Step-by-Step Instructions for Using Manual Functions - cont.
WARNING: Place the vent hole on the lid facing away from you.
WARNING: Use oven mitts when moving the unit, opening the lid, and when inserting or removing food.
NOTE: Foods or sauces that are high in sugar (like barbecue sauce) or oils with a low smoke point (like olive oil) are prone to burning when exposed
to high heat. To avoid burning these foods when cooking them in Bake mode, limit cook time for high-sugar foods and/or use oils with higher
smoke points (like canola, peanut, sunflower, and safflower oils).
NOTE: When roasting meats on the steaming/roasting rack in Bake mode, drippings can burn. To avoid burning, add water to the cooking pot so it
reaches just below the rack. As the water will evaporate over the baking time (the higher the heat, the faster the water will evaporate), maintain
the water level so it catches the drippings and doesn't let them burn.
Steam:
Refer to the Steaming Chart on the next page for recommended
steaming times, liquid amounts, and seasoning ideas.
1
Place the cooking pot into the unit's main housing. Plug in
the unit and press the Power button to turn it on.

Add water to the cooking pot according to the Steaming
Chart on the following page. Then cover the pot with the
lid.
3
Press the STEAM button.

Press the TIME button once to set the time according
to the Steaming Chart located on page 13. The time is
adjustable in 1-minute increments from 1 minute to 1 hour
by turning the adjustment knob.
NOTE: The temperature function is not available in Steam
mode.

Once you have set the steaming time, the unit will begin
the steaming cycle after 3 seconds. You can also press
the START/STOP button before 3 seconds is up to start
the steaming cycle. The unit will beep and the Temp/Time
display will read "P:" to signify the unit is preheating.
6
While the unit preheats, arrange your ingredients on the
steaming/roasting rack.
7
When the water is fully boiling, the unit will beep and timer
will begin to count down.
8
CAREFULLY open the lid away from you and use oven mitts
to place the rack in the pot.
9
Check food occasionally during steaming, and remove it
promptly when done to avoid overcooking.
10
When the countdown timer reaches zero, the unit will beep
3 times and then switch to Stay Warm for up to 12 hours.
Alternatively, you can press the Power button to stop
cooking prior to the end of your set time (the unit will not
switch to Stay Warm in that case).
