Use - Cooking Rice
Measure the rice using the measuring cup (M) provided. Each cup of uncooked rice
normally gives two bowls of uncooked rice. Do not exceed the quantities indicated on the
inside of the inner pot.
Before cooking, wash the rice thoroughly under cold running water to remove excess
starch. Use a colander or fine sieve for this – do not use the cooking bowl as you may
scratch the non stick coating.
Add the washed rice to the cooking bowl and add water. The amount of water required is
indicated on the scale (D) on the inside of the cooking pot.

Put the cooking bowl into the rice cooker.
Check to ensure the cooking bowl is in
good contact with the heating plate and
add the lid to the cooking bowl.
Plug the supply cord into a suitable electric
supply. The cook indicator (K) light will light
up.
Press the control lever (I) down to start the
cooking process.
When the cooking process is finished, the
cook light will go out and the keep warm
light (J) will come on automatically.
Remove the lid and stir the rice. For the
best results, do this just after the keep
warm function light comes on. Stirring the
rice with the rice spoon (N) allows the
steam to escape. This will give fluffier rice.
Steaming
The steaming function may only be used in
combination with the rice cooking function.
Measure out the required amount of rice (as
above) and ensure there is enough room for
the steamer tray (O) on the top of the
cooking bowl.
Add the food to be steamed into the
steamer tray. Ensure the food is spread out
evenly to ensure even steaming. Do not pile
up the food.
Add the lid to the steaming tray ensuring it
fits securely.
Continue with the rice cooking process (as
described above). Once the rice is cooked
the food should be steamed. Remove the lid
very carefully and remove the steam tray.
Use a kitchen glove or a cloth as the steam
tray will be very hot.
Be aware of the hot steam escaping.
Trying to steam too much food will result in
the food not been adequately steamed.

socket before leaving the appliance
unattended and before changing,
