KENWOOD FS250 & FS260
to use your steamer
Keep your steamer away from walls and overhanging
cupboards: the steam could damage them.
Season food after cooking. If seasoning gets into the water, it
could damage the heating element.
See the cooking guides on pages 9 - 11.
Your steamer is for domestic use only.
Fit the strainer inside the water tank. (It stops bits getting into
1
the steamer.)
Pour cold water into the tank up to:
2
'Max' if you're cooking for over 30 minutes; or
'Min' if you're cooking for under 30 minutes.
Filtered water is best as it reduces limescale (Kenwood water
filters are widely available).
Don't add anything (even salt or pepper) to the water – it could
damage the heating element.
You can top up the water during cooking if the steam slows
down or stops.
Sit the drip tray inside the base.
3
Put the basket on the base. (Don't use the separator ring.)
Stack the baskets on the base, fitting a separator ring between
the baskets.
Put water and rice in the rice bowl. Put the rice bowl into
a basket. (You can also cook something in the other basket(s)
if you like. If you do, fit a separator ring between the baskets.)
Fit the lid, plug in and set the timer. The light will come on and
4
steam will soon appear.
When the time is up, a bell will ring, the light will go out and your
5
steamer will switch off automatically.
Unplug and clean after use.
