baskets, bases and rice/sauce cooking
bowl in warm soapy water, rinse and
dry thoroughly.

Removal of mineral deposits
Mineral deposits may accumulate in
the steamer base and attachments. It

Prepare a de-scaling solution by mixing
2 cups of water and 1 tablespoon of
lemon juice or white vinegar. Pour the
de-scaling solution into the water reservoir,
insert the drip tray then a steamer basket
with lid on top. Set the steaming time
to approximately 15 minutes and allow
steam to circulate. Allow the food steamer
and liquid to cool before dismantling for
cleaning. If excess scale build-up still
remains, repeat the process.

unplugged from the power outlet and
all parts have been cleaned, dried and
assembled before storing. Ensure the
