We recommend running one steaming cycle with an empty jar before using
the appliance for the first time. Refer to chapters “Filling the water tank” and
“Steaming”.
Using the appliance
Caution
• Always check the temperature of the cooked food on the back of your hand to
make sure it is safe for your baby.
This appliance is intended for steaming fresh, solid ingredients and blending them
to the consistency of your choice. Please refer to the enclosed recipe booklet for
some tasty and nutritious recipe ideas. The appliance can also be used for just
steaming or blending only. For blending only, refer to the chapter “Blending without
steaming”.
This appliance can also be used to defrost or reheat cooked food that has been
stored in the specially designed storage pots. Always use these storage pots to
defrost or reheat blended foods. Defrosting or reheating without the storage pots
will cause the food to drop through the sieve into the jar lid.
Never put the jar with blended food inside in the steaming position on the main
unit.
Never steam the same batch of raw ingredients for longer than 30 minutes or more
than once.
This appliance is NOT intended for the following purposes.
- Steaming frozen raw ingredients
- Steaming previously blended food without the storage pot
- Steaming the same ingredients for more than 30 minutes
- Cooking rice and pasta
- Blending first, then steaming
- Heating or reheating liquids such as soup, sauces or water
- Keeping food warm for several hours
- Cutting hard ingredients such as ice cubes and sugar cubes, or sticky
ingredients like cheese
Filling the water tank
Note
• Make sure that the water in the tank does not exceed the MAX water level
marking on the side of the water tank (250 ml) or the MAX water level
indication in the water tank.
• We recommend using soft or purified water, as the minerals in mineral or tap
water cause limescale buildup to occur more quickly inside the water tank.
• Except for materials needed for descaling, never put any liquids other than
water in the water tank.
