reference only as the required amount and pro-
portions of the ingredients may vary depend-
ing on local peculiarities of the food and altitude
above sea level.

hours at room temperature before switching on.
–
Unpack the unit, remove any stickers and package
materials that can prevent normal operation of the
multicooker.
–
Place the unit on a flat, heat-resistant surface away
from all kitchen heat sources (gas cooker, electric
cooker or cooking unit).
–
Place the multicooker keeping at least a 20 cm gap
between the multicooker body and the wall and at
least a 30-40 cm gap above the unit.
–
Do not place the multicooker close to the objects
that can be damaged by the released steam of high
temperature.
Attention! Do not use the unit near bath tubs, kitchen
sinks or other containers filled with water.

USING OF THE MULTICOOKER
–
Place the food in the bowl following the recipe (see
“Recipe book”).
Note
: Make sure that the ingredients and liquids level
does not exceed the maximal mark “1.8L” andthat it is not
lower than the minimal mark “0.6L”. Maximal level mark
for porridges (except rice) is «1.4L»
General example of loading products and water (as
an example rice is considered)
Measure rice with the measuring cup (16) (one measuring
cup is equal to approximately 160 grams of rice), wash it
and place in the casserole.
Add water up to the corresponding level.
For simplicity use the graduated scale in cups (CUP).
The scale has graduation, marking proportions of rice
and water.
Example:
If you put four measuring cups of cereal, pour
water up to the mark of 4 cups (CUP).
For cooking thin milk porridges the recommended pro-
portion of rice and water is 1:3.
–
Put the bowl (12) in the process chamber. Make sure
that the outer surface of the bowl (12) is clean and
dry, and the bowl itself (12) is placed evenly and is
in secure contact with heating element (10) surface.
Notes:
–
do not use the bowl (12) for washing cereals and
do not chop products in it, this can damage the
non-stick coating;
–
make sure that there are no foreign objects, dirt
or moisture in the process chamber and on the
bottom of the bowl (12);
–
wipe the outer surface and the bottom of the bowl
(12) dry before use;
–
there is a temperature sensor (11) in the middle of
the heating element (10); make sure that nothing
prevents free sensor movement.
–
If you steam products, pour water into the bowl (12)
so that boiling water doesn’t reach the bottom of the
basket (13). Put the basket with food (13) into the
bowl (12).
–
Close the lid (4) until click.

cooking program, the cooking program indicator will
light up
Attention!

ditional program settings, in 10 seconds you will hear
a sound signal and the multicooker will be switched
on in the selected food cooking mode.
