function can be used with the STEAM, RICE/GRAINS, BEANS/CHILI, MEAT/POULTRY, SOUP/STEW and MANUAL
settings.
*vs when cooking in the Crockpot CSC062 using the high pressure setting.
STEAMING
The STEAM function is perfect for gently steaming fish and vegetables. It is pre-programmed to use the HIGH pressure
cooking setting. When steaming, use the Steaming Rack.
Capacity: When the Multi-Cooker is used with the STEAM function, the maximum capacity of liquid should be just under the
rack wires, so that the liquid is not touching the food.
Note: The unit cannot pressure cook without liquid. Ensure a minimum of 250ml of liquid is used inside the removable
Cooking Pot.
USING THE STEAM FUNCTION
Place the Multi-Cooker on a flat, level surface.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug the Multi-Cooker into a wall outlet. The Multi-Cooker will beep, and the
Display Screen will illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
1. Add 250ml of water to the bottom of the removable Cooking Pot and insert the cooking rack. Ensure water is just
under the wires of the rack so that food is not touching water.
2. Place your food on the cooking rack.
3. Place the Lid on and lock by rotating counterclockwise to the LOCKED position.
4. Rotate the Steam Release Dial to the “Seal” position.
5. Press the STEAM button and adjust the time and pressure as needed.
Note: See the Cooking Guide on page 12 to find the possible time and pressure adjustments.
6. Once you have made the desired adjustments, if any, press START/STOP.

7. The Multi-Cooker needs to gain pressure before pressure cooking can begin. When the Multi-Cooker is gaining
pressure, “HEAt” will appear on the Display Screen and the time will not count down. When pressure has been
reached, “HEAt” will disappear on the Display Screen, all 5 lights on the status bar will be illuminated and the time will
begin to count down.
8. After the set cooking time has elapsed, the Multi-Cooker will beep and will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM
setting. The Display Screen will therefore change from the cook time to a new timer that will count up to 4:00 (4
hours) or until you press the START/STOP button. After 4 hours in the KEEP WARM setting, the Multi-Cooker will turn
off.
TIP: See the Steaming Chart on page 13.
CAUTION: During cooking, steam will build up in the Multi-Cooker, so when lifting the Lid use a kitchen glove or mitt to
protect your hand.
