AUTOMATIC WHITE RICE OR BROWN RICE COOKING FUNCTIONS
If you would like to sauté prior to cooking rice or other ingredients, please refer
to Sauté Function section. Once you are done sautéing your ingredients, follow
instructions below.
You may also use Automatic Cook Function without sautéing any ingredients by
simply following these instructions:
1. Place rice and water inside inner pot.
2. Measure raw rice for desired amount with Measuring Cup (180 ml) provided.
One cup of uncooked rice will make about two cups of cooked rice for a
maximum of 10 cups (1.8 L) uncooked rice. Add rice to Inner Pot.
NOTE: Wash rice in a separate bowl, prior to cooking, if desired. For softer
rice, we suggest preparing rice and water in the Inner Pot and letting soak for
10 – 20 minutes before cooking.
3. Using Measuring Cup, add proper amount of water to rice inside inner pot (for
every cup [180 ml] of raw rice, add 1-1/2 cups of water).
NOTE: You may need to adjust quantity of water depending on kind of rice
you are cooking and how moist you prefer it. For sticky rice, add slightly more
water. For fluffy rice, use slightly less water. If you are cooking brown rice, add
more water. You may also need to adjust water quantity by adding more water
if you are using rice cooker at a high altitude.
4. Set inner pot into rice cooker. Make sure inner pot sits directly in contact with
heating plate by turning it slightly from right to left until seated properly. Cover
with Lid. WHEN USING AUTOMATIC COOK MODE, DO NOT OPERATE UNIT
UNCOVERED. STEAM IS GENERATED DURING USE.
5. Plug unit into appropriate electrical outlet.
6. All function indicator lights will start to blink. Press White Rice Button “Arroz” if
cooking white rice or Brown Rice Button “Arroz Integral” if cooking brown rice.
Only indicator light of selected function will remain solid on.
7. Press Start/Stop Button to start automatic cooking process.
IMPORTANT: If you use sauté function, you must manually turn off sauté
function by pressing Start/Stop Button before cooking rice. Lift and remove
lid carefully to avoid scalding and allow water to drip into inner pot. Use paddle
or another long handheld utensil to scoop and mix rice. After mixing, cover
inner pot with lid.
8. Rice cooker signal sound indicates when rice is ready and will automatically
switch to keep warm mode. Keep warm indicator light will turn on. Rice cooker
will automatically keep rice warm at 65°C – 71°C. Rice cooker will keep rice
warm for up to 3 hours and then will stop heating, going back into the standby
mode with all function lights blinking.
NOTE: You can interrupt, at any time, cooking or keep warm modes by pressing Start/
Stop Button . Unit will go back into standby mode with all function lights blinking.
Allow appliance to cool completely before cleaning. Disconnect plug from wall
outlet when not in use.
