SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

• Brown rice, wild rice and rice mixes vary in their make-up. Some variations may require longer cooking times and/or additional water in order to achieve optimum results. Refer to the individual package instructions for cooking suggestions.

• The measuring cup included adheres to rice industry standards (180mL)

and is not equal to one U.S. cup. The chart above refers to cups of rice/water according to the measuring cup provided.

Cooking times are approximate. This table is for reference only. Possible variations in cooking times may be caused by one or more of the following factors:

• Variations in the type of rice being cooked

• Variations in the amount of rice and/or water in the inner pot

• If you are making a second batch of rice shortly after the first batch, cooking times may be reduced because the heating element will already be warm.

• Opening the lid during the cycle causes a loss of heat and steam. Cooking time may be prolonged if the lid is opened before the rice is finished.
