Warning:

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when

tion tray last.
cleaning
Warning:
►
Before cleaning, always disconnect the
mains plug and wait until the device has
cooled down completely.
►
Do not immerse the base unit of the steamer
in water for cleaning. This might otherwise
cause electric shock or fire.
caution:
►
Do not use wire brushes or other abrasive
objects.

Do not use sharp or abrasive cleaning
agents.
surface of base unit
• Wipe the surface of the base unit only with a
damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth afterwards.

Do not clean these parts in the dishwasher.
►
The clear plastic surfaces could otherwise
tarnish.

Descaling
In hard water areas scale might build up on the
heating element. This might result in the steam
turning off before the food is cooked.
• To avoid that, after 7-10 uses, pour 3 cups of
vinegar in the reservoir and fill up with water till
the "MAX" level.
• Do not place the lid, steam or rice bowls and
collection tray on the steamer.
• Connect the mains plug to a wall socket and
set the time to 30 minutes. After the time has
elapsed, disconnect the plug from the mains.
Let the device cool down completely.
• Only then pour the water from the reservoir.
Rinse the water reservoir several times with
cold water.
storage
Place the steam bowls in reverse order into each
other in order to save space during storage.
