Our products are engineered to meet the  
highest standards of quality, functionality, and  
design. We hope you thoroughly enjoy your  
new Braun product.  
• Braun electric appliances meet applicable  
safety standards. Repairs or the replacement  
of the mains cord must only be done by  
authorised service personnel. Faulty, unquali-  
fied repair work may cause considerable  
hazards to the user.  
Your Braun MultiGourmet is particularly well  
suited for steaming vegetables, rice, fish, meat  
and poultry. Steaming is a most gentle and  
healthy way of preparing food. Vitamins, min-  
erals, natural taste and colour will be retained  
to a large extent.

Steaming  
7. Check whether the food is cooked. Put on  
long kitchen gloves. Switchs the appliance off.  
Lift the cover 7 being careful of escaping  
steam. Do not touch any hot parts. Check the  
food using a long fork.  
If you want to continue steaming put on the  
cover 7 and switch the appliance on again.  
Model FS 20 when using both steam baskets:  
To check whether the food is cooked in the  
lower steam basket proceed as follows. Switch  
the appliance off and remove the cover 7.  
Carefully lift off the upper steam basket (with  
the black insert) and place it on the reverse  
side of the cover. Then, using kitchen gloves,  
carefully remove the drip pan from the lower  
steam basket and check whether the food is  
cooked.  
1. Fill the base 1 with cold tap water and put  
the steam accelerator 8 in place. Do not add  
any spices, sauces, wine etc. to the water. The  
water quantity needed (maximum or minimum  
water fill line) depends on the selected  
steaming time.  
Steaming in the steam basket 5  
(e.g. vegetables, fish)  
Put the food into the steam basket with  
slots 5. If you want to cook various foods,  
2 dividers E can be inserted into the steam  
basket 5. They prevent different foods  
being mixed. Add spices when steaming is  
finished. Always use the black insert e when  
steaming food with colour (e. g. carrots,  
paprika, tomatoes, etc.), in order to minimize  
permanent colouring of the white steam  
basket 5. The dividers E cannot be used in  
the black insert e.  
If you want to continue steaming in both steam  
baskets, first place the drip pan onto the lower  
steam basket and then put on the upper steam  
basket with the cover. Switch on the appliance  
again.  
Model FS 20: When using both steam bas-  
kets 5 the black insert e or the black rice  
bowl 6 can only be used in the upper steam  
basket.  
8. When the appliance switches itself off and  
the food is sufficiently cooked pull the plug and  
let the appliance cool off slightly. Then remove  
the steam basket, the black rice bowl or the  
black insert together with the steam basket,  
using kitchen gloves. The reserve side of the  
cover 7 serves as stand for the steam basket.  
Remove the food from the steam basket or the  
rice bowl and spice it as desired.  
Steaming in the black rice bowl 6  
(e. g. rice, bakes)  
Put the rice/grains with a liquid if necessary  
into the rice bowl. Place the rice bowl into  
the steam basket. The dividers E cannot be  
used in the black rice bowl.  
Model FS 20: For disassembling see Point 7.  
9. The liquids which have dripped into the drip  
pan 4 can be used for sauces or soup.  
2. Place the filled steam basket onto the drip  
pan 4 in the base 1 and set the cover 7 onto  
the steam basket. Without the cover in place,  
the consumption of electrical power would be  
higher and the steaming time longer.  
10. Before you pour out remaining water  
from the base 1, disassemble or clean the  
appliance, always let it cool off. Pull the plug.  
Model FS 20: When using both steam baskets,  
place the second steam basket with its drip  
pan on the lower steam basket.  
Water quantities  
The water quantity needed depends on the  
steaming time. When steaming up to 18 min-  
utes fill the base up to the minimum water fill  
line 3. When you are steaming longer than  
18 minutes, fill to the maximum water fill line 2.  
Ensure a sufficient water level, especially if the  
steaming time was extended. Should no more  
steam develop, please check the water level.  
To do so, pull the plug and let the appliance  
cool off somewhat. Lift the steam basket and  
the drip pan carefully, and add water.  
3. When using the steamer ensure sufficient  
vertical and horizontal space to other objects  
(shelves etc.).  
4. Plug the cord into a mains socket.  
5. Set the timer 0. To do this first turn the knob  
to 60 minutes and then back to the desired  
steaming time. The pilot light q illuminates and  
steaming begins.  
Notice: All parts are designed for use in the  
Braun MultiGourmet only. Do not put them  
into a conventional oven or a microwave  
oven.  
6. After the selected steaming time is over, the  
appliance switches off automatically and the  
pilot light q goes out.

Steaming in the steam basket 5 and in the black rice bowl 6  
Notice: The quantities and processing times are approximate for steaming in one steam basket  
(e. g. model FS 10). The steaming times listed in the charts also apply when steaming smaller  
quantities. When steaming larger quantities the steaming times may be somewhat longer if there  
is not enough space to permit sufficient steam circulation.  
Tips for steaming with the model FS 20: The steaming times in the upper steam basket are longer.  
Therefore,  
• steam larger pieces or food with longer steaming times in the lower steam basket.  
• When steaming different kinds of food with different steaming times: Steam food with a longer  
steam time in the lower steam basket. After some time place the steam basket containing food  
with a shorter steaming time on top of the lower steam basket for steaming.  
Vegetables and fruits  
• Cut off thick stems from cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage.  
• Steam leafy, green vegeteables for the shortest possible time as they lose colour easily.  
• Frozen vegetables should not be thawed before steaming.

Cleaning  
.
Always pull the plug before you clean the  
appliance. Except the base 1, all parts can be  
cleaned in the dishwasher or by hand with a  
commercially available detergent. The steam  
accelerator 8 can be removed for cleaning.  
Wipe the base 1 with a damp cloth.  
Decalcifying  
After you have used your steamer several  
times (depending on the water hardness in  
your housing area), the heater 9 in the base 1  
is covered by a layer. The appliance should  
now be decalcified. Fill the base with white  
household vinegar (5 %) so that the heating  
element is just covered. Put the steam accele-  
rator 8 in place. Close the appliance, connect  
it to the mains and set the time to 15 minutes.  
Should there still be a layer visible after the  
15 minutes are over, repeat the procedure.  
After the vinegar and the appliance have suffi-  
ciently cooled off empty the base. Rinse the  
base 1 3 to 4 times with warm water.  
Any remaining calcium can be removed from  
the steam accelerator with a brush.  
Subject to change without notice.  
This product conforms to the EMC-Direc-  
tive 89/336/EEC.  
At the end of the product's useful life,  
please dispose of it at appropriate collec-  
tion points provided in your country.
