USAGE

For your child’s safety always check food temperature before feeding.
This unit can steam and blend vegetables, fruits (peeled and cored/pips removed), meats and fish (with bones removed). All food must be diced into approximately 1-2cm  cubes before being placed into the jug or basket for cooking. Cooking times can be found in these instructions and for recipes visit tommeetippee.com. During the steaming  process hot steam passes through the vent at the back of the unit. Position this unit away from walls and make sure it is not underneath any overhanging shelves or cabinets.

  1. Place unit on a flat dry kitchen work surface. Place jug or basket with diced food in unit and lock in place using the locking dial. Steam no more than 200gms in one  cycle.
    Fill water tank with 350ml of cold water and replace the cap.

  2. Plug unit into mains power supply, the unit will beep. Press the power button to turn on the unit. The LCD display will illuminate.

During the automatic steam and blend cycle, the blades will rotate once every 2 minutes to move food around the  container. When cooking meat, it is extremely important to pause the unit every 10 minutes and stir food thoroughly. This is to ensure even cooking.
    3.2 STEAM AND BLEND WITH BASKET: Reduced water for a chunkier texture.

In stage 1 weaning, where food consistency  should be a smooth puree, we recommend that you stir in this nutrient rich water. In later weaning stages, when thicker textures are required, we would recommend  removing some/all of this water depending on your baby’s preference. Steam and blend separately with the addition of the steam basket and there will be no water mixed with the food. Leave the unit to stand for 2 mins before unlocking jug and decanting food into storage. Take care when removing the jug and lid as steam may still be  present and jug hot to touch.

CLEANING & DESCALING
The descaling process will remove deposits of calcium and other minerals in the system that may affect its performance.
CLEANING
Turn off at the power supply, unplug the unit and allow unit to cool down completely before cleaning. Before first use and after every use wash the jug, lid and basket in warm soapy water or use a dishwasher (top shelf only) and dry thoroughly. Wash the blade, sealing ring and locking ring in warm soapy water and dry thoroughly.
PLEASE NOTE THE BLADE, SEALING RING AND LOCKING RING ARE NOT DISHWASHER SAFE.
WARNING! Handle the blade carefully as it is extremely sharp. Care shall be taken when handling the sharp blades, emptying the jug and during cleaning. After every use  wipe the jug housing with a damp cloth but do not submerge in water. Do not clean with abrasive cleaners or allow to come in to contact with solvents or harsh chemicals,  damage could result.
DESCALING
You should descale the water tank of your Baby Food Maker every 4 weeks, however if you notice limescale earlier, descaling may be required sooner. Unplug the unit and  allow to cool before cleaning. After each use allow to cool before pouring away remaining water from the water tank by tipping the unit sideways over a sink. A build up of  limescale can negatively affect the performance of the unit. Living in a hard water area can produce limescale quicker than other areas therefore descaling is required sooner.  Use a descaler that is suitable for use with stainless steel and  use as per the manufacturer’s guidelines. Alternatively you can use white vinegar to descale your unit, please use  as per manufacturer’s guidelines. Once you have descaled then follow instructions under SET UP to perform a final cleaning cycle. You may need to repeat the process if you  find that limescale is still present. DO NOT use metal objects or scourers to clean your unit. DO NOT use bleach to clean the unit. DO NOT use abrasive or anti-bacterial  materials.

TROUBLESHOOTING

  1. Do not use the unit for anything other than the intended use. This unit is not suitable for
    • Cooking rice, noodles and pasta
    • Chopping hard ingredients such as ice cubes and sugar lumps
    • Cooking frozen foods

  2. Do not use before water tank is filled with water, unless using the blend only cycle

  3. During the automatic steam and blend cycle, the blades will turn to circulate the food. The unit is designed to do this and is a normal part of cycle.

  4. Once a steam and blend, steam only or blend only cycle has been set, if the jug has not been assembled correctly and the start button is pressed to start a cycle, a beep will sound.

  5. The unit will not start operating if the lid is not placed on the jug before locking into place, the display will flash and a beep will sound.

  6. Error code E2. If the lid has not been placed on the jug in the correct orientation, the display will flash and show E2 and a beep will sound.

  7. If the jug is loosened or removed from the unit during a cycle, it will automatically stop, a beep will sound and (Error Code) E2 will be displayed. The cycle will be  paused and the unit will return to standby state until the jug is put back and fixed in place, to continue the cycle, press start button.

  8. (Error Code E1) In the unlikely event that the water tank boils dry during steaming the unit will beep and the LCD will display error E1. If this occurs you will need to  re-start the cycle and replace the food. Unplug the unit, allow the unit to stand for 2 minutes before filling the water tank with 350ml of cold water. Re-set cycle following the instructions in the usage section.

  9. Quickly set the timer by holding down the + and – buttons (Pictures 9 and 10).

  10. If you find that your machine is not working as efficiently as it was, we would recommend carrying out the descaling process as there may be a build-up of limescale.

  11. Do not use the Baby Food Maker without food in the jug or steaming basket, except for the sterilising programme. If this happens press the cancel button.

  12. If the unit stops working during operation or after it’s been used for longer cycles, please disconnect the unit from the main power supply and let it cool down for 10  minutes before using it.

STEAMING TIMES
All times are approximate per 200g. Steam no more than 200g in one cycle. The MAX fill line on the jug should not be exceeded when using a blend only cycle. Always check  food has been cooked thoroughly and is at a suitable temperature prior to serving.

VEGETABLES

Potatoes| 15min
Carrots| 15min
Broccoli| 15min
Courgette| 15min
Cauliflower| 15min
Pumpkin| 15min
FRUIT

Apple| 10min
Pear| 10min
Oranges| 10min
Peach| 10min
Plum| 10min
MEAT

Fish| 15min
Chicken| 25min
eal/Beef| 25min

When cooking meat, it is extremely important to use the steaming basket only. Pause cooking every 10 minutes and stir food thoroughly to ensure even cooking.

BLENDING TIMES
The unit can be set to different times to control the texture of the food. These times can be used as a guide to achieve different consistencies for each weaning stage.

STAGE ONE
When introducing first tastes food needs to be pureed. Blend for ~ 2 minutes to get a smooth consistency.
STAGE TWO
Here you can start experimenting with a combination of flavours that are smooth lumpy chunks.
Blend for ~ 20 – 30 seconds.
STAGE THREE
Now they can eat bigger portions with a chunky texture.
Blend for ~ 4-10 seconds.
The water that collects in the jug when using the jug to steam and blend is nutrient rich and can be kept for a smoother consistency.
When preparing food for latter stages our recommendation to is use the separate steam and blend mode with the jug and basket to create a chunkier texture with less water. If your preferred option is to use the automatic steam and blend function with the jug then the water can be discarded to allow for a chunkier texture. (Blend times outlined are approximate).

To help with your weaning journey find more information about the Tommee Tippee Baby Food Maker, and recipes at www.tommeetippee.com.
Department of Health recommends that solid food should not be introduced before 6 months. Although you can start earlier (but not before 4 months) if advised by your health visitor or GP.
