3) Water gauge A4: displays the current amount of water in the container. The minimum
amount of water will enable creation of steam for about 10 minutes.
The maximum amount of water will enable creation of steam for about
30 minutes.
4) Drip tray A8: prevents condensation of water and food liquids and dripping back to the
container. So the water in the container for steam creation always remains
clean.
5) Cooking bowls B: they are numbered for easier reference. Place bowl 1 as the first one
on the base and place bowl 3 as the last one.
6) Cooking bowl 3: have 5 moulded holes inside for easy positioning of eggs while cooking.
Pierce eggs before cooking.
7) Rice/soup tray C: you can also use for cooking food in liquid (e.g. vegetables in a sauce
or fish in water). Put rice and water inside the bowl (two parts of water
per one part of rice). Put the rice tray into cooking bowl 3.
Assembly of pot for cooking (Fig. 1)
Hold the lid D by the handle D1 and put it aside. Fill in the container with clean drinking
water as needed for cooking the food (the minimum and the maximum amount is marked
on water gauge A4). Put drip tray A8 into steam pot A. Then put the assembled and filled
in cooking bowls onto the steam pot in the respective order (i.e. 1, 2, 3). Now place lid D on
the upper bowl Leave free space for due ventilation. Vents in the appliance ensure steam
circulation during cooking and they must not be covered or blocked in another way. Make
sure that the power cord is not damaged and that it does not lead through any sharp or
hot surfaces. Connect the plug of power cord to power supply. The electric socket must
be easily accessible so that the appliance can be easily disconnected from power supply
if danger appears. Set the time necessary for preparation of food by time switch A2.
When control light A3 is on, it signals that the appliance is in operation. After lapse of the
set time, a sound signal will go off, the control light turns off and the food or the specialty
can be taken out of the bowls. You can terminate the set preparation time at any time by
turning the time switch to the OFF position.
The timer setting
Desired cooking time is adjusted by turning cooking timer A2 clockwise. If you set the timer
in the range of 0-30 min, Turn the timer knob only between positions OFF and 30. Trying to
turn the timer knob by force could cause its failure.
RECOMMENDATIONS
– You can use one, two or all the three cooking bowls for cooking food.
– When using only one steaming bowl, food is steamed for shorter time than in use of 2 or
3 steaming bowls.
– Food in bowl 1 is cooked more quickly than food in bowls 2 and 3 that are located higher.
If you use more than one bowl, cook the food in bowl 2 and 3 for 5 to 10 minutes longer.
– If the time necessary for cooking food in individual bowls is different, start cooking food
with the longer time of cooking in bowl 1 and then add bowl 2 or bowl 3 during cooking
and complete the cooking cycle.
– Food with large volume is made in bowl 1, or place it closer to the bowl wall; on the other
hand, the smallest food is put in bowl 3 and closer to the bowl centre.
