To Cook Soups and Stews:

1. Add ingredients to inner pot and place pot in rice cooker.

2. Press down on the power switch. The “Cook” light will illuminate.

3. Allow soup to cook until ready, stirring often.

4. When soup is finished cooking, lift up the power switch to use the “Keep-

Warm” mode. The “Warm” light will illuminate.

5. Rice cooker will remain in “Keep-Warm” mode until it is unplugged. Be sure

to unplug the unit from the wall outlet when it is not in use.

To Steam Food:

1. When steaming only, add the appropriate amount of water to the inner pot

according to the food to be cooked. Convenient steaming guides have

been provided on

page 8 and 9

for reference.

2. Place food into the steam tray. Smaller foods may be placed in a heat-proof

dish and then placed into the steam tray.

3. Making sure that the outside surface of the inner pot is completely clean and

dry, set the inner pot into the body of the rice cooker then place the steam

tray on to the inner pot. Place the lid over the top and plug the power cord

into a wall outlet.

4. Press down on the power switch. The “Cook” light will illuminate.

5. When steaming is complete, the unit will automatically switch to “Keep-Warm”

mode. We recommend keeping food on “Keep-Warm” mode no longer than

5-10 minutes to avoid over cooking.

6. The rice cooker will remain on “Keep-Warm” mode until it is unplugged. Be

sure to unplug the cord from the wall outlet when not in use.

HELPFUL HINTS:

1. Rinse rice before placing into the inner pot to remove excess bran and

starch. This will help reduce browning and sticking to the bottom of the

pot.

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

adding a light coating of vegetable oil or nonstick spray to the bottom of

the inner pot before adding rice.

3. The chart on

page 7

is only a general measuring guide. As there are many

different kinds of rice available (see “

About Rice”

on

page 12

), rice/water

measurements may vary slightly.
