USING YOUR RICE COOKER

9. The rice cooker will remain in keep warm mode until it is unplugged. Be sure to unplug the cord from the wall outlet when not in use.

* 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.

Helpful Hints

1. Rinse rice before placing it into the inner pot to remove excess bran and starch. This will help reduce browning and sticking to the bottom of the pot.

2. If you have experienced any sticking with the type of rice you are using, try adding a light coating of vegetable oil or nonstick spray to the bottom of the inner pot before adding rice.

3. As there are many different kinds of rice available (see About Rice on page 14), rice/water measurements may vary slightly.

4. For softer rice, allow it to soak for 10-20 minutes prior to cooking.

5. Stir the cooked rice with a the provided rice paddle prior to serving to release any excess water in the rice.

6. Cold rice can be excellent for making fried rice.

To Steam Food:

1. When steaming only, add the appropriate amount of water to the inner pot, according to the food to be cooked. A convenient steaming guide has been provided beginning on page 10 for reference.

2. Place food into the steam tray. Avoid packing food too tightly, as it may prolong cooking time or prevent some food from becoming cooked thoroughly. Smaller foods may be placed in a heat-proof dish and then placed into the steam tray. Larger food should be cut into smaller pieces, when possible.

3. Making sure that the outside surface of the inner pot is completely clean and dry, set the inner pot into the body of the rice cooker then place the steam tray into the inner pot. Close the lid and plug the power cord into a wall outlet.

4. Press the power switch. The “COOK” light will illuminate.

5. When steaming is complete, the unit will automatically switch to keep warm mode. We recommend keeping food on keep warm mode no longer than 5- 10 minutes to avoid over cooking.

6. The rice cooker will remain on keep warm mode until it is unplugged. Be sure to unplug the cord from the wall outlet when not in use.
