OPERATION
SUITABLE CONTAINERS
The Electric Steamer comes equipped with one ¼
size perforated stainless steel food pan. Optional
different size pans are available, both perforated
and solid.
CAUTION
To avoid unsafe conditions do not mix products
that may contaminate each other during thawing
process.
NOTICE
Use only suitable containers that are heat and
steam resistant to 100°C (212°F).
When choosing the most suitable container for
particular food products, take into consideration the
following guidelines:
• Perforated pans are ideal for steaming large to
medium vegetables. The perforated pan allows
the steam to encompass the whole vegetable
and cook evenly and thoroughly.
• When using perforated pans, we recommend
placing a solid condensation pan underneath to
catch any dripping condensation.
NOTE: Two perforated pans containing different
foods should not be used at the same time in the
steam oven without being separated by a
condensation pan. The integrity of the food taste
may be jeopardized with moisture dripping from the
pan above.
• Solid shallow pans are recommended for dishes
that are more compact such as casseroles,
bakes, or foods small in size.
• Foods prepared in deeper pans will take longer
to cook.
• Use the metal rack when multiple smaller pans or
bottling is needed.
• All containers must be rated to withstand hot
steam up to 100°C (212°F) temperatures. Heat
resistant glass, ceramics, porcelain, plastic,
stainless steel or enamel dishes are all suitable
containers.
• Containers with thick sides will lengthen or
increase cook times.
Form No. STMSM-1007
• Ensure that at least a 30 mm (1") gap is left
between the upper rim of the container and the
top of the steam oven. This will allow for
sufficient steam to enter into the container.
OPERATION
Some exterior surfaces on the unit will get hot.
Use caution when touching these areas to avoid
injury.
To prevent any injury, discontinue use if power
cord is frayed or worn.
To prevent any injury or damage to the unit, do
not pull unit by power cord.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by Hatco, an Authorized Service Agent,
or a person with similar qualifications to avoid a
hazard.
The appliance is not waterproof. To avoid
electrical shock or personal injury, DO NOT
submerge in water. Do not operate if it has been
submerged in water.
To avoid the risk of injury, scalding or damage to
the appliance DO NOT heat food in sealed jars or
tins. Pressure will build up inside them and
explode.
For safe and proper operation do not place food
product directly onto bottom of unit. Use of a
perforated pan is recommended for holding food
product.
Do not store cooked food in appliance for long
periods of time. The moisture in the food can
lead to corrosion in the appliance.
Use only suitable containers that are heat and
steam resistant to 100°C (212°F).
NOTE: The first time the steam oven is used it will
emit more than a normal amount of steam from the
appliance.
