* The rice cooker will automatically determine the exact cooking time depending on the quantity of water and rice placed in the bowl.

Rice cooking

The rice cooker itself determines the exact cooking time depending on the quantity of water and ingredients placed in the bowl (see cooking table above for a guide to timing). When all of the water has been absorbed by the rice, the appliance stops the cooking process automatically and enters into the “KEEP WARM" mode (the green “KEEP WARM” indicator light comes on).

The cooking time given in the tables above is a rice cooking time guide.

•Place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work surface away from water splashes and any other sources of heat.

•Pour the required quantity of rice into the bowl using the measuring cup provided. Then fill with cold water up to the corresponding “CUP” mark printed in the bowl (See cooking guide above) – Fig.7.

•Close the lid.Note: Always add the rice first otherwise you will have too much water.

•Check that the appliance is plugged in. Turn the mode switch to the left to choose "RICE/STEAM" mode – Fig.8 and then press downwards on the control switch, the orange cooking indicator illuminates showing that cooking has begun – Fig.9.

•When cooking finished, it will turn to keep warm automatically, the "KEEP WARM" indicator light is on – Fig.10.

•After each use empty and clean the condensation collector.
