Operating Precautions
WARNING! To prevent personal injuries, please read and follow all instructions correctly.
•Steam canners and boiling-water canners are not to be used for canning low-acid foods, such as vegetables and meats. Low-acid foods must be processed in a pressure canner.
•Be certain your range or cooktop is rated for home canning. Some models of ranges or cooktops cannot be used for home canning, -especially smooth top ranges– since they can be damaged. Check with the manufacturer of your cooktop before using your canner. Victorio Kitchen Products IS NOT responsible for damage of any kind to the range or cooktop as a result of using this canner.
•Always use heat protective gloves or mitts when handling any part of your canner.
•Any steam produced will be hot and can cause serious injury. Use extreme caution while using your canner.
•When removing the lid from the canner, be sure to always tilt it away from you to avoid steam burns.
•Never leave your canner unattended while it is in use.
•Check the water level in the water pot after every batch. DO NOT LET THE BOTTOM POT BOIL DRY. This will cause serious damage to your canner and may render it unusable. Your stove top could also be damaged if this happens.
•Do not use by or near children.

Product Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of a Victorio Steam Canner! This manual will help you use your canner properly and understand its features. However, this manual is NOT a general guide to home canning. If you do not have a USDA approved home canning guide, visit their website
at nchfp.uga.edu, for more information. You can also visit our website, www.Victorio.info, where you’ll find resources for approved home canning procedures. Don’t forget, you can also check with your local
Extension office for helpful canning advice and your local altitude (see the
Troubleshooting Guide for more information on p. 8)
•Steam & Water Bath Canning Differences: Water bath canning is the process of immersing the jars in water and using the boiling water to raise the temperature of the jars. Steam canning is the process of boiling the water below the jars and using steam to heat the jars. The advantage to steam canning is that it saves time, energy and water. As a result, steam canning is a much quicker and more efficient method.
•Aluminum Jar Rack: The Victorio Canner has an aluminum jar rack.
This rack enables the bottom pot to be filled with water to just above the level of the rack. This provides enough water to finish one batch before the pot needs to be refilled.
