5. Place the Lid on and lock by rotating counterclockwise to
the LOCKED position.
6. Using the finger tab,ick the Steam Release Valve to the
“Seal” position.
7. Press the RICE/RISOTTO button and adjust the time and
pressure as needed.
Note: See the Cooking Guide on page 22 to find the
possible time and pressure adjustments.
8. Once you have made the desired adjustments, if any, press
START/STOP.
9. The Multi-Cooker needs to gain pressure before pressure
cooking can begin. When the Multi-Cooker is gaining
pressure, “HEAt” will appear on the Display Screen and
the time will not count down. When pressure has been
reached, “HEAt” will disappear on the Display Screen, and
the time will begin to count down.
10. After the set cooking time as elapsed, the Multi-Cooker will
beep and will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM
setting. The Display Screen will therefore change from the
cook time to a new timer that will count up to 4:00 (4
hours) or until you press the START/STOP button. After
4 hours in the KEEP WARM setting, the Multi-Cooker will
turn off.
TIPS:
1. Do not keep rice in the pot for extended periods of time on
the KEEP WARM setting, as the rice will become dry and
the quality will deteriorate. Use the supplied plastic spoon
to stir and serve the rice. Do not use metal utensils, as these
will scratch the non-stick coating.
2. As rice grains can be delicate, at the end of cooking wait
until the pressure releases naturally. Do not use the Quick
Pressure Release Method (see page 18 for instructions on
the Natural Pressure Release Method).
3. Standard ratio for cooking rice -- 1 cup of uncooked rice :
1.5 cups of water
CAUTION: During cooking, steam will build up in the Multi-
Cooker, so when lifting the Lid use a kitchen glove or mitt to
protect your hand.
It’s easy to switch functions during cooking.
Press the START/STOP button and then select the new
desired cooking function. A new timer will flash on the
Display Screen, and the selected function will also flash.
Select the desired time, pressure, and/or temperature. Press
the START/STOP button and the new function will begin
preheating.
To Change the Cooking Time:
You can change the cooking time before cooking begins by
pressing the + and - buttons before pressing START/STOP.
Press and release to change slowly. Press and hold to change
time quickly. If you pass the desired temperature or time,
press the opposite button.

before cooking begins by pressing the PRESSURE ADJUST
button before pressing START/STOP.

You can change the temperature on certain functions
before cooking begins by pressing the TEMP ADJUST
