Breville recommends safety first
We at Breville are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with the safety of you, our valued customer foremost in mind. In addition, we ask that you exercise a degree of care when using any electrical appliance and adhere to the following precautions:
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR YOUR BREVILLE HEALTH SMART FOOD STEAMER
Carefully read all instructions before operating the appliance and retain for future reference.
Remove any packaging material and promotional labels before using the food steamer for the first time.
To eliminate a potential choking hazard for young children, remove and safely discard the protective cover fitted over the pins of the power plug when unpacking appliance for the first time.
Do not place the food steamer near the edge of a table, counter or bench top during operation. Ensure that the surface is level, clean and free of water.
Do not place this appliance on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or where it could touch a heated oven.
Do not place any part of the food steamer in a gas, electric or microwave oven or on a hot gas or electric burner.
Keep food steamer clear of walls, curtains and other heat or steam sensitive materials. Minimum 200mm distance.
Do not use food steamer on metal surfaces, for example, a sink drain board.
Always ensure the food steamer is properly assembled before use. Follow the instructions provided in this book.
The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote control system.
Do not put any food or liquid other than water into the water reservoir in the steamer base. Only the steam baskets and rice/sauce cooking bowl are designed to cook food.
Do not leave the appliance unattended when
in use.
Do not move the food steamer during operation.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use the handles to remove the lid, steamer baskets and rice/sauce cooking bowl. Take care to avoid any steam escaping from the steam outlet holes on the steamer lid. Use dry oven mitts to protect hands.
Always lift the lid away from you, when removing from steamer basket, to avoid steam escaping from under the lid. Carefully lift and remove the steamer baskets and rice/sauce cooking bowl by the handles to avoid scalding from escaping steam. Use dry oven mitts to protect hands.
Always ensure the food steamer is switched off at the power outlet and the power plug is removed from the power outlet before attempting to move the appliance, when the appliance is not in use and before cleaning or storing. Allow the steamer base and removable drip tray to cool before disassembling for cleaning and discarding liquid.

Operating your Breville Avance® HealthSmart® Steamer
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove any packaging material and promotional labels from the food steamer.
Wash the lid, steamer baskets, rice/sauce cooking bowl, drip tray, steam diffuser and filter plug in warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly, also wipe the inside of the water reservoir, before using the food steamer for the first time.
DO NOT IMMERSE THE POWER CORD OR
STEAMER BASE IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
OPERATION OF YOUR HEALTHSMART® FOOD STEAMER
Step 1
Remove the lid, steamer baskets and drip tray from the steamer base and ensure the filter plug is correctly positioned in the water reservoir.
Step 2
Pour sufficient clean, tap water, up to 1 litre, into the water reservoir of the steamer base and ensure the maximum MAX level on the water window is not exceeded. Also ensure the water level does not fall below the minimum MIN level during operation.
If cooking for long periods of time, allow the water to reach the MIN level, then add extra water to align with the TOP-UP level on the water window. This may need to be repeated when steaming for extended periods of time. Do not refill past the TOP-UP line when the food steamer is in operation. The extra water can be poured into the water reservoir through the pull-out water spout on the right-hand side of the steamer base. For easy access, ensure the water spout is in the pull-out position during steaming.

Step 3
Correctly position the drip tray into place on top of the steamer base by ensuring the indent (on one long side of the drip tray) fits over control panel mechanism in water reservoir.
Step 4

screen will show the time as 00:00.
2.
Press SET button once on control panel and LCD screen time changes to 00:20 with STEAMER flashing in top right hand corner.
3.
After approx 10 seconds, the word STEAMER stops flashing, the timer colon starts flashing and the red light above power button illuminates, hence heating commences and the time starts counting down in 1 minute increments. Steaming commences within 30 seconds and will continue for 20 minutes.

3.
Immediately press the HOURS or MIN button and continue pressing until the required time is reached. Steaming can be set from 1 minute to 1 hour and 59 minutes.
4.
After approx 10 seconds, the word STEAMER stops flashing, the timer colon starts flashing and the red light above power button illuminates, hence heating commences and the time starts counting down in 1 minute increments. Steaming commences within 30 seconds and will continue for 20 minutes.
If a lesser time than 20 min is desired, continue pressing the MIN button until the timer reverts to 00:00 then continue until desired time is reached.
Keep Warm Setting

Instant Steam
The instant steam function enables steam to be produced within 30 seconds.
Step 1
Press the POWER button at any time to stop the STEAMER, KEEP WARM or PRESET TIMER functions.
Step 2
Allow steamer a few seconds to stop producing steam, then dismantle the steamer baskets to remove the cooked food, taking care as lid, steamer baskets, rice/sauce cooking bowl, steam and water condensation will be very hot. Allow the steamer base and drip tray to cool before dismantling and discarding liquid.
ALWAYS TAKE CARE WHEN LIFTING THE
LID, STEAMER BASKETS AND RICE/SAUCE COOKING BOWL AND DRIP TRAY AS THE STEAM AND WATER CONDENSATION CAN CAUSE SCALDING. USE DRY OVEN MITTS TO PROTECT HANDS. ALWAYS ALLOW THE STEAMER BASE AND DRIP TRAY TO COOL BEFORE DISMANTLING AND DISCARDING LIQUID.
Step 3
Switch off at the power outlet and unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Allow the Avance® HealthSmart® Steamer to cool before
dismantling and cleaning.
Denser foods or foods that take longer to cook should be placed in the lower steamer basket as this gets a higher concentration of steam. However, foods such as meat or chicken should be placed in the lower steamer basket to avoid juices dripping onto foods below. Place lighter foods, such as leafy vegetables, in the upper steaming basket.
Avoid unnecessary removal of the lid and steamer baskets during cooking, as steam surrounding the food will escape.
DO NOT STEAM LARGER PIECES OF MEAT
OR FISH, ESPECIALLY FOODS WITH HIGH FAT CONTENT AS THIS MAY CAUSE THE DRIP TRAY TO OVERFLOW.

Steamer Baskets
The Avance® HealthSmart® Steamer comes with three steamer baskets that can be stacked on top of each other (See Figure 1), or used with two baskets or with just one basket. (See Figure 2).
FIG.1
=
When using the three steamer baskets at the same time, the smaller basket has symbols (–) marked on handles and must be placed on the bottom. The steamer basket with the symbols marked (=) on the handles is to be placed in the middle and the larger steamer basket with the symbols ( ) marked on the handles is to be placed on the top.
The three steamer baskets have removable bases.
The three steamer baskets can be used as egg cooking trays. The base of each steamer basket has six indents for standing eggs upright for cooking. Eggs should be pierced once through shell before cooking.
Rice/Sauce Cooking Bowl
Use the rice/ sauce cooking bowl to cook rice or sauces by following the steaming charts and recipes provided in this book. The rice/sauce cooking bowl should be inserted into the Fig.3 steaming basket then covered with the lid.
Do not insert the rice/sauce cooking bowl into a lower steamer basket (when stacking two or three steamer baskets) as this partially blocks the effective movement of steam around the steamer baskets.
