Best Answer
When Hitler was appointed chancellor, Hindenburg was president, but he was old and ailing. When he died, Hitler announced he was eliminating the position of president, so he would be the undisputed leader of Germany. He declared that he was Fuhrer, and held absolute power. He also declared that it was treason to oppose the Fuhrer, and the penalty for treason was death. So the three step plan was this:
1) No more president meant no one could challenge him
2) He was leader or Fuhrer, and held absolute power.
3) Demanded complete loyalty, and if not, the penalty was death.
His laws were so extreme, that everyone was required to give the Nazi salute (arm outstretched, palm down) when prompted to do so. Failure to do so was treason, and punishable by death.

Answer:
On the 31 January 1933, Hitler, conscious of his lack of a majority in the Reichstag, immediately called for new elections to try and strengthen his position. The Nazis aimed to increase their share of the vote so that they would have a majority in the Reichstag. This would allow them to rule unopposed and unhindered by coalition governments.
Over the next two months, they launched themselves into an intense election campaign.
On 27 February 1933, as the campaign moved into its final, frantic days, the Reichstag, the German Parliament building, was set on fire and burnt down. An atmosphere of panic and terror followed the event.
This continued when a young Dutch communist, Van der Lubbe was arrested for the crime.
The Nazi Party used the atmosphere of panic to their advantage, encouraging anti-communism. Göring declared that the communists had planned a national uprising to overthrow the Weimar Republic. This hysteria helped to turn the public against the communists, one of the Nazis main opponents, and 4000 people were imprisoned.
The day after the fire, Hindenburg signed the Emergency Decree for the Protection of the German People
