Vigtige sikkerhedsforanstaltninger
Ved brug af elektriske apparater skal grundlæggende sikkerhedsforanstaltninger altid følges for at reducere risikoen for brand, elektrisk stød og/eller personskade, herunder følgende:
- Læs alle instruktioner, før du bruger dette apparat.
- Rør ikke ved varme overflader. Brug håndtag eller knopper.
- For at beskytte mod elektrisk stød må ledning, stik eller apparat ikke nedsænkes i vand eller anden væske.
- Tæt opsyn er nødvendigt, når et apparat bruges af eller i nærheden af børn.
- Træk stikket ud af stikkontakten, når det ikke er i brug, og før rengøring. Lad det køle af, før du sætter dele på eller af, og før du rengør apparatet.
- Betjen ikke noget apparat med en beskadiget ledning eller stik, eller efter at apparatet ikke fungerer korrekt eller er blevet beskadiget på nogen måde. Returner apparatet til det nærmeste autoriserede serviceværksted for undersøgelse, reparation eller justering.
- Brug af tilbehør, der ikke er anbefalet af apparatets producent, kan forårsage skader.
- Må ikke bruges udendørs.
- Lad ikke ledningen hænge ud over kanten af bordet eller bordpladen eller røre ved varme overflader.
- Må ikke placeres på eller i nærheden af en varm gas- eller elektrisk brænder eller i en opvarmet ovn.
- Der skal udvises ekstrem forsigtighed ved flytning af et apparat, der indeholder varm olie eller andre varme væsker.
- Sæt altid stikket i apparatet først, og sæt derefter ledningen i stikkontakten. For at afbryde forbindelsen skal du slukke for en vilkårlig knap og derefter tage stikket ud af stikkontakten.
- Brug ikke apparatet til andet end tilsigtet brug.

Betjeningsvejledning
Using your Sunbeam Food Steamer is simple:
- Prepare your food by washing, peeling, and cutting as necessary.

- If cooking rice, place the desired amount of rice and water into the rice bowl, then place the rice bowl into one of the steaming baskets.
- Sørg for, at låget sidder sikkert på plads.

- Turn the control dial/timer to the desired steaming time. The power indicator light will illuminate.
- Steam will begin to generate within minutes.
- When the set time has elapsed, the steamer will automatically shut off and a bell may sound.
- Carefully remove the lid, using oven mitts as steam will be hot.
- Fjern den dampede mad.
- Unplug the steamer from the outlet.
General Steaming Guidelines:
- Cooking times vary based on the type, quantity, and freshness of food.
- Always ensure food is cooked thoroughly before consumption.
- For frozen foods, add extra steaming time.
- You can add herbs and spices to the water reservoir for infused flavors, but ensure they do not block the steam vent.
Vedligeholdelse og rengøring
Regular cleaning will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your steamer:
- Tag altid stikket ud af stikkontakten, og lad damperen køle helt af, inden du rengør den.
- Remove the lid, steaming baskets, rice bowl, and drip tray. Wash these parts in warm, soapy water or place them on the top rack of a dishwasher if they are dishwasher safe (refer to product manual for specific dishwasher compatibility).

- Wipe the interior and exterior of the base unit with a damp klud. Nedsænk ikke basenheden i vand eller andre væsker.
- Tør alle dele grundigt, før de monteres igen eller opbevares.
Afkalkning:
Over time, mineral deposits from water may build up in the water reservoir, affecting performance. Descale your steamer regularly, especially in areas with hard water.
- Fyld vandbeholderen med en blanding af 1 del hvid eddike og 2 dele vand.
- Run the steamer for approximately 20-30 minutes (without food or baskets).
- Tag stikket ud og lad det køle af.
