To Keep Warm:
1. To reheat cooked rice, add rice to the inner pot, plug in power cord, and select the
“Warm/Off” function.
2. To keep rice warm after cooking, allow rice to sit in the rice cooker after process is
complete and the rice cooker will automatically switch to “Warm/Off” function.

1. Pull water holder toward you until you hear a click.
2. Slowly remove water holder by pulling upward.
3. Empty and wash water holder, then dry thoroughly.
4. Replace water holder by pushing down until you hear a click.
Helpful Tips:
1. The “Start” indicator light will illuminate, signaling the start of the cooking process.
2. After cooking is complete, it is best to loosen the rice within 30 minutes to keep rice
from sticking together.
3. After cooking rice or steaming, the “Warm/Off” indicator light will illuminate, and all
other lights will go out, signaling automatic warming is functioning.
4. When using the Porridge/Soup functions, the “Warm/Off” indicator light will flicker and
shutdown will begin automatically.
5. To cook soft porridge, it is recommended to use the “2 Hour” function. For white
porridge, it is recommended to use the “1 Hour” function.
6. After cooking porridge, do not let it sit in rice cooker for any length of time.
7. When ladling out rice, use the spoon accessory included. Never use a metal spoon to
avoid damaging the nonstick surface.
8. When using the “Delay Timer” function, be sure to plan ahead what time you want
your rice to be done. For example, if it is 2:00 p.m. and you want your rice to be done
at 8:00 p.m., set the timer for six hours.
