descaling
In time, scale deposits may build up on the interior surfaces of the steamer
and element. These deposits will impair the efficiency of the steamer, and may
shorten its working life.
To descale the steamer and element, fill the steamer with 600ml (1pt) white
vinegar, plug it into the power socket, and set the timer to 20 minutes.
Ensure the kitchen is well ventilated while doing this, as heating the vinegar
will give off an unpleasant smell.
Don’t fit the filter, diffuser, baskets, rice bowl, or lid.
After the 20 minutes is up, leave it to cool completely, then pour out the
vinegar and rinse the steamer several times with cold water, to remove all
trace of the vinegar.
Pour from the end of the steamer, to prevent liquid getting to the controls.
Dry the steamer thoroughly.
Don’t use any liquid other than white vinegar, and don’t use a proprietary
descaler.
stacking and storing
The baskets have been designed to stack, to occupy less storage space than
conventional steamers.
Reverse the order of the baskets. Put the middle basket inside the largest one,
then put the smallest basket inside the middle one. Now put the rice bowl
inside the smallest basket, turn the separator on its side and lay it on the rice
bowl, then put the lid on top of the lot.
