Here are some useful tips for your steam oven:

• Always place the pans in the center of the rack.
• Always distribute the food evenly in the pan. If the food is placed unevenly in the pan, it will cook unevenly.
• Do not layer delicate foods too high in the pan or your food may be cooked unevenly. We recommend distributing delicate foods in multiple pans so the food will cook evenly.
