Safety first

Carefully read the safety advice before using your Stöckli «Steamer» for the first time. Store the operating instructions carefully. The manufacturer shall accept no liability for any consequences of improper use.

Caution!

The appliance becomes hot during use - there is a risk of burning!!

Never use an appliance which is damaged or has a damaged mains cable (1). Do not leave it out of sight when operating and do not carry it while it is hot.
- Do not operate the appliance on or in the vicinity of heat-sensitive objects. Do not operate the appliance under a kitchen wall unit and always keep a safe distance to the wall. Use extra vigilance when operating in the presence of children (2).

Children should be supervised and must not be allowed to play with the appliance.

• Switch on the extractor fan or open a window in order to extract the steam when using the appliance (3).
• When the steamer is used for longer time periods, the containers (also in the area around the silicone handles) become hot. Always lift the appliance using the handles and wear oven gloves if necessary (4).
• Avoid the area around the steam outlets. The steam coming out of the holes on the lid is hot. Always wear oven gloves when removing the lid or taking out the containers (4). Never place the strainer inserts on surfaces that are sensitive to heat or humidity.
• Do not place cloths or similar items over the appliance (fire hazard!) (5).
  The appliance must be used with a grounded power supply (230 V / 50 Hz) with a 10A fuse (6).
  Only use power cables with a minimum current rating of 10A (6).
  Always pull on the plug, not the mains cable, when disconnecting the cable.
• Disconnect the mains cable from the power supply and let the appliance cool down before cleaning (7).
• Do not immerse the lower part of the appliance (heating element) in water to clean it. Instead, clean this using a soft sponge and ordinary detergent. Only the strainer inserts are dishwasher-proof (7). Also observe the notes on cleaning on page 41.
  ■ Ensure that the local mains voltage corresponds to that detailed on the appliance type label.
  Position the mains cable and extension cable in a safe manner, so that nobody can trip over them.
• Keep the mains cable away from hot surfaces or objects and naked flames (8). If the mains cable of the appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a customer service agent or a similarly qualified person to prevent hazardous situations.
  If the appliance becomes damaged or defective, immediately disconnect the mains cable and have the appliance checked and repaired by a specialist dealer. Never attempt to repair the appliance yourself (9)! The manufacturer shall accept no liability for any damage or injury caused by non-professional repair.
  ■ Persons (including children), who – based on their physical, sensory or mental abilities or their inexperience or lack of knowledge – are unable to operate the appliance safely, must not operate the appliance without supervision or instruction by a responsible person.

Intended use

Persons who are not familiar with steamer operation and children are not permitted to use the appliance. The Stöckli steamer must only be used for the intended use specified in this instruction manual and for food preparation. The use for any other purposes or technical changes made by the user can cause irreparable damage to the appliance and constitutes a breach of the safety instructions. In these cases, we cannot accept liability and any warranty claims shall be excluded.

Before putting into use

The mains voltage must correspond with that specified on the appliance type label. The appliance must not be used under any circumstances, if the mains cable or plug is faulty. Ensure that the cable (as well as any extension cable used) is positioned in such a way that nobody can trip over it. Keep the power cable away from hot surfaces or objects (cf. «Safety first», page 32-33).

Putting into use

Place the appliance on a level, stable and dry surface.
Only use original appliance parts.
The appliance is only suitable for use in dry rooms and must be protected from rain and splash water.
- Wash the appliance parts with warm water before first use. Do not immerse the appliance in water (danger of short-circuit).
■ Ensure that the local mains supply matches that detailed on the type label of the appliance (230 V).
Always ensure that there is enough liquid in the container (between the minimum and maximum mark), before starting operation. 1 litre is sufficient for approximately 30 minutes of steaming.
We recommend switching on an extractor fan or opening a window to extract the vapour.

Steaming in 5 steps

1. Preparation

Prepare the required ingredients in advance. Cut the vegetables into pieces of equal size. Please note that larger pieces take longer to steam than smaller ones.

2. Adding liquid

Water, stock, bouillon or gravity can be used for steaming. Add the liquid, until it reaches the desired fill level between the min. and max. marks (the maximum of 1 litre evaporates in approx. 60 minutes). If the fill level is low, add hot liquid to avoid slowing the steaming process down.

3. Seasoning

The minerals, vitamins and flavouring agents in food are better preserved with steaming. Seasoning is therefore not necessary. If the food is to take on certain tastes or flavours, stock, bouillon or gravy can be added.

4. Loading the strainers

Firmer or larger pieces with longer steaming times should be placed at the bottom. The strainers should only be filled to three quarters of their capacity at the most, as the steam is unable to rise properly if they are too full. Similarly, steaming times are reduced when the strainers are loaded lightly.

5. Steaming

Add the liquid, place one or both strainer inserts on the appliance, close the lid and switch the unit on by setting the desired steaming time (information on steaming times can be found in the recipe booklet). When the preset steaming time has elapsed, a short buzzer sounds and the steamer is automatically switched off.

Important information

Steaming times

For steaming times, please refer to the relevant chart in the recipe booklet.

Adding more liquid

The cover must not be lifted unnecessarily in order to prevent the liquid evaporating prematurely. As a rule, no liquid must be added, as the steaming time rarely exceeds 60 minutes. Should the liquid evaporate fully during steaming, a buzzer sounds continuously. The heating element is automatically switched off, whilst the timer continues to run. Remove one or both of the strainer inserts and add more liquid.

When steaming is finished

When the steaming time is up, the food can be kept warm at half power for a few minutes. As the food is kept warm for a short time inside the steamer anyway, there is therefore no hurry to open the steamer prematurely.

Ensure that the appliance is switched off before removing the lid. Remove the lid carefully to allow the steam to escape towards the back.

Remove the strainers and place them on a heat- and moisture-proof surface. Place one of the strainers into the upside-down steamer lid to prevent moisture drips.

Care and cleaning

Always disconnect the mains cable before cleaning.
Allow enough time for the appliance and liquid to cool down completely.

Only pour out the remaining liquid in the direction of the arrow; take care not to pour it over the mains cable, the timer or the programming display.

Clean the liquid container with a damp cloth and dry it carefully. Do not submerse the lower part of the appliance in water or put it in the dishwasher. Do not use aggressive, hard or abrasive cleaning agents or objects. If necessary, the case of the lower part of the appliance can be descaled using diluted lemon juice or vinegar.

Storage

The different appliance parts can be stored nested together. Simply place the larger strainer insert on the lower appliance section. Place the smaller strainer insert inside the larger one; the mains cable can be stored inside the upper insert. Switch off the appliance and disconnect the mains cable when not in use. Store the appliance in a clean, dry place, well out of the reach of children. 396

Disposal

• Obsolete appliances may be returned to the retail outlet for free expert disposal.
  Appliances with dangerous defects must be disposed of immediately so that they can no longer be used.
  Appliances must not be disposed of with normal household rubbish (to protect the environment)!
