USING YOUR RICE COOKER

6.After cooking, open the lid and use the rice paddle to stir the rice. This will release excess moisture and give the rice a fluffier texture. Then, close the lid and allow the unit to remain on warm mode for 5-10 minutes. This will ensure optimal rice texture and moisture level.

7.Press the "OFF" button to turn off the rice cooker. If the “OFF” button is not pressed, the rice cooker will remain in “keep warm” mode. It is not recommended to leave rice on “keep warm” mode for more than 12 hours.

NOTE

Brown rice requires a much longer cooking cycle than other rice varieties due to the extra bran layers on the grains. The Brown Rice function on this rice cooker allows extra time and adjusted heat settings in order to cook the rice properly.

To Steam Food:

1. Add the desired amount of water to the inner pot. A convenient steaming guide has been included on page 9 of this manual for reference.

2. Place steam tray inside rice cooker.

3. Place food on steam tray and close the lid.

4. Press Steam button.

5. When steaming is complete, the rice cooker will automatically switch to OFF.

6. Remove food immediately after cooking process has completed. Leaving it in rice cooker may cause food to overcook.

* When using the steam tray, the maximum amount of rice that can be cooked simultaneously is approximately 4 cups(uncooked). This ensures that both the cooked rice and the steam tray will fit properly into the inner pot.

CAUTION:

• Do not open lid when in use.

• If cooking pot is returned to cooker when wet it will damage this product, causing it to malfunction.
