right cooking time for the various combinations.
Cooking Rice
Notice
Coat the inside of the cooking bowl 7 evenly with
a little grease or vegetable oil to achieve a better
cooking result.
1. Press the unlocking button 0 and open the lid 1.
2. Take out the cooking bowl 7.
3. Measure the desired quantity of rice using the
supplied measuring cup.
As a general rule: A level measuring cup - filled
with rice - yields a portion for one person. Deter-
mine the right quantity of rice and water for you
in a few cooking attempts.
4. Thoroughly wash and sieve the rice. If you do
not wash the rice, this could lead to poor cooking
results and increased foam and steam formation
in the cooking bowl 7.
5. After washing it, pour the rice into the cooking
bowl 7 and smooth it out.
