1.Place the heating base on a dry, level, heat resistant surface, away from any edge. Note: As food cooks, steam will come out of appliance. To prevent possible damage, do not place steamer directly under cabinets.

2.Add cold water to the desired level or as shown in the cooking chart. Note: Never start the steamer without water or with water below the “MIN” line or above the “MAX” line.

3.Place the drip tray in theheating base. Note: The drip tray must always be used when steaming foods or cooking rice.

4.Place food items in the food baskets or rice bowl. Place the food basket on top of the drip tray making sure the drip tray and food basket are aligned properly. If you are using multiple food baskets, lay a separator ring on top of the bottom food basket and snap the second food basket in place. Make sure the separator ring is completely snapped on to the upper basket and all baskets line up properly. If using the second and third baskets repeat this procedure. If you are using the rice bowl, place the rice bowl inside any of the food baskets being used. Always place the cover on the top basket being used.

5.Plug the cord into a 120 volt, AC electric outlet only. The appliance will beep and display a cooking time of 10 minutes and the display will read “OFF.” Note: If the steamer is left idle for 5 minutes or more, the digital display will turn off. Press any button on the steamer to reactivate the display.

Pressing the “STEAM TIME” buttons will adjust the steaming time up or down between 00 and 90 minutes. Note: Hold either button down to scroll quickly. See the steaming chart for approximate cooking times.

6.When the timer is at the desired steaming time, press the “START/STOP” button to begin steaming. The “STEAM” icon will appear in the display to indicate steaming has begun. To cancel steaming, press the “START/STOP” button again.
