Guide to Instant Steam Function.
The VitaSteam Deluxe features an Instant Steam Function that will enable steam to be generated in as little as 30 seconds. For this feature to operate you must place the Instant Steam Sleeve in position.
Instant
Steam Sleeve
Cutout
The Sleeve concentrates a small amount of water around the Exposed Heating Element, quickly bringing it to boiling temperature to produce steam, rather than heating all of the water in the reservoir.
The Sleeve has a small cut out in the bottom to allow water to flow into the contained water area. When the Sleeve is in position the cut out must be located at the bottom to allow the water to flow in.
For more efficient steaming we recommend that the appliance is always operated with the Instant Steam Sleeve in position.
Guide to Water Levels.
Your VitaSteam Deluxe relies on the water reservoir being full of water to operate. Fill the water reservoir with clean water only. The water level must be between the ‘LO’ (450 mL) and ‘HI’ (1250mL) markings.
When continuously cooking food with your steamer ensure that the water level does not fall below the ‘LO’ marking (450mL).
Guide to using the Steaming Trays.
The VitaSteam Deluxe comes with two steaming trays - 3 litre and 4 litre. The appliance can operate with either both trays stacked on top of each other or with just one tray in position.
Then place the upper steaming tray on top for cooking of vegetables.
When using two trays at the one time, the smaller tray (3 litre) must be placed on the bottom with the larger tray (4 litre) on the top.
