SET UP & USE
Refer to the cooking instructions on
the package of rice you are using.
Follow the ratio, and adjust according
to suit your preferences. Alternatively,
use the marking under “CUPS” on the
inside of the rice bowl as a guideline.
Measure the desired quantity of rice
with a measuring cup (160 mL/8 oz).
Rinse the rice in cold water, if required,
and put into the rice bowl. Add cold
water; filling to the corresponding
marking on the inside of the rice bowl
that matches the number of cups of
rice you have used. For example: if you
using 4 cups of rice, add enough water
to reach the “4” mark in the rice bowl
under “CUPS.”
USING STANDARD MEASURING CUP
NOTE:
· Always add rice to the bowl before
adding water, otherwise you will have
too much water.
· To ensure that your rice cooker does
not boil over, never pour water into
the rice bowl exceeding the “MAX”
level marking on the side of the rice
bowl.
Please note that these are only suggested ratios. Different types of rice require
different ratios of rice to water. It is advisable to adjust the ratios to suit your own
tastes and preferences.
RICE TO WATER MEASUREMENT CHART
NOTE:
· Brown rice produces a greater volume when cooked than other varieties (approximately
three to four times the volume). To prevent sputter and overflow, it is recommended
that you do not cook more than 4 scoops of brown rice.
