ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
This appliance is fitted with a fused three-pin plug to BS1363 which is suitable for use in all homes
fitted with sockets to current specifications. If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket
outlets, it should be cut off and carefully disposed of. To avoid an electric shock, do not insert the
discarded plug into a socket.
Fitting a new plug
If for any reason you need to fit a new plug, the flexible mains lead must be connected as shown
here. The wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
Connect BLUE to Neutral (N)
Connect GREEN & YELLOW to Earth (E)
Connect BROWN to Live (L)
3 amp fuse to be used
If the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance do not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows. The wire which is coloured
green and yellow MUST be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter E (Earth) or
coloured green. The wire which is coloured blue MUST be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter N (Neutral) or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown MUST be
connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L (Live) or coloured red.
Before refitting the plug cover, check that there are no cut or stray strands of wire inside the plug.
Use a 3 amp BS1362 fuse. Only BSI or ASTA approved fuses should be used. If you are at all unsure
which plug or fuse to use, always refer to a qualified electrician.
Note: after replacing or changing a fuse on a moulded plug which has a fuse cover, the cover must
be refitted to the plug; the appliance must not be used without a fuse cover. If lost, replacement
fuse covers can be obtained from an electrical shop. This appliance complies with the following
EEC Directives: 73/23 EEC (Low Voltage Directive) and 89/336 EEC (EMC Directive).
The yoghurt maker
• The incubation process is vital for success. Tempting though it may be, please
don’t lift the lid or stir the yoghurt before 8 hours have elapsed.
• To speed up the incubation, plug in the yoghurt maker for 5 minutes before
adding the mixture.
• If the power light does not come on, check the plug, fuse and socket. If in doubt,
please consult a qualified electrician or call the helpline on 015394 88100.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Home-made yoghurt tastes wonderful chilled from the fridge, but its smooth
creaminess is also the perfect backdrop for sweet and savoury ingredients. Flavourings
should be added after the yoghurt is made, never before, as this will inhibit the
incubation process. Flavoured yoghurt will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.
• Spoon over muesli and drizzle with runny honey.
• Make your own fresh fruit yoghurt by adding raspberries, blueberries,
strawberries or chopped banana. Sweeten to taste with honey or caster sugar.
• Try flavourings such as milkshake syrup or powder, pureed tinned fruit, chopped
nuts, maple syrup or vanilla extract. Liquid flavourings will dilute the yoghurt.
• Make strained, Greek-style yoghurt by placing a sieve over a bowl and lining with
a double thickness of muslin. Spoon the yoghurt into the sieve and leave to drain
in a cool place for at least 2 hours. Serve chilled with toasted nuts and honey.
• Yoghurt makes a cool, creamy accompaniment to savoury dishes like curries and
chilli con carne. Add fresh chopped herbs, garlic, chilli or ground spices such as
cumin, turmeric or coriander.
• Fresh yoghurt makes a smooth base for salad dressings, dips, seafood sauce,
cucumber raita and toppings for jacket potatoes.
CARE AND CLEANING
Always unplug the yoghurt maker before cleaning. Wipe the insulated base with a soft,
damp cloth, then dry thoroughly. Never immerse it in water.
Wash all other parts in hot, soapy water. Rinse well, then dry. Do not use abrasive
cleaners or metal scourers.
