Precautions for using food steamer

1. Prohibit placing the vessel in grill mode.

2. Do not use this device in microwave oven for prolonged heating

or in no-live load mode.

3. High temperature causes thermal deformation. After cooking,

please wear gloves to prevent hot water from overflowing and causing burns.

4. After cooking, there may be slight deformation of the vessel,

which will return to its original state after cooling. Material thermal deformation is a normal phenomenon.

5. After use, please clean the utensils and cavity in a timely

manner to maintain cleanliness and hygiene. Prevent abnormal cooking caused by odor and oil accumulation.

6. After cooking, do not get too close to the oven door when

opening it to avoid being burned by water vapor.11

Generally speaking, the containers which are made of heat-resistant ceramic, glass or plastic are suitable for microwave cooking. Never use the metal containers for microwave cooking and combination cooking as spark is likely to occur. You can take the reference of below table. Material of container

Microwave Grill Combi Notes Heat-resistant ceramic Yes Yes Yes Never use the ceramics which are decorated with metal rim or glazed. Recommend using ceramics, high-temperature resistant glass, and plastic containers19

that can withstand temperatures above 120 °C Heat-resistant plastic Yes No No Can not be used for long time microwave cooking Heat-resistant glass Yes Yes Yes Plastic film Yes No No It should not be used when cooking meat or chops as the over-temperature may do damage to the film

Grill rack No Yes Yes The grill rack can only be used in grill and combination mode.

Metal container No No No It should not be used in microwave oven. Microwave can not penetrate through metal. lacquer No No No Poor heat-resistant. Can not be used for High-temperature cooking

Bamboo wood and paper No No No Poor heat-resistant. Can not be used for High-temperature cooking COOKING TIPS The following factors may affect the cooking result: Food arrangement Place thicker areas towards outside of dish, the thinner part towards the centre and spread it evenly. Do not overlap if possible.20

Cooking time length Start cooking with a short time setting, evaluate it after it times out and extend it according to the actual need. Over cooking may result in smoke and burns. Cooking food evenly Food such as chicken, hamburger or steak should be turned once during cooking. Depending on the type of food, if applicable, stir it from outside to centre of dish once or twice during cooking Allow standing time After cooking times out, leave the food in the oven for an adequate length of time, this allows it to complete its cooking cycle and cooling it down in a gradual manner Whether the food is done Color and hardness of food help to determine if it is done, these include: - Steam coming out from all parts of food, not just the edge - Joints of poultry can be moved easily - Pork or poultry shows no signs of blood - Fish is opaque and can be sliced easily with a fork Browning dish When using a browning dish or self-heating container, always place a heat-resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent damage to the turntable and rotating ring. Microwave safe plastic wrap When cooking food with high fat content, do not allow the plastic wrap come into contact with food as it may melt Microwave safe plastic cookware Some microwave safe plastic cookware might not be suitable for cooking foods with high fat and sugar content. Also, the preheating time specified in the dish instruction manual must not be exceeded21
