WARNING
Use extreme caution when removing the baskets. Never remove all the baskets
together. Remove the baskets one at a time starting with the top one. Use oven
gloves or similar to help protect against burns from hot steam.
BOILING DRY
In the event that all of the water has been used up during steaming, a protection
device will switch your steamer off, but the light will remain lit (unless the timer has
returned to 0).
The thermostat will cycle on and off till either;
• you add water,
• the timer switches the steamer off.
Unplug the base unit, let it cool for a few minutes, then fill it with boiling water and
start again.
SUGGESTED STEAMING TIMES
The times given are in minutes, for a single layer of food, in the bottom basket, used
on its own. Extend these times:
• If two or three baskets are used – the steam has to heat more food.
• Generally, the further the food is from the element, the longer it’ll take to cook.
• If food is layered within a basket .
You’ll need to experiment to find the times and positions that suit your favourite
foods and food combinations.
