DocumentDocumentELECTRIC EGG FOOD MULTIFUNCTION STEAMER PPE703 This multi-functional steamer can be used to cook various egg dishes, whether it'll be hard boiled eggs, soft boiled eggs, coddled egg, poached eggs, Deviled eggs - all will come out perfectly. And there's very little waiting time since it steams 7 eggs at one time! It is also versatile as it cooks and steams meat, dumplings & buns, corn and other vegetables. In fact, steaming is far better than boiling vegetables as it reduces cooking time while maximising nutrients. It is also safe and hygenic as the flat Heating Plate is made of stainless steel, which is easily washed and gets sterilised every time the appliance is in operation. Another safety feature is that it comes equipped with automatic cut-off to prevent water dry and over-temperature cut-off protection functions. Its cute apperance and sophisticated workmanship will surely catch your eye.

In the process of steaming, some oil and sauces may be added to the food ingredients prior to steaming. DO NOT add a large quantity of liquids other than water into the Water Tank, as the appliance was designed for heating water only. Different liquids have different boiling points, with volatile liquids having boiling points lower than 100C, the boiling point of water. 4. The installation/assembly of the appliance will be made in accordance with the indications of the manufacturer. A wrong procedure may cause damages to persons, animals or objects, for which the manufacturer cannot be considered responsible. 5. Before use, check the integrity of the appliance and power cable.
