●
Keep your steamer away from walls and overhanging
cupboards: the steam could damage them.
●
Season food after cooking. If seasoning gets into the water, it
could damage the heating element.
●
See the cooking guides on pages 9 - 11.
●
Your steamer is for domestic use only.
1 Fit the strainer inside the water tank. (It stops bits getting into
the steamer.)
2 Pour cold water into the tank up to:
●
'Max' if you're cooking for over 30 minutes; or
●
'Min' if you're cooking for under 30 minutes.
●
Filtered water is best as it reduces limescale (Kenwood water
filters are widely available).
●
Don't add anything (even salt or pepper) to the water – it could
damage the heating element.
●
You can top up the water during cooking if the steam slows
down or stops.
3 Sit the drip tray inside the base.
using one basket

Put the basket on the base. (Don't use the separator ring.)
using more than one basket
●
Stack the baskets on the base, fitting a separator ring between
the baskets.
using the rice bowl
●
Put water and rice in the rice bowl. Put the rice bowl into
a basket. (You can also cook something in the other basket(s)
if you like. If you do, fit a separator ring between the baskets.)
4 Fit the lid, plug in and set the timer. The light will come on and
steam will soon appear.
5 When the time is up, a bell will ring, the light will go out and your
steamer will switch off automatically.
6 Unplug and clean after use.
