be placed on top of each

other. Ensure that the jars do not touch at the sides so that the temperature will be

evenly distributed.

∙ Then pour in water until the jars are 3/4 submerged. Fill to maximum of 7 cm be-

neath edge of pan so that the appliance does not boil over.

∙ Set temperature value (e.g. 85°C for fruit) .

∙ Set timer to max., and appliance will beep when the set temperature is reached.

Then set the timer to the required preserving time (e.g. 30 minutes).

∙ When the timer elapses the appliance turns itself off.

∙ The clamps must remain on the jars until they have cooled down completely.

∙ Then the clamps can be removed and it can be checked whether the jars are vacu-

um sealed by lifting the lid slightly.

Thermostat setting

∙ Select the required temperature (e.g. 65°C).

∙ The lamp illuminates and the appliance heats up.

∙ After reaching the temperature, the device beeps and the lamp goes off. The ther-

mostat cycles, and the beep can be switched off using the switch.

∙ If the appliance is used as a mulled wine heater, i.e. warm liquid is continuously

removed and replaced with cold liquid, the beeper indicates when the temperature

has been reached again.

Temperature and timer guideline values for

Fruit 85°C 25 - 30 minutes*

Vegetables max. 90 - 120 minutes*

Meat max 120 minutes*

(* Times only apply after reaching the set temperature)

Cleaning and care

∙ Always disconnect from the power supply before cleaning.

∙ Allow apparatus to cool to room temperature.

∙ Attention: Do not immerse the appliance in water.

∙ The pan and the lid can be cleaned with warm water using normal commercial

washing-up liquid. Afterwards, dry the parts and check that there is no water in the

lid.

∙ Do not use any scratchy or scouring cleaning agents.

∙ In order to avoid control inaccuracies, scale on the bottom of the pan must be

removed using diluted vinegar or descaler. Then rinse thoroughly!
