Preserving

For preserving, the jars and rubber seals must be clean and

intact. If possible, use jars of the same size. The information in

the table is for round, one-litre jars.

Caution!
Do not use jars that are larger or taller than this. The lids could

crack.
Only use fruit and vegetables in good condition. Wash them

thoroughly.
The times given in the tables are a guide only. The time will

depend on the room temperature, number of jars, and the

quantity and temperature of the contents. Before you switch off

the appliance or change the cooking mode, check whether the

contents of the jars are bubbling as they should.

Preparation

Preserving
Fruit

After approx. 40 to 50 minutes, small bubbles begin to form at

short intervals. Switch off the oven.
After 25 to 35 minutes of residual heat, remove the preserving

jars from the cooking compartment. If they are allowed to cool

for longer in the cooking compartment, germs could multiply,

promoting acidification of the preserved fruit.

Vegetables

As soon as bubbles begin to form in the jars, set the

temperature back to between 120 and 140 °C. Depending on

the type of vegetable, heat for approx. 35 to 70 minutes. Switch

off the oven after this time and use the residual heat.

Taking out the jars
After preserving, remove the jars from the cooking

compartment.

Caution!
Do not place the hot jars on a cold or wet surface. They could

suddenly burst.
