Before cleaning your Sunbeam VitaSteam,
ensure the power is turned off at the power
outlet and the plug removed.
Wash the rice bowl, steam tray, drip trays
and the lid with a soft cloth in warm, soapy
water, rinse and dry. DO NOT wash in an
automatic dishwasher as the hot water
temperatures and harsh detergents may
ultimately warp and scratch these parts.
DO NOT use abrasives, abrasive cleaners or
alkaline cleaning agents when cleaning as
these may scratch or damage the unit.
Wipe out the interior of the steamer base
with a warm, damp cloth or a small brush.
Wipe the exterior of the base with a damp
cloth or sponge. DO NOT use abrasives,
abrasive cleaners or alkaline cleaning agents
when cleaning as these may scratch or
damage the unit.
Warning.
NEVER IMMERSE THE BASE OF YOUR
STEAMER IN WATER OR ANY OTHER
LIQUID.
Important – Mineral Deposits.
Mineral deposits may accumulate on the
Exposed Heating Element which can result in
your Sunbeam VitaSteam switching off before
the cooking cycle is complete. To remove this
build up use a wet scouring pad and rub over
the surface of the heating element only after
each use.
Alternatively, prepare a solution of either:
(i) 2 cups of water in which 1 teaspoon of
cream of tartar has been dissolved; or
(ii) 2 cups of water to which 1 tablespoon
of lemon juice or white vinegar has been
added.
Pour the solution into the reservoir, position
the Lid and operate your Sunbeam VitaSteam
for approximately 15 minutes. Remove the
lid and clean as directed. If excess scale has
built up, repeat this process.
Note:
If food with a strong odour, such as fish
and cabbage has been steamed, the above
procedure may be followed with the Steamer
trays or rice cooker bowl in position. This will
ensure that the odour is not transferred to
the next steaming cycle.
