Before cleaning your Sunbeam VitaSteam
Electronic, ensure the power is turned off at
the power outlet and the plug removed.
Wash the rice bowl, steaming trays, drip tray
and the lid in warm, soapy water, rinse and
dry.
DO NOT wash in dishwasher as the hot water
temperatures and harsh detergents may
eventually warp and scratch these parts. DO
NOT use abrasives or abrasive cleaners as
these may also scratch the surfaces.
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 or
abrasive cleaners as these may scratch the
Steamer base.
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 Electronic 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, place
the lid in position on the Steamer base and
operate your Sunbeam VitaSteam Electronic
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 steaming
trays or rice cooker bowl in position. This will
ensure that the odour is not transferred to
the next steaming cycle.
