Only fill the Water Reservoir with cold water. Do not fill with warm or
hot water, salt, pepper, seasonings, herbs, wine, stock or any other
liquid.
B Make sure the Water Reservoir is filled up to the MAX line as indicated
on the Water Level Window. Do not overfill the Water Reservoir above
the MAX line and never allow the water level to fall below the MIN line
to prevent damaging the appliance. Water can be added during the
steaming process via the Drip Tray Water Spout.
C
Steamer Housing, Steamer Baskets, Steamer Trays, Lids, and Steamer
Basket Handles will become very hot while cooking. Do not touch
them with your hands during operation.

To avoid burn injury, keep away from the Steam Vent on the Lid when
steamer is in use.
E
Before turning on the steamer, ensure that the Drip Tray, Basket(s),
Steamer Tray(s), and Lid(s) are properly assembled onto the Housing.
This will prevent scalding injury as a result of the hot steam coming
from the Housing.
