USING YOUR RICE COOKER

To Steam Food:

1. When steaming only, add the appropriate amount of water to the inner pot according to the food to be cooked. A convenient steaming guide has been provided on page 9 for vegetables and page 10 for meats.

2. Place food into the steam tray. Smaller foods may be placed in a heat-proof dish and then placed into the steam tray.

3. Set the inner pot into the body of the rice cooker, making sure that the exterior is clean and completely dry, then place the steam tray into the inner pot. Close the lid and plug the power cord into a wall outlet.

4. Press the ‘MENU’ button until the arrow points to the ‘STEAM’ setting. Press the ‘START/REHEAT’ button. The display will show ‘:30’ for the maximum amount of minutes the function will run without being manually shut off.

5. When food has steamed for the appropriate time, press the ‘WARM/OFF’ button. When the water in the inner pot has boiled off, the rice cooker will automatically switch to ‘WARM’ mode. Exercise caution when opening the lid and removing the steam tray and wear protective kitchen mitts to avoid burns. The digital display will indicate the number of hours food has warmed.

6. The rice cooker will remain on ‘WARM’ mode until it is unplugged. Always unplug the rice cooker when not in use.
