USING YOUR STEAMER
Place unit on a at, sturdy surface with
adequate clearance (i.e., do not place under
wall cabinets).
The steamer unit and components are not
for use in ovens (microwave, convection or
conventional) or on stovetop.
(Step 1A) Fill water reservoir with clean water
only. Do not put any other liquids or add any
salt, pepper, etc., in the water reservoir. Make
sure the water does not exceed the HI ll level
or go lower than the LO ll level as indicated
inside the water reservoir. Then place the drip
tray on the base. (Step 1B) Or you can ll the
water reservoir from the water inlet. There
are MAX and MIN lines on the water box to
indicate the water level.
Even while food is still cooking, if the water
box shows that the water level is low, you can
add water accordingly to the water inlet without
moving any of the steaming bowls. (Step 2)
NOTE: WATER SHOULD NEVER GO
LOWER THAN LO (MIN) LINE.
To Use Upper or Lower Steaming Bowl:
(Step 3) Place vegetable, seafood or other
foods without sauce or liquid into the steaming
bowl. Arrange food in center of bowl.
Try not to block steam vents. You can use
lower steaming bowl as an egg tray by directly
placing a total of 8 eggs on it.

FOR DOUBLE TIER OR THREE TIER STEAMER
Place the largest piece of food with longest
cooking time in the lower steaming bowl.
Place lower bowl on top of drip tray and
base. Place the upper steaming bowl on
top of the base unit, or you can place upper
steaming bowl directly on top of the lower
steaming bowl.
Cooking times are estimates and depend on
the quantity, size, required degree of cooking
and temperature of food. Consider all the
cooking time given in the following guide as
suggested times for double tier steamer.
When handling and removing hot compo-
nents, use POTHOLDERS to avoid burns
from hot steam.
USING THE RICE BOWL
Place rice or other foods with sauce or liquid
in rice bowl. Place rice bowl in the lower
steaming bowl and cover with the lid. Plug
into wall outlet and set timer. When food is well
cooked, unplug unit.
TIMER SETTING
(Maximum 75 Minutes)
Set the timer to the recommended cooking
time (steaming times can be adjusted as per
your experiment). The light turns on and steam
comes in 35 seconds. The light will turn off
when cooking is completed and the timer will
give a signal bell. RICE BOWL

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 ll with water up to the HI 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. For leftovers, reheating times are based on foods at refrigerator
temperatures.
3. When reheating leftovers in the rice bowl, always spread leftovers
evenly in RICE BOWL and use aluminum foil to cover.
4. Experiment with your own leftovers.
