Setup

1. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash the steamer basket thoroughly with warm soapy water. Rinse completely and dry.
2. Placement in 8 L Pressure Cooker: For 8 L pressure cookers, place the steamer basket directly into the pressure cooker. The basket will rest on the inner walls of the cooker.

Operating Instructions

1. Add Water: Pour the appropriate amount of water into the pressure cooker. Ensure the water level is below the bottom of the steamer basket to allow for steaming, not boiling, of the food.
2. Place Food: Arrange the food to be steamed evenly within the basket. Avoid overfilling to ensure proper steam circulation.
3. Insert Basket: Carefully place the steamer basket with food into the pressure cooker according to the setup instructions for your cooker's capacity.
4. Close Pressure Cooker: Securely close the lid of your pressure cooker according to its manufacturer's instructions.
5. Steam: Cook the food for the recommended time. Refer to your pressure cooker's manual or recipe for specific steaming durations.
6. Remove Basket: Once cooking is complete and the pressure has been safely released, carefully open the pressure cooker. Use heat-resistant gloves or the basket's handle (if applicable) to lift the hot steamer basket out of the cooker.
