Using your Rice Perfect

Before using your Rice Perfect for the first time wash the removable cooking pan, lid, rice measuring cup and serving spoon in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

To Cook Rice

1.Using the rice measuring cup provided, measure out the required quantity of rice (refer to rice cooking chart on page 9). Make sure the rice is a level cup measure.

NOTE:

1 level rice cup = 150g. .

1 cup uncooked white rice = 2 rice cups of cooked white rice (approximately)

1 cup uncooked brown rice = 2½ cups cooked brown rice (approximately)

This Sunbeam rice cup is not the same measurement as a standard metric cup

2.Place the measured rice in a sieve, and wash rice thoroughly under cold water. Wash until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch which helps to achieve fluffier rice. Alternatively, wash rice in the cooking pan two or three times until the water is clear, pouring out the milky water between each rinse.

3.Ensure the exterior of the cooking pan is clean and dry before placing it inside the heating vessel.

4.Place the washed rice in the cooking pan. Add cold water to the cup level indicated on the inside of the cooking pan or add the quantity of water specified in the cooking charts on page 9. Make sure the rice on the bottom of the pan is even when adding the water.

5.Replace the lid.

6.Insert the plug into a 230-240 volt AC power outlet and turn the power on. The “KEEP WARM” light will illuminate.

7.Depress the automatic control lever to “COOK” to begin the cooking cycle. The “COOK” light will illuminate.

8.When cooking is complete, your Rice Perfect will automatically switch to “KEEP WARM” mode and the “KEEP WARM” light will illuminate.

9.With the lid on, allow rice to stand in the “KEEP WARM” mode for 5-10 minutes for small quantities and approximately 10-15 minutes for larger quantities. DO NOT use metal utensils as these will scratch the non-stick coating. A plastic spoon is supplied.

10.The “KEEP WARM” cycle will continue until the power is switched off. If keeping the rice warm, stir, then replace lid. Rice can be kept warm in the Rice Perfect for up to 2 hours. After 2 hours rice should be refrigerated for storage if required.

NOTE: Whilst operating, do not remove the lid as this may affect cooking results. Do not interfere with the automatic control lever. Do not keep rice in the cooker for extended periods of time on “KEEP WARM” mode

as the rice becomes dry and the quality deteriorates.

Tips for cooking rice

Results may vary depending on the type of rice used.

1.For fluffier rice, add a little extra water and for firmer rice, add a little less water.

2.Should you happen to add too much extra water, the excess water may overflow during cooking. It is a good idea to cook the rice with the recommended quantity of water first and then if the rice is still firm, add a little extra water which can be stirred through at the end. You will then need

to depress the automatic lever to “COOK” mode.

3.The rice cup provided is not a standard metric measuring cup.

Sunbeam rice cup = 150g uncooked rice = 180ml water

If you lose the rice measuring cup provided use the ratio:

1 cup uncooked white rice = 1 cup water

1 cup uncooked brown rice = 1 ½ cups water

Cooking times will vary if using a larger measuring cup.

4.Wash rice thoroughly until the water runs clear.

5.Brown rice needs more water to cook, which results in a build up of starchy water and bubbles forming around the lid, which can cause spitting from the air vent. Make sure the brown rice is rinsed well before cooking.
