tray, or protective mat onto the counter next to the food steamer.
This will become a useful surface to place steamer bowls when
checking for doneness or removing bowls from the stack.

to refill the steamer base with water during steaming

1. When steaming foods for long periods of time, (more than
approximately 1 hour) it will be necessary to replenish the water in
the steamer base.

WARNING: When cooking foods for more than 1 hour, check the water

level lens. Since the food steamer cannot operate properly when
the water level is too low, you must refill when water reaches
below the MINIMUM marking.

2. Use a spouted vessel and add water through either water fill hole
to refill the steamer base during steaming . Make sure that the

water reaches the MAX line. Add more water as necessary.

3. NOTE: When steaming for extended periods of time, it may be
necessary to remove water from the drip tray. Using protective

oven mitts, remove bowl(s) and lid. Using a heat-resistant long
handled ladle or spoon, remove the majority of the water from the
drip tray, making sure that the water level always remains close to
the MAX line. Replace the bowl(s) with lid and continue cooking.

using the rice cooking bowl to steam rice

Use the rice cooking bowl to prepare light and fluffy rice: cook brown
or white rice, and even wild rice.

1. Add the rice and water amounts listed on the rice steaming chart
to the rice bowl. The amount of water will be less than listed on
the rice package because the steamer will retain moisture.

2. Place the rice cooking bowl into the bottom steamer bowl. Add NO
MORE THAN 1 cup of rice plus the amount of water and other
ingredients suggested on the rice steaming chart. The amount of
water will vary depending on the type of rice or grain.

3. Place the steamer bowl securely onto the steamer base for
cooking, then add the lid.

4. Press the TIME button to set the timer to steam rice for the
amount of time suggested on the rice steaming chart below. Press
the START/OFF button. The indicator light will illuminate and the
unit will begin steaming.

5. Note that if the cooking time is longer than 1 hour, it will be
necessary to replenish the water in the steamer base. Consult the
operating instructions for detailed refilling procedures.

6. When the steaming time is reached, the steamer will turn itself
off. The indicator light will turn off and the steamer will beep as
an alert. The beeping will continue until either the START/OFF
button is pushed or the cord is removed from the outlet. Press the
START/OFF button to stop the beeping.

7. Use protective oven mitts to remove the lid. Always tilt lid away

from your face when removing.

If excess liquid remains in the
rice cooking bowl after rice is done, then use a spoon or ladle to
remove the excess water, a little at a time. Replace the lid and
press the TIME button and set timer to allow the steamer to
continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes. Press the START/OFF
button. The indicator light will illuminate and the unit will begin
steaming. Take care not to let the steamer base or the grains boil

hints for steaming rice

1. There are many types of rice. Follow specific directions for the
variety used.

2. For softer rice, increase the amount of water indicated in the
chart by 1 to 2 tablespoons. For firmer rice, decrease the amount
of water added to the rice cooking bowl by 1 to 2 tablespoons.

3. At the end of the suggested cooking time specified on the chart,
use protective oven mitts to remove the lid. Always tilt lid away
from your face when removing to avoid burns. Be careful not to
allow condensed water to spill into the rice cooking bowl since this
would reduce the quality and flavor of the steamed rice. Stir the
rice in the rice cooking bowl and check its doneness and
consistency.

4. Rice may be seasoned with salt, pepper, or butter after steaming.

hints for best results

1. When placing food into the steamer bowls, make certain not to
block all of the steam holes. This is especially important when
cooking with multiple steamer bowls. There must be adequate air
circulation around the food to ensure even steaming on all levels.

WARNING: DO NOT OVERFILL STEAMING BASKETS AS THIS WILL

IMPAIR THE STEAMING ABILITY OF THE APPLIANCE. ONLY FILL
BASKETS APPROXIMATELY HALF FULL WITH FOOD.

NOTE: When steaming large quantities of food, it may become

necessary to rearrange the food. Use protective oven mitts to
remove the lid. Always tilt lid away from your face when
removing to avoid burns caused from steam. Gently move food;
then replace lid immediately when finished.

2. Experiment with various vegetables and combinations. Using the
recipes and the Cooking Guide supplied in this booklet, you may
experiment and adjust your cooking times to your personal taste.

3. When steaming foods for long periods of time (more than
1 hour) use a cup with a spout filled with water to refill food
steamer when necessary. Consult the operating instructions for
detailed refilling procedures.

steaming fresh vegetables

1. Clean vegetables thoroughly. Cut off stems; peel or chop if
necessary. Smaller pieces steam faster than larger ones.

2. Quantity, quality, freshness and size/uniformity may affect
steaming times. Adjust steaming time as desired.

WARNING: When cooking foods for more than 1 hour, check the

water level lens. At the MAX water level, the steamer will
operate for approximately 60 minutes. At the MIN water level,
the steamer will run approximately 15 minutes. You must refill
when water reaches the MINIMUM marking. Follow the water­filling instructions previously described in this instruction
manual.

descaling

We recommend that you descale your 3 tier steamer after every
7 to 10 uses because mineral deposits can form a coating on the steam
ring, drip tray, heat element, and in the steamer base, causing longer
steaming times and possibly an off flavor in the foods.

1. Fill the steamer base using equal parts of water and vinegar: approx­imately 2 cups water + 2 cups vinegar. Make sure the steam ring is in
place. Add the drip tray.

2. Follow steaming instructions except do not add steamer bowls or lid.

3. Set the timer for 20 to 25 minutes. Unplug steamer when timer
sounds. Wait until the steamer and vinegar solution has cooled down
before attempting to empty the drip tray and steamer base.

4. Rinse steamer base, steam ring and drip tray several times with
fresh, cold water. Hand wash thoroughly to remove all traces
of the vinegar.

5. Wipe exterior with a damp cloth.
