NOTE

• When cooking brown or wild rice, add an additional 3/4 cup water.

• The measuring cup included is not an exact cup. Chart refers to cups of

rice/water based on the measuring cup provided.

• This is only a general measuring guide. As there are many different kinds of rice

available (see

About Rice

on page 3), rice/water measurement may vary slightly.

HELPFUL HINTS:

1. Rinse rice to remove excess bran and starch. This will help reduce browning and

sticking to the bottom of the pot, but it may also reduce nutrients in rice.

2. If you have experienced any sticking due to the type of rice you are using, try

adding a light coating of vegetable oil to the bottom of the inner pot before adding

rice.

3. For softer rice, allow rice to soak for 10-20 minutes prior to cooking.

Congratulations on your purchase of the

Electronic Rice Cooker

& Food Steamer. It will surely become one of the most practical appliances

in your kitchen.

Please read all instructions before first use.
