Boil dry alarm

sound, the digital display will flash, and cooking will stop
automatically.
Immediately add more cold water by slowly pouring through the
external water top-up.

start from when it stopped.
Removing food from the steamer
•
WARNING: Use oven gloves to remove the lids and containers,
ensuring the lids are tilted to direct the steam away from you.
Do not remove the drip tray until it is completely cooled.
COOKING HINTS AND TIPS
•
For best results, use pieces of food that are similar in size. If pieces
vary in size and layering is required, place smaller pieces on top.
•
Do not crowd food in the containers or rice bowl. Arrange the food
with spaces between pieces to allow for maximum steam flow.
•
Never steam meat, poultry or seafood from frozen. Always
completely thaw first.
•
Meat, poultry and seafood can be wrapped and cooked in cooking
foil to retain juices.
