USING YOUR RICE COOKER

Rice Functions:

White Rice Function is the typical method for cooking rice, since white rice is the most common variety. Rice will be cooked until all water is absorbed and all that is left is delicious, fluffy rice.

Brown Rice Function is ideal for tough-to-cook, yet extremely nutritious brown rice. The brown rice is soaked for 20-30 minutes prior to cooking to allow the water to soak through its extra bran layers. The rice then cooks at a lower heat for a longer time, which ensures that it turns out light, moist and tender.

Sushi Rice Function is a shorter cooking cycle which gives the rice a firmer texture. The best variety of rice to use is short grain (see About Rice on page 15). Once cooked, sushi rice needs to be mixed with a rice vinegar mixture which makes it ‘sticky’ enough to hold together a sushi roll.

To Use the Delay Timer:

1.Press “MENU” to select ‘White Rice’, ‘Brown Rice’ or ‘Sushi’. For health and safety reasons, the delay timer will only work with these three functions.

2.Press “DELAY TIMER.” Select the number of hours within which you would like your cooking to finish by pressing the “+” button to add one hour or “-” button to subtract one hour (1 to 15 hours).

3.Press the “START” button.

4.In the last few minutes of the cooking cycle, the digital display will show a countdown to advise you approximately how many minutes are left until the rice will be finished.

5.Rice cooker will automatically switch to keep warm mode when complete. The digital display will indicate the number of hours rice has been warming.

6.Press “WARM/OFF” to turn off the rice cooker after using. Always unplug the unit when not in use.

NOTE

When the delay timer function is not active, the digital display will show two dashes (see illustration below). It does not countdown for any other function.
