Empty the water tank after each use by tilting the base backwards and pouring the water
from the back of the base (Fig. 3).
Be careful when you remove the drip tray and empty the water tank, because the water in both
of them may still be hot, even if the other parts of the appliance have cooled down already.
Note: If the water runs out during steaming, the ‘water tank empty’ light and the light ring start flashing
to indicate that you need to refill the water tank (Fig. 19).
Note: If you want to steam more food and need more water, you can add small quantities of water
through the water refill spout to refill the water tank.
Note: The appliance automatically goes into the standby mode if it has not been used for 2 minutes.
Press the start/stop button to activate the control panel again.

light goes on.
The keep-warm mode keeps the food warm for 20 minutes.
- If you want to keep the food warm longer than 20 minutes, turn the timer adjustment knob to
the left or right to adjust the keep-warm time.
- If you want to deactivate the keep-warm mode when it is active, press the start /stop button.
