Do not add anything to the water. Any seasonings or marinades should be
added to the food not the water as otherwise they will collect in the reservoir and
could cause damage.
WARNING! Voltage is still present even when the timer is at the “0” position,
to completely turn off the steamer remove the mains plug from mains power
supply.
Steaming Rice
Fill the steamer with water to the ‘MAX’ mark and place Steamer Basket 1 (1) on
to the base.
Measure rice and water into the Rice Bowl (5) according to the cooking guide
below.
Place the Rice Bowl (5) centrally inside the basket and put on the Lid (4). Steam for
the appropriate cooking time according to the below guide, stirring halfway
through the cooking time. If cooking rice with other foods such as meat or fish,
place the rice in the top Steamer Basket 3 (3).
After cooking drain then rinse the rice with boiling water before serving.
Boil dry protection
Should you accidentally let the appliance operate without water; the boil-dry
protection will automatically switch off the power. If this occurs, allow the
appliance to cool and reset before use.
Lime scale removal
• To maintain the performance of your steamer it is recommended you descale it
once every three months to increase the life expectancy and reduce lime scale
build up. In hard water areas we highly recommend using filtered water in your
steamer to increase the life expectancy and help prevent excessive lime scale
build up.
• Do not use vinegar but a commercially available descaling agent; carefully
follow the quantities recommended in the instructions of the agent.
