NOTE: Cooking will begin only when the POWER SWITCH is pushed down and the inner pot
is in position in the unit.
POINTS TO REMEMBER
Do not turn on rice cooker when empty of water.
Avoid placing unit under any wall cabinets when operating, as much steam is generated.
Avoid reaching over the unit when it is operating.
Use clean water to fill water reservoir before each use. Do not use wine, broth or other
liquids. Do not add anything to the water.
Cooking times are estimates and depend on the quantity, size, and desired degree of
doneness and temperature of food.
Cooking times may lengthen/shorten according to personal taste.
Use hot pads or oven mitts when removing the lid from the rice cooker. Open the lid
carefully to allow steam to escape safely.
A bit of water may remain in water reservoir after the rice cooker is turned off. This is
normal.
Do not use any parts in microwave or on any cooking/heated surface.
Unplug after cooking and allow the unit to cool before cleaning.

CLEANING
Using damp dishcloth or sponge with soapy water to clean the outside of the appliance.
Never immerse outer pot in water.
Clean inner pot, cover, spatula and steam rack, in hot soapy water; rinse and dry all
parts. Using non-metal cleaning pad or sponge with hot soapy water to clean the non-
stick interior surface of the appliance.
Do not use abrasive powders, hard abrasive scourer or wire wool.
Retighten loose screws. To reduce the risk of burn injury or property damage, check if
handles, knobs or legs of the appliance are loose after every use. Retighten loose
screws with appropriate tool, do not over tighten as which may result in cracking or
stripping of handle, knob & leg.
Special cleaning note: After consistent or long time use, the non-stick surface may
slightly discolor. This is normal if tiny stains occur, which will not affect the performance of
the rice cooker. Dark and widespread staining may also occur resulting from improper
cleaning or overheating. Never use household bleach to clean the non-stick finish as it will
permanently fade it.
HINTS FOR CARE AND USE OF NON-STICK SURFACE
1. Use only nylon plastic or wooden utensils with care to avoid scratching the non-stick
surface. Never cut food on non-stick surface.
2. Remove stubborn stains with a plastic scouring pad and mild dish washing liquid.

3. Removing a mineral film. A spotted white film may form on the non-stick surface. This
is a buildup of minerals from water and is not a defect is the finish. To remove, soak a
soft cloth in lemon juice or vinegar and rub onto the finish. After cleaning wash, rinse
and dry.
