GENERAL INFORMATION

Capacity: The BIELMEIER preserving cooker has a
capacity of 27 litres . The level of liquid in the cook-
er must be no higher than 4 cm below the rim .
The appliance can be used in many diff erent
ways: preserving, heating in a water bath, prepar-
ing hot drinks, cooking*, reheating*, blanching
vegetables*, etc .

constant stirring . *
Please note: In the event that the cooker boils
dry, a built-in circuit breaker will protect the ap-
pliance from overheating . IMPORTANT: Allow
the appliance to cool down completely before
adding any liquid. If you add liquid to the hot
appliance, there is a danger of scalding by
steam and a risk of damage (deformation) to
the bottom of the cooker.
An odor may develop for a short time the fi rst time
you use the appliance .
For reasons of hygiene, fi ll the appliance with
approx. 6 litres of water – set the temperature
control switch (4) to the "Entsaften" (juice
