1. Remove all packaging and any labels from the product.
2. Wash the inner bowl, lid, Steamer, measuring cup and spatula in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Use the measuring cup provided to measure the desired quantity of rice.
As a guide one cup of rice is sufficient for one person, but this will vary
according to individual tastes.
Fill the cup with rice levelling the top.
4. Thoroughly wash the rice in several changes of clean water and drain.
Failure to do so may cause poor results and/or a build up of steam within the appliance. Do not wash the rice
in the inner bowl as you may damage it.
5. Transfer the rice to the inner bowl and level the surface of the rice. Add sufficient cold water to the
corresponding level marked on the bowl e.g. to cook 6 cups of rice, place the washed rice into the inner bowl
and then fill with water up to the 6 cup level.
Minimum capacity is 3 cups. Maximum capacity is 7 cups.
You may find that for your own personal taste you need to slightly adjust the amount of water added. For a
softer rice add a little more water, and for a firmer rice a little less water.
6. Transfer the inner bowl to the rice cooker ensuring that there is no rice or any moisture on the outside of the
bowl.
7. Cover with the lid, ensuring that the vent hole in the lid is situated away from the operator.
8. Plug in the appliance and switch on at the power supply. Depress the control lever to the COOK position and
the cook light will glow.
9. Once the rice is cooked, the appliance will automatically switch to the WARM position and the keep warm light
will glow. Leave the appliance on this setting for at least 15 minutes without lifting the lid.
10. Carefully lift the lid and allow any condensation to drip into the rice cooker. Use the spatula provided to fluff up
the rice which is then ready to eat. Replace the lid as quickly as possible. Consume the stirred rice within 1
hour. Small quantities i.e. 3 to 4 cups of rice should be consumed immediately after stirring.
11. If the rice is to be kept for a longer period of time, then it should be left and only stirred prior to consumption.
THE KEEP WARM PERIOD SHOULD NOT EXCEED 2 HOURS. During this time the lid should not be lifted.
12. Should the inner bowl be lifted whilst the cooker is in operation, the appliance will automatically switch to
warm. To re-commence cooking, replace the bowl and reset the control button to cook.
13. After use, switch off at the power point and remove the plug from the power supply.
Do not keep rice warm for longer than two hours.
Do not reheat cooked rice in the rice cooker.
Small quantities of rice (4 or less cups) should be consumed immediately after stirring.
Do not lift the lid during the keep warm period.
We do not recommend the use of the Rice Cooker for cooking packet type savoury rice.
Always use heat resistant gloves to remove the inner bowl and lid from the appliance.
If ingredients are to be added to cooked rice, they must be thoroughly cooked as appropriate, and the rice
should be consumed immediately.
During cooking, certain varieties of rice may cause a build up of steam within the appliance resulting in some
spitting from the vent and under the lid.
On removing the rice from the inner bowl, a small amount of golden coloured rice may be noted on the base of
the bowl. This is normal, allow the bowl to cool, fill with warm soapy water and allow to soak which will loosen
the rice and make cleaning easier.
The rice must be thoroughly washed before using.
Ensure that the area between the rice cooker and inner bowl is always clean and free from any rice particles
etc. This is important to ensure proper contact between the two.
Do not interfere with the automatic switch mechanism by preventing it from switching to the warm cycle. Do
not depress the switch to cook once it has begun the warm cycle.
The use of sharp implements inside the bowl may damage the non-stick coating.
