POLARIZED PLUG INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit

fit into the outlet at first, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a
competent qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in
any way.

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
•
The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least
that of the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension
cord is too low, it could overheat and burn.
•
The resulting extended cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over.

COOKING IN YOUR FOOD STEAMER
•
Before using your food steamer, make sure it is OFF and cold. Fill
water tank with cold water. To do so, pour the water directly into
the water tank. The amount of water depends on the required
cooking time. However, it is very important to respect the minimum
and maximum level. Non-observance of this instruction could
damage your appliance. DO NOT add any herbs, spices or other
liquid such as wine or broth to the water in the water tank.
Make sure the bottom of the baskets is properly attached, and
place the food in the different steaming baskets. DO NOT add
seasoning, herbs etc. until cooking has been completed.
Make sure the heating element protection is positionned properly
around the heating element with the larger side downwards. Add
water. Make sure the water flows freely inside the element
protection.
•
•
•
•
Then place the drip tray onto the water tank and stack the
steaming baskets, paying attention always to put the basket with
the largest base on the highest level. The size of the basket base is
indicated by number on the handles of each basket. The smallest
is #1, the middle one is #2 and the biggest is #3.
To stack the baskets, make sure the pins on the bottom of the
baskets fit in the grooves foreseen on the lower basket. Caution:
always use the side handles to move the baskets. Pay attention
during the positioning of the baskets because if they are not
placed correctly, steam may escape through the side of your
appliance and may burn you.
•
Place the lid on the upper basket DO NOT OPERATE THIS

Hints:
•
•
When cooking rice, we advise you to cover it with hot water in
order to accelerate the cooking process.
It is possible to cook food with very different cooking times but this
needs frequent operations to take away the food that will be
ready. To avoid this, it is recommended to prepare food with
similar cooking time.
•
Frozen food does not need to be defrosted, but its cooking time
will be longer.
CARE AND CLEANING
•
•
Empty the water tank and clean it with a damp cloth
Descale the appliance every 8 times. To proceed, position the
ring upside down around the heating element (the largest side
up). Fill the water tank with cold water up to “max.” level, fill the
inside of the ring with vinegar up to the same level. Leave
overnight to descale. Rinse out the inside of water tank with warm
water several times.
•
The baskets, the drip tray, the lid and the rice bowl may be
washed with soapy water or in the dishwasher. Never use
abrasive cleaners to clean your appliance: it could damage the
surfaces.
•
•
The body of the appliance should be washed with a smooth
cloth or with a slightly damp towel.
Never immerse the body in water or any other liquid.
