SYSTEM.
POLARIZED PLUG
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this appliance has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This plug will fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. DO
NOT modify the plug in any way.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK
OR INJURY:
1 To protect against electrical shock, do not
submerge the unit or allow the power cord to
come into contact with water or any other liquid.
If the unit falls into liquid, unplug the power cord
from the electrical outlet immediately. DO NOT
reach into the liquid.
2 Please note that the appliance may become hot
during use. DO NOT touch hot surfaces; always
use the handles. Always use oven mitts or pot
holders when removing the pot.
3 DO NOT allow young children to operate the
appliance or use as a toy. Close supervision is
necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children.
4 Remove the power cord from the electrical
outlet when not in use, before assembling
or disassembling parts and before cleaning.
To unplug, grasp the plug and pull from the
electrical outlet. Never pull from the power cord.
Allow the appliance to cool before adding or
removing parts.

9 Always use the appliance on a dry, level surface.
10 Extreme caution must be used when
moving an appliance containing hot oil or
other hot liquids. Always use oven mitts
or pot holders when moving the cooking
system. Allow hot oil to cool prior to
removal or cleaning the appliance.
11 To avoid possible steam damage, place the
cooking system away from walls and cabinets
during use.
12 When using this appliance, provide adequate air
space above and on all sides for air circulation.
On surfaces where heat may cause a problem,
use of an insulated heat pad or trivet is
recommended.
13 Use extreme caution when removing the
lid after cooking. Serious burns can result
from the steam inside. Always lift and tilt
the lid away from you when removing,
using care to ensure that water does not
drip back into the appliance.
14 DO NOT use outdoors or anywhere the cord or
unit housing might come into contact with water
while in use.
15 DO NOT use the appliance for anything other
than its intended use.
16 DO NOT obstruct the steam release vent during
use.
17 Always position the steam vent hole in the back
of the unit away from you.
18 DO NOT place or operate this appliance on or
near any hot surfaces (such as gas or electric
burner, stove or in a heated oven).
19 The use of attachments or accessories not
recommended by the manufacturer may result in
fire, electric shock or personal injury.
20 DO NOT use this appliance for deep frying.
21 CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK, COOK ONLY IN THE
POT PROVIDED OR IN CONTAINERS
RECOMMENDED BY EURO-PRO PLACED ON
THE COOKING RACK IN THE PROVIDED POT.
DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE WITHOUT THE
REMOVABLE COOKING POT INSIDE.
22 To disconnect, turn the Function Dial to “Off”,
then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
23 This appliance has a cut off switch which will not
allow the appliance to heat if the cooking pot is
not inserted into the housing or removed while
cooking.
24 THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED FOR
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. Do not use this
appliance for anything other than its intended
use. Do not use outdoors.
25 To avoid the possibility of the cooking system
accidentally being pulled off the counter top or
tabletop, which could result in damage to the
cooking system or personal injury, do not let the
power cord hang over the edge of the counter or
table.
26 Leaving food out too long at room temperature
can cause bacteria to grow to dangerous levels
that can cause illnesses. In the event of a loss of
power, an error message will display on the unit.
It is recommended to dispose of any food that
has been at room temperature for more than an
hour.
NOTE: This unit has a short power supply cord to
reduce the risk resulting in becoming entangled
in or tripping over a long cord. A longer extension
cord may be used if you are careful in its use.
1 If using a longer extension cord, the electrical
rating of the extension cord should be rated at
least 15 amperes. Extension cords rated for less
amperage may overheat.
2 A longer extension cord must be arranged so that
it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over accidentally.

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.
Oven: Using Steam Infused Cooking
Steam Infused Cooking cooks foods fast and healthy all
by the introduction of steam during the cooking process.
The Steam Roasting technique can be applied to a variety
of meats you would traditionally roast in your oven. Some
cuts of meat benefit from searing BEFORE roasting while
other cuts benefit from searing AFTER roasting, refer to the
recipes in the included Inspiration Guide.
• No preheating is required when searing before roasting.
• Most meats can be seared for less than 10 minutes. You
do not want to cook the meat, simply brown the meat to
add color.
• Add water to the bottom of the cooking pot. In general, 1
cup of water equals 10 minutes of steam time.
• If additional water is required during the cooking
process, cautiously lift the lid away from you and add
room temperature water. Water should NOT exceed the
roasting/steaming rack or touch the food as that will
result in poaching.
Use caution when placing hot meats on roasting/
steaming rack.
CAUTION: DO NOT add any liquids to the base of the
main housing of the appliance.
Steamer:
Steam cooking is easy and fast when you use the STEAMER
function for your favorite vegetables and light entrees. Refer
to the included chart for recommended water and time
settings.
1 Add water to pot according to recipe/chart and cover
with the lid (1-4 cups).
2 Plug the unit into the electrical outlet
3 Turn Function dial to Steamer and set the time according
to recipe/chart. Unit will beep and timer will show “P: ”
while preheating.
4 While the unit preheats, arrange the food onto the
Roasting/Steaming Rack
5 When the water is fully boiling, the unit will beep and the
timer will begin to count down.
6 CAREFULLY open the lid away from you, insert the rack
with the food into the pot with mitts
7 Check food occasionally and remove food promptly when
done to avoid overcooking..
8 When the timer reaches “0:00”, the unit will go into Auto
Warm mode.
NOTE: If water runs out before the timer shows “0:00”,
the unit will pause. If water is added, the unit will begin
to bring it to a boil at which point the timer will continue
where it left off.

Hints & Tips:
1 Cooking times may vary based on the selected temperature, the current temperature of the cooking pot and the
temperature of the ingredients.
2 Always use nonstick utensils in the cooking pot. Metal utensils may damage the non-stick coating.
3 For even browning, make sure that the food is in an even layer on the bottom of the cooking pot or roasting/steaming rack.
4 Cooking time and temperature can be adjusted at any time during the cooking cycle in Slow Cook and Oven. Press the
Time/Oven Temp button and turn the Adjustment Dial to adjust.
5 Cooked foods may not brown or crisp on top as much as in a conventional oven. Instead foods will brown on the bottom
and crisp on the bottom and sides.
6 If you do not manually set a temperature and time, the unit will automatically start at the preset temperature and time.
7 Multiple modes may be required to cook recipes. To change modes during cooking cycles, simply turn the Function Dial to
select the new desired mode. Once the new mode is selected, begin the programming process.
8 If the cooking pot is removed during the cooking cycle and then placed back into the unit, the cooking process will continue
as though it was not interrupted.
9 For best results, remove foods immediately after the cook time is complete to avoid overcooking.
10 Use oven mitts or tongs when removing food. The pot is HOT.
11 For smaller foods that might not sit evenly on the rack, we recommend steaming in a parchment or foil pouch.
NOTE: If using foil, increase cooking time by 50% of what is recommended.
12 When adding heavier foods like corn on the cob to the steaming rack, pleace them on the middle of the rack and work your
way to the edges.
13 When steaming delicate food like dumplings or tamales, it is best to add ingredients before preheating.
14 Always use caution when removing lid. It is best to remove the lid tilting away from you.
