TO USE QUICK RICE

The rice produced by Quick Rice will not be to the same quality as rice made using the White Rice or Brown Rice settings, but it’s an excellent option for cooked rice in a pinch.

To use the Quick Rice function, follow the steps for “To Cook Rice” beginning on page 5. Rather than pressing one of the standard rice function buttons, press the MENU button to cycle to the Quick Rice function. If cooking brown rice, add an additional 1½ cups water, using the provided measuring cup, to compensate for the lack of soaking time. The included measuring cup is equal to a standard ¾ US cup.

*Cups referrenced are with the included measuring cup. The measuring cup included adheres to rice cooker industry standards and is not equal to a standard U.S. measuring cup. If cooking brown rice, add an additional 1½ cups water, using the provided measuring cup, to compensate for the lack of soaking time. The included measuring cup is equal to a standard ¾ US cup.

Cooking times are approximate. Altitude, humidity and outside temperature will affect cooking time.

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