Steaming
1. Fill the base 1with cold tap water and put
the steam accelerator 8in place. Do not add
any spices, sauces, wine etc. to the water. The
water quantity needed (maximum or minimum
water fill line) depends on the selected
steaming time.
2. Place the filled steam basket onto the drip
pan 4in the base 1and set the cover 7onto
the steam basket. Without the cover in place,
both consumption of electrical power and
steaming time increase.
Model FS 20: When using both steam baskets,
place the second steam basket with its drip
pan on the lower steam basket.
3. When using the steamer ensure sufficient
vertical and horizontal space to other objects
(shelves etc.).
4. Plug the cord into a mains socket.
5. Set the timer 0. To do this first turn the knob
to 60 minutes and then back to the desired
steaming time. The pilot light qilluminates and
steaming begins.
6. After the selected steaming time is over, the
appliance switches off automatically and the
pilot light qgoes out.
7. Check whether the food is cooked. Put on
long kitchen gloves. Switchs the appliance off.
Lift the cover 7being careful of escaping
steam. Do not touch any hot parts. Check the
food using a long fork.
If you want to continue steaming put on the
cover 7and switch the appliance on again.
Model FS 20 when using both steam baskets:
To check whether the food is cooked in the
lower steam basket proceed as follows. Switch
the appliance off and remove the cover 7.
Carefully lift off the upper steam basket (with
the black insert) and place it on the reverse
side of the cover. Then, using kitchen gloves,
carefully remove the drip pan from the lower
steam basket and check whether the food is
cooked.
If you want to continue steaming in both steam
baskets, first place the drip pan onto the lower
steam basket and then put on the upper steam
basket with the cover. Switch on the appliance
again.
8. When the appliance switches itself off and
the food is sufficiently cooked pull the plug and
let the appliance cool off slightly. Then remove
the steam basket, the black rice bowl or the
black insert together with the steam basket,
using kitchen gloves. The reserve side of the
cover 7serves as stand for the steam basket.
Remove the food from the steam basket or the
rice bowl and spice it as desired.
Model FS 20: For disassembling see Point 7.
9. The liquids which have dripped into the drip
pan 4can be used for sauces or soup.
10. Before you pour out remaining water
from the base 1, disassemble or clean the
appliance, always let it cool off. Pull the plug.
Water quantities
The water quantity needed depends on the
steaming time. When steaming up to 18 min-
utes fill the base up to the minimum water fill
line 3. When you are steaming longer than
18 minutes, fill to the maximum water fill line 2.
Ensure a sufficient water level, especially if the
steaming time was extended. Should no more
steam develop, please check the water level.
To do so, pull the plug and let the appliance
cool off somewhat. Lift the steam basket and
the drip pan carefully, and add water.
Notice: All parts are designed for use in the
Braun Multiquick only. Do not put them into
a conventional oven or a microwave oven.
