This program is recommended for cooking rice and other grains, hot cereals, and various side dishes. Default time
for the program is 25 minutes. Manual time settings range from 5 minutes to 4 hours with 5 minute intervals.
To avoid boiling away, when cooking various oat porridges using pasteurized low fat milk, we recommend that you
do the following:
• rinse grain thoroughly before cooking;
• grease the sides of the bowl with butter;

Cooking results may vary depending on the manufacturer and the place of origin of the products used.

V. CLEANING AND GENERAL MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
Before you start cleaning the device, make sure that it is unplugged and has cooled down. Use soft cloth and mild
soap to clean. We recommend cleaning the appliance after each use. Prior to first use or in order to remove the odor,
boil half a lemon for 15 minutes using “STEAM/SOUP/PASTA” program.
Do not use a sponge with a hard or abrasive surface; solvent and abrasive cleaning methods (gasoline, acetone) are
not allowed. Do not immerse the device in water or wash it under running water.
Clean the housing as needed. We recommend cleaning inner aluminum lid after each use. Clean the bowl after each
use. The bowl is dishwasher safe. By the end of cleaning, wipe the bowl dry.
The steam valve is located on the lid of the device. The valve needs to be cleaned after each use.
1. Gently remove the steam valve by turning its cover counterclockwise and lifting by the ledge. If you find it
difficult to remove the valve, you may carefully press it from the inner side of the lid.
2. Remove the inner part of the steam valve by turning it counterclockwise, disassemble and rinse under running
water. Use mild soap if needed.
3. Let the valve dry, carry out the assembly in return sequence and install the steam valve back into place.
Condensation collector located on the housing needs to be cleaned after each use.
1. Gently press the lower part of the collector until open and gently pull it up to remove.
2. Pour the condensate out and wash the collector.
3. Put the condensation collector back into place.
Condensation may sometimes accumulate in the special cavity around the bowl. Remove it with cloth or tissue.
VI. COOKING TIPS
Possible Causes for the Problems Arising and Ways of Solving Them
This chapter familiarizes you with the practical tips and solutions to some common problems you may experience
when using the multicooker.
THE DISH IS UNDERCOOKED
Possible Causes Solving the Problem
The lid of the device was either open or was not closed properly.
• Try to avoid opening the lid while cooking.
• Close the lid until it clicks into place. Make sure that the rubber
sealing ring located on the inner side of the lid is not deformed or
damaged in any way.
Cooking temperature was not observed because the bowl and the
heating element did not fit tightly.
• There should not be any foreign objects between the lid and the
housing of the device, remove if any.
• Always make sure that the heating element is clean and fits
tightly with the bowl before cooking.
• Wrong ingredients or settings were chosen.
• General proportions were not observed, the size of the ingre-
dients was too large.
• Wrong time settings.
• Chosen recipe is not appropriate for the device.
• We recommend using recipes adapted for the device. Choose
proven recipes only.
• Set the time and cooking program, choose ingredients, proportions,
and their size according to the recipe.
Steaming: the amount of water in the bowl is too little to provide
enough steam.
Use the amount of water recommended. If in doubt, check the water level
while steaming.
Frying:
Too much oil was added.
• Frying ingredients add an amount of oil enough just to cover the
bottom of the bowl.
• Follow recommendations given in the recipe while deep frying.
Too much moisture inside the bowl.
Do not close the lid of the device while frying unless specified in the
recipe. Using frozen ingredients defrost and drain before frying.
Cooking: the broth boiled away during preparation of foods with high
acidity.
Certain products need to be processed before cooking: washed, browned,
etc. Follow recommendations given in the recipe.
Baking (dough did
not bake through):
Proofed dough has reached the inner lid and
covered the steam valve.
Use a smaller amount of dough.
Too much dough in the bowl.
• Take the baked product out of the unit, turn it over and place back.
Bake until ready.
• Next time use smaller amount of dough.
THE DISH IS OVERCOOKED
Possible Causes Solving the Problem
Wrong ingredients, size of ingredient cuts or time
settings.
• We recommend using the recipes adapted for your model. Try choosing proven recipes
only.
• Set the time and cooking program, choose ingredients, proportions, and the size of
ingredient cuts according to the recipe.
