TIMER SETTING

COOK TIME

(Maximum 95 Minutes Cooking Time and 12 hour Delay Time)

1.When connected to the power supply, the steamer will beep and display COOK TIME of 5 minutes (:05). Pressing either of the two middle keys

( - or + ) will adjust the COOK TIME up or down between :05 and :95 minutes. (Step 1A)

2.Press the On/Off button to begin cooking immediately for the set time. (Step 1B)

DELAY COOKING

1.Follow step number 1 for COOK TIME.

2.Press the set button (far left button) to display the DELAY TIME set. Pressing either of the two middle keys ( - or + ) will adjust the DELAY TIME up or down between 0:00 and 12:00 hours (Step 2).

3.Press the On/Off button to accept the DELAY TIME set, or the Set button can be pressed to return to the COOK TIME adjustment. Once the On/Off button is pressed, the clock icon will be displayed and the delay time will begin to count down to 0:00. Pressing the On/Off button again will cancel the DELAY TIME. When the timer counts down to and reaches 0:00 the unit will immediately start the cooking cycle.

When the steamer is cooking food, the red light will be displayed indicating timer operation. After the steamer has cooked for the set amount of time, the red light will turn off, and an audible beep will sound for 2 seconds. The steamer will enter a 1-hour Keep-Warm Mode indicated by a green light. During this time the steamer will periodically turn on and off to keep the food warm.

The steamer has a self-protection feature that will cancel the cooking operation and produce an audible alarm for 1 minute along with a continuous blinking red and green light. The display will show Err. This indicates that the steamer is out of water, or too low on water to complete the cooking cycle. Press the On/Off button to cancel the alarm. This will also erase the COOK TIME. Fill the steamer with the proper amount of water, reset the COOK TIME, and Press the On/Off button to start cooking again (Step 3).

After a period of non-use, the timer display will turn off. Press any key to turn the display back on again.

CARE AND CLEANING

•Unplug cord from outlet. Before cleaning, allow steamer to cool.

•Never immerse the Base, Cord or Plug in water.

•Empty the drip tray and the water reservoir. If there is a small amount of water remaining inside the water box, you can just turn the unit upside down and water will come out from the water inlet.

•Wash lid, steaming bowl, rice bowl and drip tray in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry all parts, or wash on top rack of dishwasher.

•Clean reservoir with soapy water then wipe with damp cloth.

•Do not use abrasive cleaners

•The lower steaming bowl and the rice bowl can be stored inside the upper steaming bowl with the lid on top.

•In hard water areas, the scale may build up on the heating element. If scale is allowed to accumulate, the steam could turn off before the food is cooked. So, after 7-10 uses, pour 3 cups clear vinegar into the water reservoir then fill with water up to the MAX level. Do not place lid, steaming bowl, rice bowl and drip tray in this procedure.

•Plug in and set timer to 20 minutes. When the timer rings, unplug cord from outlet. Allow the unit to cool completely before emptying the water reservoir. Use cold water to rinse the water reservoir several times.

REHEATING: BREADS AND LEFTOVERS

1.Do not wrap or cover when reheating breads.

2.When reheating leftovers in the rice bowl, always spread leftovers evenly in RICE BOWL and use aluminum foil to cover.

3.Experiment with your own leftovers.
