Before using your food steamer, make sure it is OFF and cold. Fill water tank with cold water. To do so, pour the
water directly into the water tank. The amount of water depends on the required cooking time. However, it is very
important to respect the minimum and maximum level. Non-observance of this instruction could damage your
appliance. Do not add any herbs, spices or other liquid such as wine or broth to the water in the water tank.
Place the steam nozzle around the heating element, with the large end face down.
Place the food in the different steaming bowls/baskets. Do not add seasoning, herbs etc. until cooking has been
completed.
Note:
if steaming meat, place it in the bowl at the bottom, so that it is closest to the water
Always place the drip tray onto the water tank before adding a steaming bowl.
Note:
each bowl is numbered 1, 2 or 3 on its handle.
Always place the steaming bowl #1 at the bottom (#3
would be the bowl always placed at the top)
If using more than one tier, place steam bowl #2 on top of steam bowl #1; and then, optionally, place steam bowl
#3 on top of #2, ensuring the jags at the base of each bowl fit into the grooves of the container below it.

Caution: always use the side handles to move the bowls or trays.
Pay attention during the positioning of
the baskets because if they are not placed correctly, steam may escape through the side of your appliance and
may burn you.
Place the lid on the upper basket. Make sure the holes in the lid are not blocked, as the steam must be able to
circulate and escape.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE UNCOVERED - STEAM IS GENERATED DURING
USE.
Plug the power cord into a wall outlet
Turn the control knob / timer to the correct time setting for the food you wish to steam (see the Cooking Guide
below). The pilot light will turn on. If the cooking time is less than 10 minutes, please turn the dial past 10 minutes
and then turn it back to the desired cooking time.
When the cooking time has elapsed, the bell will sound, and the pilot light and the heating element will shut off.
Unplug the power cord and, using mitts or gloves, lift the lid and steam bowl carefully, taking care to avoid facial or
hand contact with the steam.
Warning: steam can cause scalding and burns!
Check the food to make sure it is cooked thoroughly. If not, replace the steam bowls and reset the control knob.
Check the water level to make sure it is not empty.
Note:
The water in the product is heated to 212°F (100°C). Use extreme caution while steaming food, removing
food, or when you may come into contact with the water or the steam. Do not touch the heating element.
Note:
it is possible to refill the water tank during the cooking, using a water bottle and adding water through the
sides of the drip tray.
Once cooking is complete, unplug the steamer, and carefully remove the steam bowls and lid.
Note: the appliance stops automatically once all the water has run out.
