TO STORE

Unplug the 3-Tier Steamer from the wall outlet and clean all parts. Be sure all parts are dry before storing; then nest the parts inside each other for easy storage.

1.With the Steamer Basket Inserts removed, nest the FIRST (1) and SECOND (2) Steamer Baskets inside the THIRD (3) Basket. Add the 3 Steamer Basket Inserts and then the Rice Cooking Bowl.

Place the Lid on top to store.

2.Store appliance in its box or in a clean, dry place. Never store it while it is hot, wet or still plugged in.

3.Use the cord storage area located on the bottom of the unit. Never wrap power cord around the appliance.

DESCALING

We recommend that you descale your 3-Tier Steamer after every 7 to 10 uses. Mineral deposits can form a coating on the Steam Ring, Drip Tray, Heating Element, and in the Steamer Base. This can cause longer steaming times and possibly an off flavor in the foods.

1.Follow instructions outlined the Care and Cleaning section of this Owner’s Manual.

2.Make sure the unit is unplugged and completely cool.

3.Add 3 cups of warm water into the Steamer Base. Add 1⁄4 cup white vinegar into the Steamer Base. Then add enough warm water to fill the Steamer Base to the MAX water line.

4.Allow the vinegar/water solution to soak in the Steamer Base for 30 minutes. After this soaking period, scrub as needed with a nylon scrubber. Pour out the vinegar/water solution.

5.Using fresh, cold water, rinse the Steamer Base, Steam Ring and Drip Tray several times. Hand wash thoroughly to remove all traces of the vinegar.

6.Wipe the unit’s exterior with a damp cloth.
