USE
Canning involves preserving food without chemical preservatives. The heat produced kills any germs
present in the canned food. At the same time, the vacuum produced seals the jar with no germs and
airtight. Depending on the type and the amount of preserved food, there is a difference between
sterilizing and pasteurizing. Pasteurizing is sufficient for normal household use. You need suitable jars
with screw closures or covers with rubber rings.
1.
Put the grate into the canner.
2.
Place the tightly closed jars on the grate. A maximum of
24, layered jars, can be sterilized/pasteurized.
3.
Fill the canner with water so that the top jars are 3/4
under water. (see the figure) Observe the max. marking
on the pot.
4.
Place the cover on the canner.
5.
Plug the power cord into a socket.
6.
Set the control for canning, juice thickening, or
warming, according to instructions below.
7.
After use, unplug the plug from the power socket. Allow
the device to cool down.
8.
Drain all the water from the device using the tap. Beware: the jars are hot, remove them
carefully from the device using a pair of cooking tongs, if necessary. Leave the clamps or other lid
attachments on the jars until they are completely cooled down.
9.
Clean the device after each use. To store the device, you can wrap the cord in the cord storage at the
bottom of the device.
