Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: place the base on a stable, flat countertop surface near an electrical outlet. Ensure the 1.2L water tank is filled to the required level before starting.
For care, always allow the unit to cool completely before disassembling. The baskets and the removable bowl are dishwasher-safe, which makes post-cooking maintenance simple. Use a damp cloth to wipe the exterior and the base, but never submerge the electronic heating base in water. Periodically check the water tank for mineral buildup, especially in hard water areas, and descale as needed to maintain optimal steam production.
