2 Pour cold water into the tank.
Always make sure the water is
between the ‘Min’ and ‘Max’ levels
marked. (When filled to ‘Max’, this
will produce steam for approximately
45-50 minutes.)
Filtered water is best as it reduces
limescale prolonging the life and
efficiency of your steamer (Kenwood
water filters are widely available).
Don't add anything (even salt or
pepper) to the water – it could
damage the heating element.
To avoid the water level dropping
below ‘Min’, you can top up during
cooking. Simply add water via the
exterior fill funnel, taking care not to
overfill.
