MEAT STEAMING CHART
NOTE
1. Steaming times may vary depending on the cut of meat being used.
2. To ensure meat tastes its best, and to prevent possible illness, check that
meat is completely cooked prior to serving. If it is not, simply place more
water in the inner pot and repeat the cooking process until meat is
adequately cooked.

COOKING RICE (CONT.)
NOTE:
• Chart refers to cups of rice and water
based on the measuring cup provided.
Only use the measuring cup provided with
this rice cooker as it is not a standard cup
size.
• Cooking times are approximate. This table is
for reference only.
• Brown rice will naturally take longer to cook
than white rice due to the extra bran layers
around the grains. This appliance is
equipped with a “Brown Rice” function that
will automatically adjust temperature and
time settings for best absorption of water for
perfect brown rice.
• Wild rice & other rice medleys will take
longer to cook and may require more
water. Please follow package instructions.

Rice/Water Measurement Chart
Helpful Hints:
1. Rinse rice to remove excess bran
and starch. This will help reduce
browning and sticking to the bottom
of the pot.
2. Certain varieties of rice are stickier
than others. If you have experienced
any sticking to the inner pot, try adding
a light coating of vegetable oil or
nonstick cooking spray to the bottom
of the inner pot before adding rice.
3. The chart above is only a general
measuring guide. As there are many
different kinds of rice available (see
“About Rice” on page 15), rice/water
measurement may vary slightly.
