7.Press the one-touch control down and the red cook light will illuminate. Important: Never hold down the control as this will damage the unit.

Note: As the rice is cooking, starchy liquid may sputter out of the steam vent. This is normal.

Caution: During cooking and warming it is normal for steam to escape from the cover vent. To prevent steam burns, keep hands and face away from the vent.

8.When cooking is complete the unit automatically switches to the WARM mode and the amber warm light will illuminate.

Allow rice to stand for approximately 10 minutes before removing the cover to ensure optimum texture and moisture levels.

9.Remove cover, gently fluff rice using paddle provided, and serve.

Caution: Use caution when removing the cover as hot steam will escape and could cause burns.

Note: The rice pot features a premium nonstick finish for stick‑free cooking. To help protect this special surface, use the paddle which was included with your rice cooker. Using metal utensils in the rice pot may damage the nonstick finish.

10.For best results, do not allow rice to remain on the WARM setting for more than 15 minutes. Always unplug the rice cooker when the unit is not in use.
