and clean the appliance as described in the
section General Care and Cleaning below.
Operation
-
Before the appliance is used, the water
container must be filled with cold, clean
water, observing the maximum marking.
-
Place the steam tube into the centre of
the water container, ensuring that the
three small openings on the tube fit
properly onto the corresponding
alignment studs in the container.
-
Fit the juice collection tray onto the
housing and make sure it is safely
attached.
-
The steamer bowls can be stacked as
desired. However, ensure that stacking
rings are placed between the bowls.
-
Place the food to be cooked into the
steamer bowl. Larger food items require
a longer cooking time; they should
therefore be placed in a lower bowl.
● When steaming food, always use the
steamer bowls. Do not put food directly
into the water container or the juice
collection tray.
-
When cooking rice, the rice container
must be placed inside the lowest bowl.
Fill the container with rice to a maximum
of 375 g.
-
Place the steamer bowls on the juice
collection tray.
-
Close the lid.
-
Carefully check that all parts of the
assembly have been correctly fitted and
are safely connected.
-
Insert the plug into a suitable wall socket.
-
First set the current time by pressing the
MENÜ -key and then using the
+ and
-
keys to adjust the hour. Press MENÜ
again to change to the minutes’ setting.
Again, use the
+ and
-
keys to adjust
the minutes.
-
Set the desired steaming time as
described in the section ‘Menus’ and start
the programme.
-
While steaming is in progress, a certain
amount of water evaporates from the
water container. To prevent it from
evaporating completely, it is important to
replenish the water in good time. Refill
with a sufficient amount of water through
the water filler opening.
-
Once the programmed steaming time has
elapsed, an acoustic signal is heard. The
arrow symbol ▼ appears on the display
right above the symbol , indicating
that the pre-set cooking time has elapsed.
-
Carefully proceed to lift off the steamer
bowls from the appliance and place them
on a surface resistant to heat and water.
-
Always use an oven cloth when
removing the rice container: hold the
container only by its handles.
-
Always remove the plug from the wall
socket after use; allow sufficient time for
the appliance to cool down.
Menus
The food steamer offers 6 different menus,
which can be called up with the MENÜ -
key.
