any spices, sauces, wine etc. to the water. The water fill line) depends on the selected

steaming time.

2. Place the filled steam basket onto the drip pan in the base and set the cover onto the

steam basket. Without the cover in place, the consumption of electrical power would

be higher and the steaming time longer. When using both steam baskets, place the

second steam basket with its drip pan on the lower steam basket.

3. When using the steamer ensure sufficient vertical and horizontal space to other

objects (shelves etc.)

4. Plug the cord into a mains socket.

5. Set the timer. To do this first turn the knob to 60 minutes and then back to the desired

steaming time. The pilot light illuminates and steaming begins.

6. After the selected steaming time is over, the appliance switches off automatically and

the pilot light goes out.

off. Lift the cover being careful of escaping steam. Do not touch any hot parts. Check

the food using a long fork.

Water quantities

The water quantity needed depends on the steaming time. When steaming up to 18

minutes fill the base up to the minimum water fill line. When you are steaming longer than

18 minutes, fill to the maximum water fill line. Ensure a sufficient water level, especially

if the steaming time was extended. Should no more steam develop, please check the water

level. To do so, pull the plug and let the appliance cool off somewhat. Lift the steam

basket and the drip pan carefully then add water.

Steaming in the steam basket

Notice: the quantities and processing times are approximates for steaming in one steam

basket.

The steaming times listed in the charts also apply when steaming smaller quantities. When

steaming larger quantities the steaming times may be somewhat longer if there is not

enough space to permit sufficient steam circulation.

Tips for steaming with the model. The steaming times in the upper steam basket are

longer.

Therefore

Steam larger pieces or food with longer steaming times in the lower steam basket.

When steaming different kinds of food with different steaming times: steam food

with a longer steaming time in the lower steam basket. After some time place the

steam basket containing food with s shorter steaming time on top of the lower steam

basket for steaming.

Cleaning

Always pull the plug before you clean the appliance. Except the base, all parts can be

cleaned in the dishwater or by hand with a commercially available detergent. The steam

accelerator can be removed for cleaning. Wipe the base with a damp cloth.

Decalcifying

After you have used your steamer several times (depending on the water hardness in your

housing area). The heater in the base is covered by a layer. The appliance should now be

decalcified. Fill the base with white household vinegar (5%) so that the heating element is

just covered. Put steam accelerator in place. Close the appliance, connect it to 15 minutes.

Should there still be a layer visible after the 15 minutes are over, repeat the procedure.

After the vinegar and the appliance have sufficiently cooled off empty the base, rinse the

base 3 to 4 times with warm water.

Any remaining calcium can be removed from the steam accelerator with a brush.
