•
Wipe the base unit, inside and out, with a clean damp cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with
a little washing-up liquid, but make sure you remove all trace of it before using the steamer.
•
Don’t put the base unit in water or any other liquid.
•
Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
Descaling
•
In time, scale deposits may build up on the interior surfaces of the reservoir and element. These
deposits will impair the efficiency of the steamer, and may shorten its working life.
•
To descale the reservoir and element, fill the reservoir with 600 ml (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 juice collector, Baskets (2), Rice Bowl (6), or Lid (1).
•
After the 20 minutes is up, leave it to cool completely, then pour out the vinegar and rinse the
reservoir several times with cold water, to remove all trace of the vinegar.
•
Pour from the end of the reservoir, to prevent liquid getting to the timer at the front, or the mains
lead at the rear.
•
Dry the base unit thoroughly.
•
Don’t use any liquid other than white vinegar, and don’t use a proprietary descaler.
Stacking and storing
•
The Baskets (2) have been designed to stack, to occupy less storage space than conventional
steamers.
•
Reverse the order of the Baskets (2). Sit the largest Basket (2) on top of the base unit, put the
middle Basket (2) inside it, then put the smallest Basket (2) inside the middle one. Now put the
juice tray inside the smallest Basket (2) (it’s a tight fit), then turn the Rice Bowl (6) upside down
and put that on top of the juice tray. Turn the Separator (10) on its side and lay it on the Rice Bowl
(6), then put the Lid (1) on top of the lot. The total height is less than 270 mm.
