Press the control lever (4) down to start the cooking process.

When the cooking process is finished, the cook light will go out and the keep warm light will come on automatically.

Remove the lid and stir the rice. For the best results, do this just after the keep warm function light comes on. Stirring the rice with the rice spoon (16) allows the steam to escape. This will give fluffier rice.

The rice spoon (16) can be stored on the unit in the spoon holder (17).

During use water droplets will go into the condensation trap (18). This must be emptied after use.

Steaming

The steaming function may only be used in combination with the rice cooking function.

Measure out the required amount of rice (as above) and ensure there is enough room for the steamer tray (14) on the top of the cooking bowl.

Add the food to be steamed into the steamer tray. Ensure the food is spread out evenly to ensure even steaming. Do not pile up the food.

Place the steaming tray into the unit and close the unit's lid.

Continue with the rice cooking process (as described above). Once the rice is cooked the food should be steamed. Remove the lid very carefully and remove the steam tray.

Use a kitchen glove or a cloth as the steam tray (14) will be very hot.

Be aware of the hot steam escaping.

Trying to steam too much food will result in the food not been adequately steamed.
