Our products are engineered to meet the
highest standards of quality, functionality, and
design. We hope you thoroughly enjoy your
new Braun product.
Your Braun MultiGourmet is particularly well
suited for steaming vegetables, rice, fish, meat
and poultry. Steaming is a most gentle and
healthy way of preparing food. Vitamins, min-
erals, natural taste and colour will be retained
to a large extent.
The model Braun MultiGourmet plus FS 20 is
provided with 2 steam baskets 5and 2 drip
pans 4. Thus is has approximately twice the
capacity of the model Braun MultiGourmet FS
10 (except rice).

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,
the consumption of electrical power would be
higher and the steaming time longer.
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 MultiGourmet only. Do not put them
into a conventional oven or a microwave
oven.

Steaming in the steam basket 5
(e.g. vegetables, fish)
Put the food into the steam basket with
slots 5. If you want to cook various foods,
2 dividers Ecan be inserted into the steam
basket 5. They prevent different foods
being mixed. Add spices when steaming is
finished. Always use the black insert ewhen
steaming food with colour (e. g. carrots,
paprika, tomatoes, etc.), in order to minimize
permanent colouring of the white steam
basket 5. The dividers Ecannot be used in
the black insert e.
Model FS 20: When using both steam bas-
kets 5the black insert eor the black rice
bowl 6can only be used in the upper steam
basket.
Steaming in the black rice bowl 6
(e. g. rice, bakes)
Put the rice/grains with a liquid if necessary
into the rice bowl. Place the rice bowl into
the steam basket. The dividers Ecannot be
used in the black rice bowl.

Steaming in the steam basket 5and in the black rice bowl 6
Notice: The quantities and processing times are approximate for steaming in one steam basket
(e. g. model FS 10). The steaming times listed in the charts also apply when steaming smaller
quantities. When steaming larger quantities the steaming times may be somewhat longer if there
is not enough space to permit sufficient steam circulation.
Tips for steaming with the model FS 20: The steaming times in the upper steam basket are longer.
Therefore,
• steam larger pieces or food with longer steaming times in the lower steam basket.
• When steaming different kinds of food with different steaming times: Steam food with a longer
steam time in the lower steam basket. After some time place the steam basket containing food
with a shorter steaming time on top of the lower steam basket for steaming.

Cleaning
Always pull the plug before you clean the
appliance. Except the base 1, all parts can be
cleaned in the dishwasher or by hand with a
commercially available detergent. The steam
accelerator 8can be removed for cleaning.
Wipe the base 1with a damp cloth.
Decalcifying
After you have used your steamer several
times (depending on the water hardness in
your housing area), the heater 9in the base 1
is covered by a layer. The appliance should
now be decalcified. Fill the base with white
household vinegar (5 %) so that the heating
element is just covered. Put the steam accele-
rator 8in place. Close the appliance, connect
it to the mains and set the time to 15 minutes.
Should there still be a layer visible after the
15 minutes are over, repeat the procedure.
After the vinegar and the appliance have suffi-
ciently cooled off empty the base. Rinse the
base 13 to 4 times with warm water.
Any remaining calcium can be removed from
the steam accelerator with a brush.
Subject to change without notice.
