To Steam Food And Cook Rice Simultaneously:

One of the most convenient features of this rice cooker is the ability to both

cook rice and steam food simultaneously, ideal for creating delicious all-in-one

meals.

1. Place the desired amount of rice and appropriate amount of water into the

inner pot. See “

To Cook Rice”

on

page 4

for details.

Do not attempt to cook

more than 5 cups (uncooked) of rice if trying to use the steam tray

simultaneously. The steam tray will not fit properly once rice cooks.

2. Place the inner pot into the unit and begin to cook the rice.

3. Refer to the steaming guides for vegetables (

page 8

) or meat (

page 9

) for

hints and approximate steaming times. It is best to insert the food to be

steamed toward the end of the rice cooking cycle so that your meal is fresh

and warm all at once.

4. Place your choice of vegetables or meat into the steam tray. Open the lid,

using caution as steam escaping will be extremely hot

, and place the steam

tray into the rice cooker.

5. Close the lid and allow the cooker to resume cooking.

6. Once food has been steamed for the appropriate time open the lid.

Use

caution when opening lid as steam escaping will be extremely hot.

Remove

the steam tray and check food to be sure it has been thoroughly cooked.

Exercise caution when removing the steam tray, as it will be hot

.

7. Close the lid of the rice cooker and allow rice to continue to cook until done.

When the rice is ready it will automatically switch to “Keep-Warm” mode.

8. 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

.

NOTE:

It is possible to steam at any point during the rice cooking cycle. However, it

is recommended that you steam during the end of the cycle so that

steamed food does not grow cold or become soggy before the rice is

ready.

CAUTION:

• Open the lid only when necessary.

• If cooking pot is returned to cooker when wet it will damage this product,

causing it to malfunction.
