5. Operating Instructions

5.1 One-Step Steaming & Blending

This function allows you to steam and blend ingredients automatically without transferring them.

1. Chop ingredients (vegetables, fruits, fish, or meat) into small pieces and place them into the blending cup.
2. Ensure the water reservoir is filled to the appropriate level for steaming.
3. Press the Function button on the touch screen to cycle through the preset food types: Veggie, Fish, Fruit, or Meat. The display will show the recommended steaming time (e.g., 15 minutes for fruits/vegetables, 20-30 minutes for fish/meat).
4. You can adjust the time using the + and - buttons if needed.
5. Press the Power button to start the process. The machine will automatically steam the food and then blend it to a smooth puree.

5.2 Blending Only

Use this function for ingredients that are already cooked or do not require steaming.

1. Place your cooked ingredients into the blending cup.
2. Press the Blend button. The machine will start blending.
3. You can manually control the blending duration by pressing the Blend button repeatedly for short pulses, or hold it for continuous blending until desired consistency is achieved.

5.3 Self-Clean Function

The self-clean function simplifies post-use cleanup.

1. After use, add a small amount of clean water to the blending cup.
2. Press the Self-Clean button on the control panel. The machine will run a cleaning cycle.
3. Once the cycle is complete, discard the water and rinse the blending cup and blades thoroughly.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and hygiene of your baby food maker.

• Daily Cleaning: After each use, perform the self-clean function. Then, hand wash the blending cup, lid, and blades with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storing.
• Water Reservoir Cleaning: If you notice staining or limescale buildup in the water tank, it is likely due to mineral deposits from water. This is not rust. To clean, add a solution of water and citric acid (or white vinegar) to the reservoir and run a steaming cycle without food. Afterward, rinse the reservoir thoroughly with clean water. Using pure or distilled water can help prevent limescale buildup.
• Storage: Always ensure the appliance is completely dry before storing. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
