V. GENERAL MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
Before cleaning the appliance, ensure that it is unplugged and has cooled down. Prior to the first use or in order to remove the odour
after cooking, wipe the bowl and the inner lid of the appliance with vinegar-water solution and steam half a lemon for 15 minutes
using the "STEAM" programme. Use a soft cloth and mild soap to clean. It is recommended to clean the appliance after each use.
Do not use a sponge or tissue with hard or abrasive surface or any chemically aggressive substances to clean the appliance. Do not
immerse or wash it under running water.
Clean the housing when necessary. Clean the inner bowl after each use. The bowl is dishwasher safe. By the end of cleaning wipe the
outer surface of the bowl dry. Clean the inner aluminum lid after each use (not dishwasher safe):
1. Open the main lid. Pull the inner lid up, holding it by two plastic holders located on its lower part, to detach from the main lid.
2. Wipe the surface of the inner lid with a damp cloth. If necessary, wash with warm water and mild soap.
3. Position the aluminum lid into the upper slot, align with the main lid, and push plastic holders until the the lid clicks into place.
Clean the steam release valve after each use:
1. Detach the inner aluminum lid and gently pull the valve, holding it by the ledge, to remove. Rinse the valve under running
water.
2. Let dry and place back into its original position.
Condensate accumulates in the condensation collector, located on the back of the unit.
1. Pull condensation collector toward yourself to remove.
2. Pour out the condensate. Rinse the collector, following the cleaning guidelines provided, and position it back into place.
Compliance with the user manual guidelines minimizes the risk of food particles or liquids accumulating inside the cooking chamber.
However, if the inside of the chamber gets dirty, clean it to prevent improper operation or malfunction of the unit.
Before cleaning the cooking chamber ensure that the multicooker is unplugged and has cooled down thoroughly!
Walls of the cooking chamber, the surface of the heating disc, and the casing of the central thermal sensor (located in the middle of
the heating disc) need to be cleaned with a damp (not wet!) sponge or cloth. Remove any traces of soap or detergent if using any to
prevent extraneous odours during cooking.
If there is a foreign object in the cavity around the central thermal sensor, carefully remove it using tweezers, trying to avoid pressing
on the casing of the sensor. Clean the heating disc with a damp medium-hard sponge or a synthetic brush, if necessary.
When the multicooker is used on a regular basis, the heating disc may partially or completely change colour, which does not indicate
a defect and does not affect the operation of the unit.

VI. COOKING TIPS
Common Cooking Mistakes and Ways of Solving Them
This chapter familiarizes you with the practical tips and solutions to some common problems you may experience when using the
multicooker.
THE DISH IS UNDERCOOKED
Possible causes
The lid of the device was open or was not closed properly, so the
cooking temperature was not high enough
Cooking temperature was not observed because the bowl and
the heating element did not fit tightly
Wrong ingredients or settings were chosen.
General proportions were not observed, the foods were cut into
pieces that are a bit too big.
Wrong time settings.
Chosen recipe is not appropriate for the appliance
Steaming: the amount of water in the bowl is not enough to
provide enough steam density
Too much vegetable oil was added
Frying
Too much liquid inside the bowl
Boilng: the broth boiled away while cooking acidic foods
While proving the dough has reached the inner
lid and covered the steam valve
Baking (dough
failed to bake
through)
Too much dough in the bowl
THE DISH IS OVERCOOKED
Wrong ingredients or time settings, the foods were cut into
pieces that are a bit too small
The dish was in the bowl on the Keep Warm function for too long
after being cooked

Solutions
Try to avoid opening the lid while cooking.
Close the lid until it clicks into place. Make sure that the rubber sealing
ring located on the inner side of the lid is not deformed or damaged in
any way
There should not be any foreign objects between the lid and the housing
of the device, remove if any.
Always make sure that the heating element is clean and fits tightly with
the bowl before cooking

proven recipes only.
Set the time and cooking programme, choose ingredients, proportions,

level while steaming
For regular frying add an amount of vegetable oil just enough to cover
the bottom of the bowl.
Follow recommendations given in the recipe while deep frying
Do not close the lid of the device while frying unless specified in the
recipe. Defrost and let drain the ingredients before frying
