USING YOUR RICE COOKER
Your Rice Cooker includes a convenient and useful Sauté Function, which allows you to sauté/brown onions, garlic and/or
other ingredients in oil prior to cooking. It also allows you to cook risotto.
You can choose to cook rice or other meals directly without the need to sauté, but this added feature gives you greater
versatility in the preparation of your favourite recipes.
SAUTÉ FUNCTION
This function is designed to allow you to sauté or brown ingredients.
1. Connect power cord to an electrical outlet and press the Sauté button
G
once to activate the function. The red Sauté
light
J
will come on. Allow the inner bowl to heat up for approximately 1 minute.
2. Add oil or butter and allow it to heat up for a few moments. Next, place the food to be sautéed inside the inner bowl.
3. Sauté the food while stirring.
4. The sauté function requires close supervision and needs to be controlled manually. Don’t leave your Rice Cooker
unattended when in Sauté mode. When you have finished sautéing, press the Sauté button to turn off the sauté
function. The red Sauté light will go out.
Note that this will NOT switch your Rice Cooker off
.
IMPORTANT
: Before cooking rice, you must manually turn off the Sauté function.
NOTE
: Do not use a metal spoon to stir the food in the inner bowl as this may damage the non-stick coating.
COOKING WHITE RICE
Make sure your Rice Cooker is switched off, unplugged at the mains supply socket and is fully cooled before
assembling or disassembling. During use the glass lid, inner bowl and cooker body will get very hot. Always
handle with care and use oven gloves.
Always check that the rice is thoroughly cooked before serving.
1. Place the inner bowl
B
inside the cooker body. Ensure the bowl is positioned correctly before continuing.
2. Use the supplied measuring cup to measure the required quantity of rice into a container for washing. For quantities
see the rice cooking guides on page 5. For accuracy, always fill the measuring cup with rice until it is level with the top
of the cup. Don’t use heaped measures.
3. Wash the rice thoroughly under cold running water. This will remove the excess starch from the rice and produce better
results when cooking. Add the washed rice to the inner bowl spreading it evenly across the bottom of the bowl.
4. Using the supplied measuring cup, add the required quantity of cold water to the inner bowl. For quantities see the rice
cooking guides on page 5. Make sure that the bowl is not filled above the maximum level marking.
5. Place the glass lid
A
onto the inner bowl.
6. Plug your rice cooker into a suitable mains supply socket.
7. Move the Cook/Keep Warm switch
F
to the down (cook) position. The amber cook light
I
will illuminate.
8. When the rice is cooked, the Cook/Keep Warm switch will automatically switch to the keep warm position and the green
keep warm light
H
will illuminate. We recommend that you don’t leave your rice cooker on the Keep Warm setting for
longer than one hour.
After use, unplug your rice cooker from the supply socket. Your rice cooker does not switch off automatically
.
COOKING BROWN RICE
Please note that when cooking brown rice the maximum amount of raw rice must not exceeed 8 cups (for the
CKCPRC6039) and 10 cups (for the CKCPRC6040). This is because brown rice absorbs more water as it cooks and
produces a fluffier rice which has more volume. Because of this we advise you to follow the rice cooking guides on page 5.
