1 Fit the strainer inside the water tank.
(It stops bits getting into the
element.)
2 Pour cold water into the tank.
Always make sure the water is
between the ‘Min’ and ‘Max’ levels
marked. (When filled to ‘Max’, this
will produce steam for approximately
45-50 minutes.)

Filtered water is best as it reduces
limescale prolonging the life and
efficiency of your steamer (Kenwood
water filters are widely available).
Don't add anything (even salt or
pepper) to the water – it could
damage the heating element.
To avoid the water level dropping
below ‘Min’, you can top up during
cooking. Simply add water via the
exterior fill funnel, taking care not to
overfill.
Smaller amounts cook faster than
larger amounts.
Similar-sized pieces of food cook
evenly.
Like a conventional oven, you can
add food as you go along. If
something needs less time, add it
later.
If you lift the lid, steam will escape
and cooking will take longer.
Food will keep cooking when your
steamer switches off, so remove it
immediately.

The cooking times on pages 5 - 6
are guides based on using the lower
basket. The higher the food is, the
slower it cooks. So allow an extra
5 - 10 minutes for food in the next
basket above. Check that food is
thoroughly cooked before eating.
If your food's not cooked enough,
reset the time. You may need to top
up with water.
using the rice bowl
Put water and rice in the rice bowl.
G
Put the rice bowl into a basket. (You
can also cook something in the
other basket(s) if required).
4 Stack the baskets on the base,
starting with the lowest numbered
basket at the bottom and the
highest number at the top ᕡ. (The
numbers are marked on the basket
handles).

5 Fit the lid, plug in and set the timer.
The light will come on and steam will
soon appear.
6 When the time is up, a bell will ring,
the light will go out and your steamer
will switch off automatically.
7 Unplug and clean after use.
hints
G
Condensation will drip from the
upper basket into the lower basket.
So make sure the flavours go well
together.
G
Liquid left over in the drip tray is
good for making soup or stock. But
be careful: it will be very hot.
G
You can also use the rice bowl for
cooking anything in liquid (eg
vegetables in sauces or poaching
fish in water).
G
Leave gaps between pieces of food.
And put the thicker pieces nearer the
outside.
G
Stir large amounts half way through
cooking.

descaling
If your steamer goes wrong within
one year from the date you bought
it, we will repair or replace it free of
charge provided:
you have not misused, neglected or
damaged it;
it has not been modified (unless by
Kenwood);
it is not second-hand;
it has not been used commercially;
you have not fitted a plug incorrectly;
and
you supply your receipt to
show when you bought it.
Descale after 7-10 uses, depending
on how hard your water is.
Descaling increases steam power
and helps your steamer last longer.
1 Pour clear vinegar into the tank up
to 'Max'. Don't use a descaler.
2 Fit the drip tray, basket and lid.
3 Plug in and set the timer for 20-25
minutes. Unplug if the vinegar
overflows.
4 Unplug and when the steamer is
cool, pour away the vinegar and
rinse out the tank several times with
water. Wash the drip tray, basket
and lid.
