Preparing for use
1 Put the appliance on a stable, horizontal and level surface.
2 Fill the water tank with water up to the maximum level. With a full water tank, the steamer
can steam for approximately 1 hour (Fig. 2).
Only fill the water tank with water. Never put seasoning, oil, or other substances in the water
tank.
3 Place the drip tray on the water tank in the base (Fig. 3).
Never use the appliance without the drip tray.
4 If desired, put dried or fresh herbs or spices on the flavour booster to add extra flavour to
the food to be steamed (Fig. 4).
Thyme, coriander, basil, dill, curry and tarragon are some of the exciting herbs and spices that you
can put on the flavour booster. You can combine them with garlic, caraway or horseradish to
enhance flavour without adding salt. We advise you to use 1/2 to 3tsp of dried herbs or spices. Use
more if you use fresh herbs or spices.
For suggested herbs or spices for various types of food, see the food steaming table in chapter ‘Food
table and steaming tips’.
Tip: If you use ground herbs or spices, rinse the drip tray to wet the flavour booster. This prevents ground
herbs or spices from falling through the openings of the flavour booster (Fig. 5).
5 Put the food to be steamed in the steaming bowl or the duo bowl.
Tip: Put eggs on the egg holders to steam eggs conveniently (Fig. 6).
6 If you use the duo bowl, place it in the steaming bowl (Fig. 7).
Note: Never use the duo bowl without the steaming bowl. The duo bowl does not fit properly on the base
and the steam would not be guided through your food properly.
7 Arrange the food with ample space between the pieces to allow maximum steam flow. Do
not put too much food in the steaming bowl and the duo bowl.
8 Put the steaming bowl (with the duo bowl) on the drip tray. (Fig. 8)
Note: Make sure you place the bowl properly and that it does not wobble.
9 Put the lid on the steaming bowl (Fig. 9).
Note: If the lid is not placed on the steaming bowl properly or at all, the food is not steamed properly.
Duo bowl
You can use the duo bowl to prepare several ingredients at the same time. When you insert the
duo bowl in the steaming bowl, there is room under the duo bowl for ingredients that do not take
up a lot of space, such as peas.
Note: Never use the duo bowl without the steaming bowl. The duo bowl does not fit properly on the base
and the steam would not be guided through your food properly.
Using the appliance
1 Put the plug in the wall socket.
, The appliance beeps.
, The light ring round the ON/STOP button lights up (Fig. 10).
2 Press the menu button for the type of food you want to steam (Fig. 11).
For the preset steaming times of the menu buttons, see chapter ‘Food table and steaming tips’.
