SET UP & USE
To steam vegetables, dumplings and
other foods, use the steamer basket
included with your rice cooker.
1. Prepare the food to be steamed
and place into the steamer basket.
Please note the larger the pieces
or vegetables are, the longer it will
take to cook.
2. Fill the rice bowl with a sufficient
amount of water. You should fill the
bowl according to how long you
will be using the Steam function. If
you are using the Steam cycle for a
short amount of time, use less water
(never less than 1 cup/250 mL under
CUPS or 1.5 under SCOOPS). If you
are using a longer amount of steam
time, use more water (never more
than 6 scoops/4 cups). Filling over
the 6 marking under “SCOOPS”
(4 under “CUPS”) will result in the
possibility of overflowing while in
the steam cycle. The amount of
water used to fill the rice bowl will
affect the cooking time; it is advised
you experiment by using the Steam
setting with different amounts of
water before you find an amount
that suits your personal preference.
3. Place the steam basket into the rice
bowl. The steam basket will sit near
the top of the rice bowl, with the
water underneath.
4. Close rice cooker lid. The lid should
“click” into place.
5. Plug cord into a 120V AC 60Hz only
outlet.
6. Press the STEAM button. The
word STEAM should appear in
the top right of the screen. Press
the button to start the cooking
process and the steam indicator
light should engage. The light will
stop flashing and the time will begin
STEAM DIRECTIONS
Be sure to clean the
condensation chamber on the
side of the rice cooker body
after each use. To clean, remove
the chamber by pressing on the
side of the plastic cover and
removing by pulling outwards.
Clean by running the plastic
cover under warm running
water. Dry thoroughly and
replace by pushing the cover
back into the groove on the
rice cooker body. Refer to the

to count downwards. The Steam
function has a default cooking time
of 5 minutes (05oo).
NOTE:
· If you wish to change the default
time, see the heading “Changing the
Default Time,” pg. 12.
7. When the cooking is complete,
the rice cooker will automatically
switch into a Warm mode. The word
WARM will automatically appear in
the bottom left of the display. The
time will start to count upwards
to a maximum time of 90 minutes
(90oo). To turn off the Warm
feature, press the button.
8. To remove steamed foods, open
the lid, being careful to avoid steam.
Remove food with spatula. You may
remove the steamer basket, but
never remove the rice bowl, unless
the rice cooker power button has
been placed in standby mode and
the unit is unplugged. Always wear
protective oven mitts when touching
hot surfaces such as the steamer
basket or rice bowl.
