Using the Steam function
1.
Place water up to the minimum
level (see page 12) in the inner
pot. More water can be added but
only to just under the trivet (not
supplied) so it doesn’t touch the
food.
2.
If you want to use your pressure
cooker as a steamer, you will have
to prepare a trivet or oven proof
bowl and place on the bottom of
the inner pot.
3.
Place an oven proof plate or
saucer onto the trivet or bowl,
then place the food to be cooked
onto the saucer (not supplied).
Avoid ceramic dishes with any
unglazed areas, and ensure there
is a gap between the edge of the
saucer and the sides of the inner
pot.
4.
Refit the lid and turn clockwise to
lock, turn the steam valve to the
Sealing position.
5.
Press the
Steam
button then
the
START
button to begin the
cooking cycle.
6.
After the cooking cycle has
finished, the pressure cooker will
beep. Release the steam following
the guidance on page 17.
IMPORTANT:
Take care when
removing items from inside the
inner pot after cooking as they will
be very hot.
ALWAYS
use heat
proof gloves when handling hot
items.
