Hints:

· This steamer’s unique 

design allows it to 

quickly begin steaming 

foods. Steaming will 

begin roughly 1 minute 

after the timer is set.

For suggested steaming 

times, see the 

Steaming 

Guide

 on page

 8

.

When steaming smaller 

food or foods with 

sauces, place in a heat-

safe container before 

placing on steam tray 

base.
The dual steam tray 

bases are great for 

steaming two foods 

with different cooking 

times. Begin by 

steaming the food with 

the longer cook time 

on the lower steam 

tray base. Then add 

the upper steam tray 

base at the appropriate 

time for it to cook. Both 

foods should be ready 

to serve once the food 

steamer switches off.

To Steam

1.  With the heating element cover in place, fill the 

water tank with water. Water should be filled 

between the 

MIN

 and 

MAX

 lines shown in the 

water level window.

2.  Place the drip tray securely into the base.
3.  Place the food to be steamed on to one or both 

of the steam trays, depending on the amount 

being steamed.

4.  Place the steam tray securely on top of the drip 

tray. If using both upper and lower steam trays, 

stack the second securely on top of the first.

5.  Place the lid securely on the top steam tray.

 

6.  Plug the food steamer into an available outlet.
7.  Turn the time control dial to the needed 

steaming time.

8.  The indicator light will illuminate and steaming 

will begin.

9.  When the selected time has elapsed, the 

steamer will “ding” and stop steaming.

10.  Using caution to avoid escaping steam, remove 

the lid by the handle.

11.  Check food for doneness. If fully cooked, 

remove for serving.

12.  Unplug the steamer when not in use. Allow to 

cool and follow instructions in 

To Clean

 on 

page 6.

Caution:

Do not steam food 

without the heating 

element cover in place. 

The heating element 

cover allows for your 

food steamer to quickly 

and efficiently create 

steam.
