FAQs

Can I use this steamer on an induction cooktop?

Is the steamer dishwasher safe?

Yes, the steamer is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.

What is the warranty period?

The steamer comes with a 15-year guarantee.

How do I prevent food from sticking?

Lightly oil the steamer baskets before adding food, or use parchment paper.

Can I cook different types of food at the same time?

Yes, the three-tier design allows you to cook different foods simultaneously without mixing flavors, by staggering cooking times.

How much water should I use?

Add enough water to the base of the steamer to create steam, usually about 1-2 inches deep. Do not let the water boil dry.

What should I do if the lid gets stuck?

Allow the steamer to cool slightly, and then try gently wiggling the lid while lifting. Avoid forcing it.

How do I clean the glass lid?

Wash the glass lid with warm, soapy water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.

Troubleshooting

Steam escaping from the sides.

Ensure the tiers are properly aligned and that food items are not blocking the seals. Check that the lid is fitted correctly.

Food is undercooked.

Ensure sufficient water is in the base. Check that the heat source is at the correct setting. Increase cooking time if necessary.

Food is overcooked.

Reduce the cooking time. The steamer cooks quickly; monitor food closely, especially the first few times you use it.

Staining on the stainless steel.

Use a stainless steel cleaner and follow the instructions. A paste of baking soda and water can also help.

Handles become too hot to touch.

Use oven mitts or pot holders when handling the steamer during and after cooking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Setup: Unpack the steamer and wash all components with warm, soapy water before the first use. Assemble the tiers, ensuring they fit snugly.
  2. Compatibility: The steamer is compatible with all stovetop heat sources, including gas, electric, and induction cooktops. Ensure the base of the steamer is in full contact with the hob to ensure even heating.
  3. Care: Always allow the steamer to cool down before washing. The steamer is dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to prolong its life. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can scratch the stainless steel surface. Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth to maintain its polished finish.
