USING THE +STEAMER ATTACHMENT
GETTING STARTED
Pour approximately 4 cups (960 mL) of water
into the Steamer Water Basin, and then place the
Perforated Steamer Tray onto the Steamer Water
Basin.
The +Steamer Attachment was designed to hold
6 servings of food. Arrange food in a single layer
on the Perforated Steamer Tray with space around
each piece. Cover with the Steamer Lid.
STEAM ASSIST MODE
The Steam Assist Mode combines the dry heat
of a convection oven with steam to create a
humid environment for cooking, enhancing the
flavor and texture of foods. It is ideal for items
like cheesecake, breads, and a whole chicken or
turkey, as it results in a moist interior and perfectly
browned exterior of the food.
The Steam Assist Mode uses the +Steamer
Attachment. When cooking with the Steam Assist
Mode, do not use the Steamer Lid. This will allow
the steam to escape and fill the oven cavity during
the cooking process.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
y
Like-sized pieces will cook more evenly.
y
Different types foods, such as fish and
vegetables, may be cooked at the same time
without mixing their flavors.
y
For best results, choose foods that cook for
approximately the same length of time.
y
Always open the Steamer Lid away from you
to allow steam to escape.
y
Opening the oven and removing the Steamer
Lid frequently during steaming will affect the
quality of the food. Check food only when
necessary.
y
When using Steam Assist for foods like
cheesecake, place the food in a standard pan
and set it directly in the Perforated Steamer
Tray; set it inside the Steamer Water Basin, but
do not cover with the Steamer Lid.
y
When using Steam Assist for items, like bread
or poultry, place the food in a regular pan,
according to baking instructions, and place
it on the standard rack above the +Steamer
Attachment.
