Using your VitaSteam Deluxe.

Before using your VitaSteam Deluxe for the first time, wash the steaming bowls, rice bowl, lid and drip tray in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Operate the steamer for 15 minutes using a solution of 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 2 cups water in the reservoir.

Note: You may notice a slight odour during this first operation. This is normal with many heating appliances and will not affect the performance of your steamer.

1.Fill the water reservoir above the ‘Lo’ water level and no higher than the ‘Hi’ water level.

Note: Use only clean water in your VitaSteam Deluxe. Do not use wine, stock or other liquids.

2.Put the Removable Drip Tray in place.

Note: Do not operate the Steamer without the Removable Drip Tray.

3.Place food to be steamed without sauce or liquid into the steaming bowls and place on the Power base. If steaming with sauce or liquid, use the rice bowl and place inside one of the steaming bowls.

4.Replace the lid.

5.Insert the plug into a 230-240V power outlet and turn the power on.

6.To set the Timer first turn the dial fully clockwise to 60 minutes, then turn it anti- clockwise to your desired cooking time. This ensures accurate timing. The power on light will illuminate.

7.A bell will sound when the selected time has elapsed and the steamer will automatically switch off. Using oven mitts or a cloth, remove the lid by tilting it away from you to ensure steam is safely released without scalding. Hold the lid over the steamer to allow the condensation to drain into the unit before removing completely. Remove the plug from the power outlet after use.

8.Remove the steamer tray/rice bowl and serve the food.

Note: Use caution when handling the base of the unit and steamer/rice bowls as these will be hot.
