BEFORE USING YOUR
RICE COOKER
Before using your Oster
®
Rice Cooker for first time, please follow instructions
below:
1. Remove any stickers and packaging materials from product.
2. DO NOT IMMERSE BASE/HOUSING IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure appliance is unplugged.
2. Measure raw rice for desired amount with the measuring cup provided
(180 ml full cup). One cup of uncooked rice will make about two cups of
cooked rice. Add rice to the inner pot. NOTE: Measuring cup provided is
equivalent to 6. oz.
3. Using the measuring cup provided (180 ml full cup) add 1-1/2 cups of cold
water for each cup of raw rice to be cooked. NOTE: You may need to adjust
the quantity of water depending on the kind of rice you are cooking and how
moist you prefer it. For sticker rice, add slightly more water. For fluffier rice,
use slightly less water. If you are cooking brown rice, add more water. You
may also need to adjust the water quantity by adding more water if you are
using the rice cooker at a high altitude.
4. Set the Inner Pot into the Rice Cooker. Make sure that the Inner Pot sits
directly in contact with the heating plate by turning it slightly from right to the
left until it is seated properly.
5. Cover with Lid. DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE UNCOVERED.
STEAM IS GENERATED DURING USE.
6. Plug the Power Cord into an electrical outlet. Activate the Rice Cooker on by
pushing down the On-Switch Button down. Make sure the Cook Light (red)
is on.
7. After 15 minutes mix the rice. Lift and remove the Lid carefully to avoid
scalding and allow water to drip into the Inner Pot. Use the Paddle or
another long handheld utensil to scoop and mix the rice. After mixing, cover
the Inner Pot with the Lid.
8. When your rice is cooked, the Rice Cooker will automatically switch to the
warm function and the Keep Warm Light (yellow) will turn on. The Rice
Cooker will keep the rice warm until the unit is disconnected from the wall
outlet.
9. The Rice Cooker will automatically keep rice warm at 140°F–175°F
(60°C–80°C).
10. Allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning. Disconnect the plug
from the wall outlet when not in use.
NOTES: Wash the rice in a separate bowl, prior to cooking, if desired. For softer
rice, we suggest preparing rice and water in the Inner Pot and letting soak for
10–20 minutes before cooking.
