COOKING RICE

1. Using the measuring cup provided, measure and add rice to the Inner Pot.

NOTE: Rinse your rice in the inner pot until the water is clear. For softer rice, let it

soak in water for 10-20 minutes.

2. Add water to the inner pot. Use the water level markings inside of the inner pot as

guides. Refer to rice/water measurement chart on page 5. If you are making brown

rice, follow the special instructions for brown rice located below the rice/water

measurement chart on page 6 of this manual.

3. Making sure that the Inner Pot is clean, dry and free of debris, set the Inner Pot in

the Rice Cooker.

* To avoid loss of steam and longer cooking times, do not open the lid at any point

during the cooking process.

4. Place lid onto pot and plug the Rice Cooker into the electrical outlet. The Rice

Cooker will immediately enter Keep Warm and the WARM indicator light will

illuminate.

5. Push the switch down to the “COOK” position to begin cooking your rice. The Cook

Indicator Light will illuminate.

It is important that the outside surface of the inner pot is completely clean and dry

before it is placed into the rice cooker. Water, food, or other substances on the pot

will come into contact with the heating element and may cause damage to the

product.
