To use the ““Quick Rice”” function, follow the steps for ““To Cook Rice”” beginning on page 5. Rather than 
pressing one of the standard rice function buttons, press the QUICK RICE button. 
If cooking brown rice, add an additional 1½ cups water, using the provided measuring cup, 
to compensate for the lack of soaking time.

 ••  Cooking times are approximate. Altitude, humidity and outside temperature will affect cooking time. 
••  Opening the lid during the cooking cycle causes a loss of heat and steam. Cooking time may be prolonged if the lid is opened before the rice is 

 nished.

NOTE

The rice produced by ““Quick Rice”” will not be to the same quality as rice made using the ““White Rice”” or ““Brown Rice”” 
settings, but it’’s an excellent option for cooked rice in a pinch.
