You can interrupt operations any time you wish simply by turning the Time knob to the “0” position.
You can also change the cooking time (while the foodstuff is being cooked) simply by turning this same
knob forward or backward. You can check on the situation while the cooking is in progress by
opening the door and examining the food. That move will interrupt the oven’s operations, but they will
begin again once the door has been closed.
Important: during cooking, very hot steam is produced inside the accessory.
When lifting the lid, take care to avoid burns caused by puffs of steam.
Hold the accessory by the plastic base only and lift the lid by the top handle, avoiding contact with
metal parts of the accessory.
This accessory can be used to cook food with the moist heat of boiling water, without direct contact
between the food and the water which would lead to a loss of nutrient salts.
The STEAM accessory has a metal lid which blocks passage of the microwaves. The microwaves heat
the water in the plastic part only, the water generates steam and this cooks the food.
Use 200 cc of water for cooking times of less than 12 minutes and 400 cc for longer periods. Never
use the accessory with less than 200 cc of water in the container (empty) to avoid damage or
electrical discharges within the steam accessory. If the water evaporates completely before the end
of cooking, add a further 200 cc of water to the container.
The times indicated in the table are an average and must be adjusted to take account of these simple
fundamental rules.
• cooking times depend on the size of the food.
Vegetables cut in pieces will cook faster than whole vegetables.
•food at room temperature will cook before food taken directly from the refrigerator.
•the results of the cooking will always depend on the quality and freshness of the ingredients.
• never use the accessory if it is visibly damaged, broken or warped.
Never cook without using the metal base and lid.
