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.
