Using Your Ezy-Steam Food Steamer

Place the juice collection tray on top of the unit.

Place food inside of the steamer bowls and/or rice/sauce bowl and place on top of the unit and place the lid on top.

Plug the appliance into a 230/240 volt power outlet and switch on.

Turn the timer dial to the desired cooking time - this will activate the steamer and the “power” light will illuminate.Within 30 seconds steam will start to be produced. After cooking time has lapsed the unit will switch off, sounding a bell and the “power” indicator light will turn off.

Caution:Always take care when lifting the steamer bowls and juice collection tray, as the steam and water condensation can cause burns.

Note:The large (3-litre) bowl must be used if you are steaming in only one bowl and the smaller bowl can be added during the steaming process when food needs less steaming time. Heavier foods or foods that take longer to cook should be placed on the lower steamer basket as this gets a higher concentration of steam.

Switch off at the power outlet and then unplug, allow the Kambrook Ezy-Steam to cool down before cleaning.

During cooking avoid unnecessary removing of the lid and steamer baskets, as steam will escape.
