Care Instructions for Two-Layer Steamer Pot:

Initial Wash: Before first use, wash the steamer pot and its components (including the lids and trays) with mild dish soap and warm water. Rinse thoroughly to remove any manufacturing residues.

Usage Guidelines:

Water Level: Always ensure there is an adequate amount of water in the bottom layer of the steamer pot while cooking. The pot should never be allowed to boil dry, as this can damage the pot and affect cooking performance.

Layering: Place the food to be steamed in the upper layer tray. Do not overfill the trays, as it can hinder the steaming process. Follow the recipe guidelines for appropriate food quantities.

Heat Source: Use the steamer pot on appropriate heat sources such as gas stoves, electric stoves, or induction cooktops. Avoid subjecting the pot to sudden temperature changes, as this can cause thermal shock and damage the pot.

Cleaning and Maintenance:

Hand Wash: Always hand wash the steamer pot and its components with mild dish soap and warm water after each use. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads, as they can scratch the surfaces.

Stains and Odors: If stubborn stains or odors persist, you can soak the pot and trays in a solution of baking soda and water for a few hours before washing.

Drying: Thoroughly dry all components before storing to prevent moisture-related issues. You can air dry the pot and trays or use a clean, dry cloth.

Storage: Store the steamer pot and its components in a cool, dry place. Avoid stacking heavy objects on top of the pot or trays to prevent deformation.

Avoid Sharp Objects: When handling the steamer pot, be cautious not to use sharp utensils or metal tongs that could scratch or damage the surfaces.

Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect the handles, lids, and trays for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any issues, discontinue use and contact the manufacturer for advice.

Avoid Submerging Electrical Parts: If your steamer pot has any electrical components, such as a built-in timer, avoid submerging these parts in water. Wipe them clean with a damp cloth if necessary.

By following these care instructions, you can ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your two-layer steamer pot. If you have any specific questions or concerns, don't hesitate to consult the manufacturer's guidelines as well.
