Using the Steaming Function
1. Make sure that the power outlet is
switched off and that the multi-
cooker is unplugged from the
power outlet.
2. Set the mode selector dial
to ‘STANDBY’.
3. Place the removable cooking
bowl inside the stainless steel
housing.
4. Ensure the bowl is positioned
correctly before continuing.
5. Add 1 litre of cold water.
6. Plug your multi-cooker into a
230V or 240V power outlet. The
‘POWER’ indicator light will flash.
7. Set the control dial to the ‘STEAM’
position. After a few seconds, the
‘POWER’ indicator light will stop
flashing and remain on as the
multi-cooker heats up.
8. When the water has heated
sufficiently to produce steam,
add the foodstuff to the steamer
tray. Make sure that some of the
steam holes in the steamer tray
remain uncovered to allow the
steam to penetrate the foodstuff.
9. Don’t overfill the steamer tray
otherwise the vegetables may be
unevenly cooked.
10. Using oven mitts, carefully
place the steamer tray into the
removable cooking bowl.
11. Place the glass lid onto your
multi-cooker.
NOTE: Unless your recipe states
otherwise, avoid removing the
lid during steaming. Removing
the lid unnecessarily will result in
a loss of steam and the cooking
time will need to be extended.
12. Steam the foodstuff for the
appropriate time. For cooking
times see the steam cooking
guide on page 15. If further
steaming is required ensure there
is sufficient water in the bowl.
Add more water as required
and replace the steaming tray
and glass lid. Take care when
removing the lid. Angle the lid
away from you in order to allow
the excess steam to escape.
NOTE: Always check that your
food is thoroughly cooked
before serving.
NOTE: Beware of hot steam
escaping from the vent hole in
the glass lid.
NOTE: Your multi-cooker does
not switch off automatically.
After Use
After use, set the mode selector to
‘STANDBY’ and unplug your multi-
cooker from the supply socket.
