5.2 Operation
Before the first use
Before the device operation clean the removed elements according to the instructions
in section 6 “Cleaning and descaling”.
Install the water tray and fill it with water up to MAX mark (approx. 0.5 l).
Place the glass cylinder on the tray and then put the lid on the cylinder.
Connect the device to the single grounded socket.
Turn the device on with use of ON/OFF switch.
Green lamp will come on.
Turn the temperature controller knob to the highest position “MAX”. The orange
heating indicator light comes on until the preset temperature is reached.
Wait for the water to be heated, then set the temperature controller knob to
position “0” and turn the device off with use of ON/OFF switch. Wait for the
device to cool down.
After cooling down remove the glass cylinder and empty the tray. Rinse those
elements thoroughly with clean water.
HOT SURFACE! Risk of burns!
Some parts of the device become very hot during its
operation, never touch them with bare hands.
They must be removed in the protective gloves.
Heating of hot-dogs
Fill the tray with water again up to MAX mark.
CAUTION!
Periodically check the water level. Never use the device without water!
Do not overfill the tray; pay attention to MAX mark.
Place the glass cylinder on the tray; put the basket into the cylinder. Place the
bottom mesh in the basket and finally fix the separating mesh to the basket.

- 30 -
Place prepared hot-dogs in the basket.
Put the lid on the glass cylinder.
Turn the temperature controller knob to the highest
position “MAX” to heat water
The orange heating indicators will come on.
After a while rotate the temperature controller knob
anti-clockwise to the required temperature.
Caution! When the device is switched too late the
residual heat from the heating plate may cause too
long boiling.
The preset temperature allows for keeping the hot-dogs warm. When the
temperature drops, the thermostat is reactivated and water is heated to the
required temperature. The orange heating indicator is on during heating and goes
off after reaching the preset temperature.
HOT STEAM! Risk of burns!
Carefully remove the lid on the glass cylinder. Lift the lid
only with use of handle. During lifting the lid hot steam may
be released from the glass cylinder, which may lead to
burns of hands and arms. Use protective gloves!
Remove the hot-dogs from the basket as required. Use the appropriate kitchen
utensils, like pliers, forks, etc.
After use set the temperature controller knob to position “0”, set ON/OFF switch in
position “O”, and disconnect the device from the power supply (pull the plug!).

6. Cleaning and descaling
WARNING!
Before cleaning disconnect the device from the power
supply (pull the plug!) and wait for cooling down.
Do not use pressurized water jest for cleaning!
Protect the device from the water penetration.
oClean the device regularly.
oRemove the individual elements (lid, glass cylinder, basket, separating mesh, bottom
mesh, and water tray) from the device and wash them in warm water with use of soft
cloth or sponge and gentle cleaning agent.
oThen rinse them in clean water to remove the cleaning agent residuals. Finally dry
them with soft dishcloth.
Caution: Due to hygiene reasons, clean the water tray at least twice a day!
Adverse water properties and salts, fat and spices from the sausages may
contribute to aggressive water content that may even react chemically with metal.
Therefore the water tray should be descaled once a day; otherwise the pits
may occur. Use the commercially available descaling agents (follow the
manufacturer’s instructions!) or water and vinegar solution (in 3:1 ratio).
CAUTION!
Lack of regular descaling of the hot-dog machine as set forth in the instruction
manual–may constitute a ground for –rejecting warranty claims.
Such claims are not covered by the warranty!
oWipe the device housing with soft, moistened cloth.
oAlways use the soft cloth only, never use any abrasive cleaning agents which may
damage the device surface.
oFinally dry and polish the surface with soft dry cloth.
