HOW TO COOK RICE
IMPORTANT
: Before each use, make sure that the outside of the Rice Bowl is
clean, dry and free of any grains of rice so that the underside of the Rice Bowl
makes good contact with the Heating Plate inside the Rice Cooker. Also ensure
that the Heating Sensor in the center of the Heating Plate is clean, dry
and cool.
Handle the Rice Bowl carefully. Scratching, denting or bending the Rice Bowl
out of shape may result in unsatisfactory performance.
NOTE:
There are differing opinions about whether rice should be washed
before cooking. Those in favour argue that this washes away the starch
content and ensures non-sticky grains. Those against feel valuable soluble
vitamins and minerals are lost. Drier, fluffier rice is obtained by pre-washing
rice. To pre-wash rice, rinse uncooked rice in Rice Bowl with cold water and
drain thoroughly.
1. Measure rice and water and place evenly in Rice Bowl.
NEVER PUT ANY
LIQUID INTO THE BASE.
2. Place Rice Bowl in Base, and Lid on Rice Bowl.
3. Plug cord into a 120 Volt AC outlet.
4. Depress the Switch to start cooking and the red Cooking Indicator Light
will glow. When cooking is complete, the Switch will move to the 'Warm'
position and the amber Indicator Light will glow. Fluff rice with the
spatula as soon as the red light goes out. The rice can be served
immediately or close the Lid and leave the rice in the Rice Cooker.
It is not recommended to use the 'WARM' cycle for longer than 2 hours.
IMPORTANT:
YOUR RICE COOKER WILL REMAIN IN THE 'WARM' CYCLE UNTIL IT IS
MANUALLY TURNED OFF.
ALWAYS REMEMBER TO UNPLUG FROM THE WALL OUTLET WHEN YOU ARE
DONE USING YOUR RICE COOKER.
NOTE: Before removing the Rice/Cooking Bowl from the Rice Cooker, always
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
