INSTRUCTIONS FOR RICE COOKER
1. Make sure appliance is unplugged.
2. Measure raw rice for desired amount with the measuring cup provided,
180 ml. (One cup of the uncooked rice will make about three cups of cooked rice).
Maximum of 7 cups uncooked rice for Model 4718. Maximum of 10 cups uncooked
rice for Model 4719. Add rice to inner pot.
3. You may choose any of the following ways to add water for cooking:
a) By measuring cup, add proper amount of water to the rice inside the inner pot
(for every cup of raw rice, add 1-1/2 cups of water). For stickier rice,
add slightly more water. For fluffier rice, use slightly less water.
b) By waterline, add water to the rice inside the pot up to the proper waterline
(for 4 cups of uncooked rice, add water to line 4).
4. Set the inner pot into the cooker. Make sure that the inner pot sits directly in contact
with the heating plate by turning it slightly from right to left until it is seated properly.
5. Cover with lid. DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE UNCOVERED.
STEAM IS GENERATED DURING USE.
6. Plug the cord into a 120V AC electrical outlet. Switch the Rice Cooker on by pushing
the switch button down. Make sure the power light is on.
7. Mix the rice. After 15 minutes of steaming, carefully open the lid, taking care to
avoid steam. Use the ladle or other long handled utensil to scoop and mix the rice.
After mixing, cover inner pot with lid.
8. When your rice is cooked, the cooker will automatically switch to the warm function
and the "warm" light will turn on. The unit will stay in the warm function until the unit
is disconnected from the wall outlet.
9. Allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning.
10. Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet when not in use.
NOTES
1. Wash the measured rice in separate bowl, if desired.
2. For softer rice, we suggest preparing rice and water in the inner pot
and letting soak for 10-20 minutes before cooking.
INSTRUCTIONS TO REHEAT RICE
1. To reheat cold rice, add 1/4 cup (4 Tbsp.) of cold water per cup of cooked rice,
stir to mix, then press switch to cook.
2. When rice is warmed, the cooker will automatically switch to the warm function.
