USING THE RICE COOKER
This appliance also has a special rice cooking function. It can be used to serve delicious steamed rice.
1. Put cleaned rice in rice container. Add water to about 5mm above the rice, and leave to soak for around
15 mins
2. Add a cup (hard 3 mark) of water to water reservoir. Attach egg rack
3. Attach the rice container to egg rack and close the lid
4. Insert the plug into the socket and turn on the appliance by pressing ON switch. The appliance will
switch off automatically when all the water has evaporated. You can now serve the rice.
Note: Certain types of rice may need a longer cooking time. Let the appliance cool down for 15 minutes
before using it again.
Tips for using the mini steam cooker
One of the features of this device is that when steaming the volume of water may need to be increased.
Never add more water than the hard 1 mark on the measuring cup.
- When using the steamer with frozen goods, the cooking times may vary depending on the amount of
water that comes out of the food. Also, please note that steaming times may vary depending on the
volume of food in the steamer.
- When the volume of food is small, increase the amount of water 1-2 gradations above the recommended
amount.
- After cooking, first wait for 15 minutes before you begin cooking again.
- If you stop steaming before cooking has finished, turn the power off, and wait for the steam to settle
down before opening the lid.
Be careful, the lid can be very hot.

CLEANING
FIRST UNPLUG THE CORD FROM THE SOCKET! ONLY CLEAN THE APPLIANCE WHEN IT
HAS COOLED DOWN
The outside of the base can be cleaned with a damp cloth (never immerse it in water or other liquid). The
separate parts can also be wiped clean with a damp cloth. If necessary these can also be cleaned in soapy
water. Remove any scale from the hotplate after each use. If the chalky deposits become worse the hot-
plate can be cleaned using a mixture of 50% water and 50% vinegar. When doing this do not put the egg
rack and the lid on the appliance. Plug the appliance in and boil the mixture for a few minutes. Repeat
this a few times. Then clean the hotplate thoroughly with water.
PRINCESS TIPS
- Never immerse the base of the appliance in water or any other liquid.
- Always unplug the appliance before cleaning or if any fault develops.
- Never cover the steam holes in the lid.
- Remember that there will be steam underneath the lid which will escape through the
openings.
- The lid gets very hot during steaming. Do not open the lid until you have finished.
- Make sure the appliance has completely cooled down before moving it.
- Leave the appliance to cool down for 15 minutes before re-using.
- The inside edge and the various parts become very hot. Ensure that children cannot
reach it and be careful yourself.
- Ensure that the appliance is not so close to the edge of a table, working top, etc., that
someone could knock it over. Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge or on the
floor, as someone may become entangled or trip over it.
