· Before placing the inner
pot into the cooker,
check that it is dry and
free of debris. Adding
the inner pot when
wet may damage the
cooker.
· Multigrain requires a
much longer cooking
cycle than other rice
varieties due to the
extra bran layers on the
grains. The multigrain
function on this cooker
allows extra time and
adjusted heat settings
in order to cook the rice
properly. If it appears
the cooker is not heating
up immediately on
the multigrain setting,
this is due to a low-
heat soak cycle that
proceeds the cooking
cycle to produce better
multigrain results.
· Rice should not be left
in the cooker on
Keep
Warm
for more than 12
hours.
