water and then finally Keep warm (in this order). This phased cooking and adjustments in temperature
are controlled using Kumo’s fuzzy logic processor.

There are markings on the inside of the inner bowl to indicate the water levels for white long grain rice,
white short grain rice, brown rice and (rice) porridge. There are also markings on the YumCarb steaming
basket for white rice and brown rice. During the rice cooking cycles, a chasing lines pattern comes on
the display to indicate Kumo is cooking, a countdown will appear in the last 10 minutes.
Sticky or glutinous rice is different to normal short grain rice, it needs more water. If you are cooking
sticky/glutinous rice you need to follow the water guidance below and use the short grain setting.
