-
Place larger pieces of food and food that requires a longer steaming time in the bottommost
steaming basket (1).
-
Put eggs on the egg holders to steam eggs conveniently (Fig. 8).
-
To steam large-sized foods (e.g. whole chickens, corn cobs), you can remove the removable
bottoms from the medium steaming basket (2) and the large steaming basket (3) to create one
large basket.
Note: The maximum capacity of the steaming baskets is 1kg.

Put one or more steaming baskets on the drip tray. Place the baskets properly and make
sure they do not wobble (Fig. 9).
-
You do not have to use all 3 steaming baskets.
-
The steaming baskets are numbered from 1 to 3. You find the numbers of the steaming baskets
on their handles. You can stack any larger basket on top of a smaller basket, but the baskets fit
best if you stack them in logical ascending order: the smallest basket (1) first, then the medium
basket (2) and then the large basket (3). Always use the drip tray under the steaming baskets
and only use steaming baskets that are filled with food (Fig. 10).
-
HD9190 only: The soup bowl is intended for preparing soup, other liquid food and fish. When
you want to use the soup bowl, put it in the large steaming basket (3) (Fig. 11).
-
HD9190 only: When you take out the removable bottom from the large steaming basket (3) to
create a larger basket with the medium steaming basket (2) underneath, you can still place the
soup bowl to prepare fish, rice or soup on top (Fig. 12).
-
When you take out the removable bottom from the medium steaming basket (2) to create a
larger basket with the small steaming basket (1) underneath, you can still place the large
steaming basket (3) on top.

Put the lid on the top steaming basket (Fig. 13).
Note: If the lid is not or not correctly placed on the steaming basket, the food does not get steamed
properly.
Using the appliance
The steamer has two steaming modes:
1
Manual mode to quickly activate the steamer.
2
Program mode:
-
Meal program: to prepare a complete meal with different preparation times for each basket.
-
Chef program with preset buttons: to prepare food with predefined preparation times and
temperatures.
See the separate sections below for more information on how to use these modes.
general procedure
The following steps are general steps that apply to all three steaming modes.
1
Put the plug in the wall socket.
The light in the on/off button goes on and the default steaming time (20 minutes) appears on
,
the display (Fig. 14).
2
Choose one of the two steaming modes and follow the required steps (see the sections for
the different steaming modes below).
Note: You cannot use both steaming modes at the same time. Nor is it possible to use the meal program
and chef program at the same time.
Note: If you steam large quantities of food, stir the food halfway through the steaming process with a
kitchen utensil with a long handle. Make sure you wear oven mitts.
