Congratulations on your purchase of the Aroma® 12-Cup Rice Cooker, Slow Cooker and Food Steamer! In no time at all, you’ll be making fantastic, restaurant-quality rice at the touch of a button. Whether long, medium or short grain, this cooker is specially calibrated to prepare a variety of rice, including tough-to-cook whole grain brown rice, to fluffy perfection.

Your new Aroma® rice cooker is also ideal for convenient, one-pot meals for the whole family. Use the Steam function to prepare healthy meals by locking in the natural flavor and nutrients of food without added oil and fat—for meals that are easy as they are nutritious. Or cook delicious and tender homemade roasts, stews and more with the Slow Cook function. It sets from 2 to 10 hours to easily prepare all of your family’s slow-cooked favorites. Aroma’s patent-pending Sauté-Then-Simmer™(STS™) function is ideal for Spanish rice, risottos, pilafs, packaged meal helpers, stir frys and more. It sautés foods at a high heat and automatically switch over to its simmer mode once liquid is added. The Cake function lets you whip up cakes and other sweet desserts with ease, eliminating the need to closely monitor “baking” so you have more time. Once your rice cooker is finished cooking your desired meal or dessert, it will automatically switch to its Keep-Warm setting, so there’s no need to worry about over-cooking.

This manual contains instructions for using your rice cooker and its convenient pre-programmed digital settings, as well as all of the accessories included. There are also helpful measurement charts for cooking rice and steaming. Several delicious recipes are included at the back of this manual, and even more are available online at www.AromaCo.com.
