WARNING: during steaming do not touch the base, bowls or lid
as they get very hot.
WARNING: to prevent burns, always use oven gloves or a cloth
when removing the lid or steaming bowls as hot steam will
escape. Remove the lid slowly with the inside of the lid pointing
away from you and let the steam escape gradually. Hold the lid
over the unit to allow any condensation to drain into the
steamer.
DO NOT reach into the unit while steaming. If you need to
check on cooking progress or to stir the food, use a long
handled utensil.
ADDING WATER DURING STEAMING
Periodically look into the water filler
compartment. If you cannot see the water
level you need to add water to the steamer
(especially if you are steaming for a long
period).
Add water via the filler compartment and
top it up to the MAX level. Do NOT overfill.
You may use lukewarm (but not hot) water if
you wish.
If the water falls below the minimum mark, the steamer will
automatically stop steaming as a safety measure. If you do not fill
the steamer, it will switch off completely after a short period.
To continue, fill the reservoir reset the steaming time and then
press the ON/OFF button.
