NOTES ON USING THE PASTA
|
RICE GOURMET:
1. The stainless steel handles will be HOT during and after operation. Always use protective oven mitts
when removing the lid, steam tray, colander or inner pot from the rice cooker.
2. When using the rice function, always place the lid on the rice cooker so that the steam vent is facing
away from the front of the rice cooker (toward the side farthest from the control panel). This will
prevent steam burns that might otherwise occur when reaching for the lid handle.
3. Foods may not be cooked in the steam tray while pasta or other foods are boiling. The high level of
water needed for boiling will often cause foods in the steam tray to become submerged in water.
Over-boiling and sputtering may also occur.
4. When using the pasta function do not cover with the lid.
5. When using the steam function, it is best to place the steam tray into the colander before inserting
into the inner pot.
6. In order to avoid damage to the nonstick coating, do not let metal utensils, scouring pads or abrasive
cleaners to come into contact with the inner pot.
7. Always use protective oven mitts when removing the lid, colander or steam tray both before and
after cooking.
