The VitaSteam Deluxe features an Instant Steam
Function that will enable steam to be generated
in as little as 30 seconds. For this feature to
operate you must place the Instant Steam Sleeve
in position.
The Sleeve concentrates a small amount of water
around the Exposed Heating Element, quickly
bringing it to boiling temperature to produce
steam, rather than heating all of the water in
the reservoir.
The Sleeve has a small cut out in the bottom to
allow water to flow into the contained water
area. When the Sleeve is in position the cut out
must be located at the bottom to allow the
water to flow in.
For more efficient steaming we recommend that
the appliance is always operated with the
Instant Steam Sleeve in position.

Your VitaSteam Deluxe relies on the water
reservoir being full of water to operate. Fill the
water reservoir with clean water only. The water
level must be between the ‘LO’ (450 mL) and ‘HI’
(1250mL) markings.
When continuously cooking food with your
steamer ensure that the water level does not fall
below the ‘LO’ marking (450mL).

The VitaSteam Deluxe comes with two steaming
trays - 3 litre and 4 litre. The appliance can
operate with either both trays stacked on top of
each other or with just one tray in position.
When using two trays at the one time, the
smaller tray (3 litre) must be placed on the
bottom with the larger tray (4 litre) on the top.
Place the largest piece of food with the longest
cooking time in the lower steaming bowl then
place on top of the Removable Drip Tray and
Power Base.
Then place the upper steaming tray
on top for cooking of vegetables.
