USEFUL HINTS AND TIPS
1. Steaming time stated in the chart is only for reference. Time may be varied depends on the thickness of the food,
spacing of the food inside Steam Compartment, freshness of the food and personal preference. You can adjust the
desired cooking time by turning the Cooking Timer Knob.
2. A single layer of food steams is faster than multi layers. Therefore, cooking time for large volume of food will be
longer.
3. Prepare the food in thinner size can have a better steaming result. If the food size varies significantly, please do
layering and place smaller sizes on higher Steam Compartment.
4. Do not crowd the food. Arrange the food with space can help steam flow.
5. When cooking large volume of food, remove the lid about halfway through and turn the food over by using a long
handled utensil. Do not put your hand into the Steam Compartment.
6. Do not add salt and seasoning to the Steam Compartment or Water Tank. These minerals will cause scaling and
damage the heating element.
7. Never steam frozen meat, poultry or seafood direct from freezer. Always defrost completely beforehand.
8. All the figures in the
are referring to cold water in the Water Tank.
9. When using the three Steaming Compartment:
Always place the largest pieces of food with the longest cooking time in the lower Steam Compartment.
You may place different food in the upper and lower Steam Compartments, and consider about dripping from
upper Steam Compartment due to condensation.
When steaming meat or poultry or vegetables, always place the meat or poultry in the lower compartment so
that juices from raw or partially cooked meat cannot drip onto other foods.
Steaming time for food in the upper container is slightly longer so allow an extra five minutes.
To steam food with different cooking time, firstly start the food with the longest cooking time in the lower
compartment. When the remaining time reaches, start with the rest of food, remove the lid cover carefully
with mitts and add the upper compartment. Replace the lid cover and continue steaming.
