ASSEMBLING YOUR RICE COOKER
1.
Before first use, remove all packaging
material and promotional labels.
2.
Wash the non-stick removable cooking
bowl, stainless steel steaming tray and
glass lid in hot soapy water, rinse and
dry thoroughly. To prevent scratching
the non-stick surface of the removable
cooking bowl, always use wooden or
plastic utensils.
3.
Ensure the exterior of the removable
cooking bowl is clean before placing it
in the housing (this will ensure proper
contact with the inner cooking surface)
(Fig 2).
4.
Plug power cord into a 230V or 240V
power outlet. The START|CANCEL
button and RICE|STEAM button
surround will illuminate white. The rice
cooker is now ready for use.

RICE COOKING
1.
Follow assembly instructions on page 6.
Fig. 1
2.
Use the scoop provided to measure
the required quantity of rice (refer
to cooking tables - page 17). Always
measure level scoops, not heaped (Fig 1).
3.
Place measured rice into a separate bowl
and wash with cold water to remove
any excess starch. The rice is ready for
cooking when water runs clear from the
rice. Drain well.
4.
Add the washed rice to the removable
cooking bowl, ensuring rice is spread
evenly across the bottom of the bowl and
not heaped to one side (Fig 2).

5.
Add water using the following ratios:
White Rice = 1 scoop rice : 1 scoop water.
Brown Rice = 1 scoop rice : 1
½
scoops
water.
6.
Place the glass lid into position.
7.
Press the RICE|STEAM button if not
already selected, the button surround
will illuminate white. Press the
START|CANCEL button to activate
the setting, the button surround
will illuminate red and cooking will
commence.
8.
When cooking is complete, the ready
beeps will sound and the rice cooker
will automatically switch to the
KEEP WARM setting for up to 5 hours.
To stop the keep warm setting, switch
off the power outlet and unplug the
cord.
9.
Open the lid and turn the rice over with
a non-metal spoon. Replace the lid and
allow the rice to stand for 10–15 minutes
before serving. This allows any excess
moisture to be absorbed, resulting in a
fluffier rice texture.
STEAMING
Foods may be steamed by placing food in the
stainless steel steaming tray over stock or
water and covering with the glass lid.
Keep the glass lid on while steaming food
unless the recipe or chart specifically states
to remove the lid. By removing the lid
unnecessarily steam is lost and the cooking
time will be extended.
1.
Follow assembly instructions on page 6.
2.
Measure 3 rice scoops or more of water or
stock and pour into the removable cooking
bowl. Use up to a maximum of 6 rice scoop
cups of water.
3.
Place food to be steamed directly into
the stainless steel steaming tray and
insert into the removable cooking bowl.
(Refer to the Steaming Charts on page
22–24 for approximate cooking times).
4.
Press the RICE|STEAM button if not
already selected, the button surround
will illuminate white. Press the
START|CANCEL button to activate
the setting, the button surround
will illuminate red and cooking
will commence.
5.
When steaming is complete, the ready
beeps will sound and the rice cooker
will automatically switch to the
KEEP WARM setting.
6.
If no further steaming is required, press
the START|CANCEL button to cease
operation and turn the rice cooker off at
the power outlet and then unplug power
cord. Allow to cool before cleaning.
HINTS AND TIPS FOR
STEAMING VEGETABLES
•
Smaller pieces will steam faster than
larger pieces.
•
Try to keep vegetables to a standard size
to ensure even cooking.
•
Fresh or frozen vegetables may
be steamed.
•
If steaming frozen vegetables, do
not thaw.
•
The size and shape of vegetables, as
well as personal taste, may call for
adjustments to the cooking time. If
softer vegetables are required, allow
extra cooking time.
•
Do not allow water or stock to reach the
stainless steel tray. The steaming will
not be effective.
WARNING
Always lift and remove the lid carefully,
angling it away from yourself to avoid
scalding from escaping steam.
