using your rice cooker
1 Use the measuring cup provided to
measure the desired quantity of rice.
As a guide one cup of rice is
sufficient for one person, but this will
vary according to individual tastes.
Fill the cup with rice levelling the top
.
2 Thoroughly wash the rice in several
changes of clean water and drain.
Failure to do so may cause poor
results and/or a build up of steam
within the appliance. Do not wash
the rice in the inner bowl as you may
damage it.
3Transfer the rice to the inner bowl
and level the surface of the rice. Add
sufficient cold water to the
corresponding level marked on the
bowl e.g. to cook 3 cups of rice,
place the washed rice into the inner
bowl and then fill with water up to
the 3 cup level.
You may find that for your own
personal taste you need to slightly
adjust the amount of water added.
For a softer rice add a little more
water, and for a firmer rice a little
less water.
4Transfer the inner bowl to the rice
cooker ensuring that there is no rice
or any moisture on the outside of the
bowl.
5 Cover with the lid, ensuring that the
vent hole in the lid is situated away
from the operator.
6 Fit the detachable cord to the rice
cooker and then connect the
appliance to the power supply.
Depress the control lever to the
COOK position and the cook light
will glow.
7 Once the rice is cooked, the
appliance will automatically switch to
the WARM position and the keep
warm light will glow. Leave the
appliance on this setting for at least
15 minutes without lifting the lid.
8 Carefully lift the lid and allow any
condensation to drip into the rice
cooker. Use the spatula provided to
fluff up the rice which is then ready
to eat. Replace the lid as quickly as
possible. Consume the stirred rice
within 1 hour.
9 Should the inner bowl be lifted whilst
the cooker is in operation, the
appliance will automatically switch to
WARM. To re-commence cooking,
replace the bowl and reset the
control button to COOK.
10 After use, switch off and remove the
plug from the power supply.
