Press the START button to begin cooking the rice. The digital display will show a “chasing” pattern and the indicator light will become solid to indicate that it is cooking.

The rice cooker will countdown the final minutes of cook time (12 minutes for White and 25 minutes for Brown).

Once rice is finished, the rice cooker will beep and automatically switch to Keep-Warm. The digital display will show the number of hours the rice cooker has been on Keep-Warm, beginning with “0.”

For best results, stir the rice with the serving spatula to distribute any remaining moisture.

•Before placing the inner cooking pot into the rice cooker, check that the cooking pot is dry and free of debris. Adding the inner cooking pot

when wet may damage the rice cooker.

NOTE • Brown rice requires a longer cooking cycle than white rice due to the extra bran layers on the grain. If it appears the rice cooker is not immediately cooking this is due to the a low-heat soak cycle that precedes cooking to produce fluffier grains.

When finished serving, turn the rice cooker off by pressing the POWER/ KEEP WARM button once to change it from its Keep Warm setting and then press and hold again until the rice cooker powers off.
