Tips for cooking rice:
• Measure the rice with the measuring cup
provided. In the instructions below “cup” or
“cups” refers to the measuring cup provided
with the appliance.
• The cup should be full but not heaped. From
2-12 cups of rice can be cooked at a time.
• Wash the rice thoroughly. Use a separate
container to wash the rice to avoid damaging
the surface of the inner pot. Ensure rice has
been thoroughly rinsed with cold water before
cooking to prevent rice grains from sticking
to the inner pot. Repeat the process until the
water appears clear. This process also helps to
remove any starch and excess residue.
• Put the pre-washed rice in the inner pot.
• Add water to the level indicated on the scale
inside the inner pot that corresponds to the
number of cups of rice used. Do not exceed
the “12” cups mark indicated on the inside of
the inner pot. Then smooth the rice surface.
For instance, if you cook 4 cups of rice, add
water up to the 4-cup level indicated on the
scale.
Note: The level marked inside the inner pot is
just an indication. You can always adjust the
amount of rice or the water level for different
types of rice and your own preference.
• Let the raw rice soak for 5-10 minutes prior to
cooking – this will make the rice softer when it
is cooked.
Note: During cooking 8-12 cups rice, the
heating will be interrupted 2 minutes for 2
times to allow the rice to suck enough water, it
is normal to get an optimal rice texture.
• To get an optimal rice texture and moisture
level, allow the unit to remain on “Keep-Warm”
mode for several minutes after cooking, but it
is not recommended to leave rice on “Keep-
Warm” mode for a long period of time to
prevent your rice from drying out or
discolouring.
