desired, ensure sufcient water is in the inner pot.
CAUTION: If adding additional water to the inner pot, using an oven mitt or tea towel, lift
the steamer basket and place on a heat-proof surface. Be careful to avoid scalding from
escaping steam.
• When your food has been steamed to satisfaction raise the cooking selector lever to On/
WARM and unplug from the wall power outlet.
