Hints & Tips
The temperature is fixed at 100°C and speed options cannot be selected.
The cooking times are a guide only. Always check that food is thoroughly cooked before eating.
If your food is not cooked enough, reset the time. You may need to top up with water.
Leave gaps between pieces of food and do not layer the food in the basket or tray.
Similar sized pieces of food cook more evenly.
When steaming more than 1 type of food, if something needs less time, add it later or place it in the tray
shelf.
Do not allow the unit to boil dry, top up with water as necessary.
If operating for more than 1 hour you will need to top up the water to the 1 litre mark.
Food in the steam tray base will generally cook quicker than food in the steam tray shelf.
