The cooking times for the steam basket are provided as a guide - in most cases they are a
EN reliable indicator of cooking times. However, certain factors will impact cooking times; the
size of vegetables (cut or uncut)/quantity of ingredients in the basket/variety and ripeness
of vegetables/amount of water in the bowl, which must correspond to the markings (0.7 l).
Ensure that the steam regulator cap is turned in the "max." direction (a). If the food is not
sufficiently cooked, you can add extra cooking time.

YOUR APPLIANCE HAS 2 OPERATING MODES:
• Automatic program mode:
Speed, cooking temperature and duration are
pre-programmed to make sauces, soups, stews,
steamed dishes, pastry and desserts automatically.
• Manual mode:
You can manually set the speed, cooking
temperature and duration.
YOUR APPLIANCE FEATURES A SAFETY LOCK ON
THE LID
The lid will lock every time the appliance is switched
on. This safety device stops the lid opening while a
recipe is being made (see Fig.16).
Do not try and force the lid when it is locked.
This safety device will unlock when the appliance
stops.
If you have selected a temperature over or equal to
50°C and a speed higher than or equal to 5, a 10
second countdown will appear on the LCD screen on
the control panel. (see Fig.17).
The lid can only be opened at the end of the
countdown.
INSTALLING THE BOWL, ACCESSORIES AND THE
LID ASSEMBLY
• Before using for the first time, wash all items (D,
E, F, G) in warm soapy water, but not the motor
unit (A). Your bowl (D) is fitted with a detachable
spindle (D3) for easier cleaning.
• Ensure that all packaging has been removed before
use, particularly the protection located between
the bowl (D) and the motor unit (A).
• Fit the seal (E4) on the seal holder (E3) (See Fig.
1), clip the assembly to the lid (E2) (See Fig 2).
• Position the seal (D4) on the spindle (D3). Lock
the assembly onto the base of the bowl with the
locking ring (D5) (See Fig. 3). If you use the
cooking mode without a lid, position the gasket
(D4) over the detachable spindle (D3). Use the
locking ring to lock the assembly to the bottom of
the bowl (D5) (see Fig. 3).
• Position the chosen accessory in the bowl:
- the accessories (F1, F2, F3, or F4) fit on the
spindle (See Fig. 4.1),
- the steam basket inside the bowl (F5), (See
Fig. 4.3 ), having taken care beforehand to fill
the bowl (F5) with 0.7l liquid (water,sauce...)
(See Fig. 4.2).
• Place the ingredients into the bowl or steam
basket.
• Position the lid with the arrow on the lid handle
on the left side. Align the triangle on the lid with
the triangle on the bowl handle (See Fig. 5).
Lock the lid by turning anticlockwise (See
Fig. 6).
• Position the steam regulator cap (E1) on the lid;
two positions are possible: high steam (a) or low
steam (b).
• Position the bowl (D) on the motor unit (A) until
you hear a "click" (See Fig. 8).
• The appliance only starts up if the bowl and the lid
are correctly positioned and locked on the motor
unit.
• At the end of the program, start emptying your
bowl by tilting it slightly toward the spout or
using a spoon or ladle. Then, if the mix is still hot,
use a glove or pot holder to remove the accessory
from the bowl and finish pouring the rest of your
mix.
• Knives are sharp tools and are hazardous if used
without caution.
In the event of incorrect positioning or
incorrect locking of either (See Fig. 10.1
and 10.2), the logo starts to flash when
a function is activated.
