HOW TO COOK RICE
STEP 1. Measure uncooked rice
Use only the measuring cup supplied with the rice cooker.
The rice measure cup is equivalent to 6 oz. (0.18 L).
* For every cup of uncooked rice, it yields 2 cups of cooked rice on average.
Note: Follow the specifi ed volume of rice (see the specifi cations on
page 29) or the rice may not cook properly. In particular, failure
to observe the maximum volume may cause the rice to boil over
or to cook improperly. (A cup equals approximately 0.18 liters.)
See the specifi cation on Page 9 when you cook “Mixed rice”.
STEP 2. Wash rice by hand
● Rice may be washed in the inner pan or in a separate bowl.
● Wash rice in a short time until water becomes clear. Drain off water
quickly. (Certain brand of rice does not recommend over-rinsing in
order to retain its nutrients.)
● Do not use hot water over 95°F (35°C) to wash rice.
STEP 3. Adjust water level
● Place the inner pan on an even surface.
● Adjust the water level accordingly to the scale marked on the inside
of the inner pan.
● Do not use hot water over 95°F (35°C) to cook.
Note: Cooking white rice with meat and vegetable, use water level
mark [Plain rice].
Tip: Broth may be used to substitute with water.
