Preparation
Do not
immerse the base unit
or water tank when
cleaning in water.
Keep away
from any objects
which could be
damaged by the
steam.
Do not use
seasoning or any
other liquid other than
water in the water
tank.
Make sure
there is water in the
tank prior to use.
Prior to use
• Using warm water and washing up
liquid, wash all the removable parts and
the inside of the water tank.
• Rinse and dry.
Preparing the steam
cooker
• Place the base unit on a stable surface.
• Place the turbo ring around the heating
element ensuring it is the right way
round (the largest part on the bottom).
Filling the water tank
• There are two ways to fill the water tank:
A. Pour the water directly into the water
tank, up to the maximum level.
B. Open the water-fill drawer on the
right-hand side of the base and pour in
water up to the maximum level. Close
the drawer.
• Check that the turbo ring is positioned
correctly.
• Place the juice collector on the tank until
firmly in place.
• Use fresh water with each use.
Positioning the removable
bases
• The baskets have bases which can be
removed to obtain a larger cooking
space or to cook larger foods.
• To position the bases:
- Place the basket on the table.
- Hold the base right side up (clips
toward the bottom).
- Centre the base inside the basket.
- Press on the clips until the base is loc-
ked into place.
• To remove the bases, push up from
underneath.
