This guide is for 3 cups of rice, which will serve 4-5 people.
PLEASE NOTE ALL INFORMATION IS APPROXIMATE. Rice and water measurements
can be altered according to your own personal taste. After cooking has completed, the
rice should be left to stand in the cooker for 10 minutes (excluding Arborio rice which
should be served immediately) before stirring and serving.

Steaming Function
We offer just two examples here of foods such as fish and vegetables which can be
quickly and effectively steamed - there are of course a huge number of foods which
benefit from steam cooking, and you will very soon build routines to steam-cook your
favourites.
Steaming
•
This is not an automatically timed function - steaming times must be assessed
and timed manually.
•
We do not recommend cooking rice and steaming food at the same time.
•
Pour water into the inner pot
11
to a depth of at least 2½cm / 1”.
•
Place the steamer insert
13
on top of inner pot
11
, and close the lid
1
. Push down
the rice cooking button
10
- the water will take about 10 minutes to boil - time your
steaming from that point.
•
At the end of steaming slide the rice cooking button
10
up to return it to the ready
position. Beware hot steam when the lid
1
is opened.
•
NOTE: If all the water evaporates, a safety control will cause the unit to switch to keep
warm.
