PREPARATION AND USE
Before the first use, wash the parts that will be in contact with food in hot water with a
detergent, rinse thoroughly with clean water, wipe till dry or let it dry. After lapse of the time,
let the pot cool down and then pour the remaining water from the pot. Now the appliance
is ready for use. Leave free space for due ventilation. Vents in the appliance ensure steam
circulation during cooking and they must not be covered or blocked in another way. Make
sure that the power cord is not damaged and that it does not lead through any sharp or hot
surfaces. The electric socket must be easily accessible so that the appliance can be easily
disconnected from power supply if danger appears. Fully insert the end of the power cord
E
into the connection socket of the pressure cooker
A5
and insert the plug into an electric
power socket.
Assembly of the individual parts
Use a suitable fabric or paper towel to clean the top edge of the cooking pot
B
and any
other parts that have got soiled by food while the cooking pot was being filled (e.g. the
outer bottom). Make sure that there are no food remains on the heating plate. After the
cooking pot has been inserted, turn it slightly in both sides so that it fits closely to the
heating plate. Place in the lid
A4
.
Preparation of rice (potatoes)
Insert the cooking pot
B
into case
A
. Keep turning with the cooking pot slightly, until you
make sure that it is positioned (seated) properly on the heating unit. Then place in the lid
A4.
Proceed in reverse order to disassemble/remove (or assemble) all the components.
Preparation of rice (potatoes)
Place the assembled cooker onto a flat, dry surface, and connect the power plug
F
to the
mains. Put washed rice (potatoes) into the cooking pot and add the required amount of
water (e.g.
when preparing 6 measuring cups of dry rice, add water up to level 6 on
the scale inside the pot
). Add salt to the rice, or season it to suit your taste. Assemble
the cooker as per the instructions above.
The outside of the cooking pot B must be
dry at all times!
If this surface is wet or moist, there might be noise while cooking. Move
switch
A8
into position “
I
”. Press the switch
A3
. Indicator light
A1
(COOKING) indicates
cooking. When the rice has been cooked, the appliance switches to the (warming) mode
and indicator light
A2
(WARMING) is switched on. For better results, leave the rice rest for
ca. 15 minutes (rice will cook thoroughly in the steam). Lift off lid
A4
, let the steam escape,
stir the rice (e.g. by the provided ladle). Once the food has been cooked, the pot switches
automatically to the “warming” mode.
Do not keep rice warm for longer than 5 hours
.
The dish might go bad. If you do not wish to keep the rice in the “warming” mode, move
switch
A8
into position “
0
”
and unplug the power cord from the mains.
Recommendations
The capacity of the pot is 8 graduated jars of dry rice. Prior to cooking, rinse the required
amount of rice with clean water.
