You will then need to place the desired number of eggs onto the egg tray. before dong so rinse the eggs and use the piercing pin on the underside of the measuring cup to make a small hole on the top side of the egg.

Ensure the side of the egg with the hole is placed facing upwards.

Place the lid onto the base and then press the power button on the front of the base. Once the water has evaporated the unit will power off and the indicator will turn off.

As soon as this happens remove the eggs from the base using the egg tray and rinse under cold water to prevent over cooking.

When cooking poached eggs or omelets you would place the respective trays on top the egg tray during a cooking cycle.
