Steaming
1 Measure 3 cups of water with the measuring cup and pour it into the inner pot.
The amount of water varies based on to the quantity of food to be steamed.
It takes approx. 8 minutes for 3 cups of water to come to the boil.
Make sure that the inner pot is in proper contact with the heating element. To achieve this, turn
the inner pot slightly to the left and right a few times inside the rice cooker.
Make sure that the outside of the inner pot is dry and clean. Also make sure that there is no
foreign residue on the heating element or the magnetic switch.
2 Put the food to be steamed on a plate or in the steam tray.
To ensure even steaming, spread out the food evenly and do not pile it up.
3 Put the steam tray in the inner pot (Fig. 10).
When you cook rice and steam food at the same time, make sure you measure out an amount of
rice that leaves enough room for the steam tray. The steamed food is ready when the rice cooking
process is nished.
