to use your steamer
●
Keep your steamer away from walls
and overhanging cupboards: the
steam could damage them.
●
Season food after cooking. If
seasoning gets into the water, it
could damage the heating element.

See the cooking guides on pages 5
and 6.
1 Fit the strainer inside the water tank.
(It stops bits getting into the
element.)
2 Pour cold water into the tank.
Always make sure the water is
between the ‘Min’ and ‘Max’ levels
marked. (When filled to ‘Max’, this
will produce steam for approximately
45-50 minutes.)
