Using the Steamer Baskets
Steam vegetables, meat, fish, dumplings, and even make
tamales with our steamer baskets. Plus, you can easily
cook two different foods at the same time!
1. Fill the inner pot of Deluxe Multi Cooker with 1 cup
(250 mL) water.
2. Add food to the basket(s) and lower into the Deluxe
Multi Cooker. Lock the lid, select
the time according to the chart. For zero-minute cook
times, the food cooks during the pressure-building
time. Press and hold
3. When the timer is up, press
the pressure. Carefully remove the lid and lift the
basket(s) out by the handle using oven mitts.

Hit steam release button and then after steam released, hit X button, but red button not dropping
The red pressure indicator button on the Pampered Chef Deluxe Multi Cooker may not drop after releasing steam and pressing the X button because there may still be remaining pressure inside the cooker. After releasing steam manually by pressing the steam release button, it is recommended to wait a few minutes to allow any residual pressure to escape. If the red button still does not drop, ensure that all pressure has been fully released by pressing the steam release button again. Additionally, check if the lid is properly aligned and that no food particles are blocking the steam release valve.
