Setup

1. Unpack: Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
2. Clean: Wash the transparent lid, egg tray, poaching/omelet tray, and measuring cup with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Wipe the heating plate of the base unit with a damp cloth.
3. Placement: Place the egg cooker base unit on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface.

Operating Instructions

A. Boiled Eggs (Soft, Medium, Hard)

1. Pierce Eggs: Use the piercing pin on the bottom of the measuring cup to gently pierce the wider end of each eggshell. This prevents cracking during cooking.
2. Add Water: Fill the measuring cup with water according to your desired egg doneness and the number of eggs.
   • For 1-2 eggs: Use 200mL water.
   • For 6-8 eggs: Use 140mL water.
   Pour the measured water directly onto the heating plate of the base unit.
3. Place Eggs: Place the egg tray onto the base unit. Carefully place the pierced eggs onto the egg tray.
4. Cover & Select: Place the transparent lid securely on top. Rotate the knob to select your desired doneness (Soft, Medium, or Hard).
5. Cook: The cooker will automatically shut off and sound a buzzer when the water has evaporated and eggs are cooked.
6. Cool: For best results and easier peeling, immediately transfer cooked eggs to an ice bath or run under cold water.

2. Prepare Tray: Place the egg tray onto the base unit. Then, place the 4-section poaching/omelet tray on top of the egg tray.
3. Add Ingredients:
   • For poached eggs: Crack one egg into each section of the tray.
   • For omelets: Whisk eggs with desired ingredients and pour the mixture into the sections.
4. Cover & Select: Place the transparent lid securely on top. Rotate the knob to select your desired doneness (typically Medium or Hard for omelets/poached eggs).
5. Cook: The cooker will automatically shut off and sound a buzzer when cooking is complete.
