Important Information
READ BEFORE USING YOUR TOASTMASTER ®
AUTOMATIC RICE COOKER FOR THE FIRST TIME.
◆ Read all instructions.
◆ Wash Cooking Pot, Wire Cooking Rack, Glass Lid, Rice Scoop and
Rice Paddle in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry well.
◆ Never immerse Main Housing in water.
◆ Never place liquid in the Main Housing. Place it only in the
Cooking Pot.
◆ Never try to force the Rice Cooking Selector Lever to stay in the
COOK mode after it has moved up to the WARM mode.
◆ Never plug in the Cooker without first placing the Cooking Pot
inside the Main Housing.
◆ Always be sure Cooking Pot contains liquid, or be ready to add oil,
butter, or margarine immediately to the Cooking Pot.
◆ Remember that the Rice Scoop is not a standard measuring cup.
When filled, it measures approximately 3/4 cup.
◆ Never wash any removable parts of the Cooker in the dishwasher.
◆ Save these instructions and refer to them often.
◆ If the outside of the Cooking Pot is wet when placed into the
Cooker, this may cause a cracking noise while the unit heats up.
Also, this may cause damage to the inner working of the appliance,
so always wipe the outside of the Cooking Pot completely dry
before use.
◆ Be careful not to dent the Cooking Pot, especially the bottom of it.
To work properly and produce the best cooking results, the
Cooking Pot must fit snugly on top of the Thermostat.
◆ DO NOT let loose grains of rice or other food particles fall into the
bottom of the Main Housing because they might prevent the
Thermostat from fitting tightly against the bottom of the Cooking
Pot and cause inadequate cooking.
◆ Use the plastic Rice Paddle or a wooden spoon to stir and remove
food from the non-stick Cooking Pot. NEVER use any metal
utensils.
◆ Never use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads because they can
damage the finish of both the Cooking Pot and Main Housing.
