Keep warm function

Food is best served immediately after cooking. The keep warm function is designed 

to keep food warm while you are serving your meal. The keep warm function will 

automatically start after the cooking time has finished and will operate for approximately 

60 minutes.

In order for the keep warm function to operate the water level must be at or above the 

MIN marking on the water level indicator.
When the keep warm function is in operation, the keep warm symbol will flash on the 

digital display. The water gauge illumination will cycle between green and red as your 

steamer cycles on and off.
The keep warm function can be cancelled at any time. To cancel, simply press the start/

stop/cancel button for two seconds. An alarm will sound to confirm that the setting has 

been cancelled. The alarm will stop after approximately 30 seconds. Alternatively you can 

cancel the alarm by pressing the start/stop/cancel button.

Using the rice bowl

1.  Put 1 volume of rice and 1½ volumes of water into the rice bowl (maximum 250g of 

rice).

2.  Place the rice bowl centrally into the steaming bowl. 
 

Although the rice bowl can be used in any of the steaming bowls, it’s best to place it 

in the top bowl so that juices and condensation from the other steaming bowls don’t 

flavour the rice or make it too wet.

Herb Infuser

Herbs can be placed in the herb infuser to enhance your cooking. Place one or two 

teaspoons of your chosen chopped fresh (or dried) herb onto the infuser and use the 

steamer as normal. The herb’s flavour will infuse the food in all three steaming bowls.
Remove, empty and clean the herb infuser after each use.

Boil Dry Condition

It is important to never let your steamer boil dry. Always fill the reservoir with an adequate 

amount of water and top it up during cooking when required. The water level should 

always be between the MIN and MAX markings. In the event that the steamer does boil 

dry, the heating element will cycle on and off. To restore normal operation, top up the 

water level.
