Operation
• Plug in the unit, making sure it is located on a flat, level surface and properly grounded.
• Use the included measuring cup to measure out the desired quantity of rice. One cup of rice
is considered a single serving.
• Rinse the rice with water several times and drain the excess away. Failure to do this may
affect the quality of the cooked rice and cause a buildup of steam in the cooker.
• Put the rice into the inner pot.
• Add water until it reaches the corresponding measurement marking on the pot (i.e. for 4 cups
of rice, fill the water up to level 4).
• Make sure that the exterior of the inner pot is dry, and place the inner pot into the rice cooker.
• Cover with lid.
• Switch the unit on, and the “keep warm” function will begin to operate.
• Press the switch again and the “rice cooking” light will turn on, indicating that the rice has
begun to cook.
• When the rice has finished cooking, the unit will automatically switch to the “keep warm”
function.
• Take the lid off and let the rice rest for 10 minutes to complete the cooking process.
• Stir the rice. It is now ready to eat.
• When finished, turn the switch to OFF, and unplug the unit.
Additional Warnings
• For best-tasting rice, consume it within 1 hour of cooking.
• The “keep warm” period should not exceed 2 hours.
• Do not switch the unit back to the cooking setting immediately after cooking a batch of rice.
• Always use heat-resistant gloves when removing the lid or the inner pot from the unit as
steam may cause injury.
• Certain kinds of rice may cause a buildup of steam within the unit. If this happens, simply lift
the lid to allow the steam to escape.
• Do not reheat cooked rice in the rice cooker.
• Do not lift the lid during the “keep warm” period.
• Do not use metal utensils, sharp objects, or abrasive cleaners on the inside of the pot as this
may damage the nonstick coating.
• Keep the unit unplugged when not in use, when filling with water /rice, and when being
cleaned.
• Never submerge the unit in water.
• Do not allow children to operate this appliance.
