NOTE:
• Average cooking time for a full pot white rice is 50-60 minutes. For brown rice,
cooking time is slightly increased. And for smaller portions, the cooking time for
brown or white rice is decreased. For a quicker cooking time, and to bypass
Sensor Logic, use the quick cook directions on the following page.
