GETTING STARTED
This appliance is intended for household use only.
• Remove all packing material, any stickers, and the plastic band around the power plug.
• Please go to www.prodprotect.com/applica to register your warranty.
• Wash all removable parts as instructed in CARE AND CLEANING. Place the clean, dry cooking bowl in the cooking base.
• Select a location where this unit is to be used. Place the unit on a stable, heat resistant surface, free from cloth, liquids and any other flammable materials. Ensure that the unit has enough space all the way around and above it to allow heat to flow without damage to cabinets or walls.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR APPLIANCE
The All-in-One Cooking Pot gets hot. When in use, always use hot pads when touching any part of the appliance.
• During the first few minutes of use you may notice smoke and a slight odor. This is caused by oil that may have been used during manufacturing of the unit and will not impact the performance.
• To switch to different functions on the appliance, you must be in the cancel mode. The blue indicator light will be flashing above the warm/ cancel function. The unit is then in cancel mode and you will be able to switch to another function.
• As most meals cook, steam will escape through the vent in the lid. Place glass lid on the appliance so the steam vent is facing away from cabinets and walls. Do not place hand over steam vent while rice is cooking; the hot steam may burn.
• Use the provided plastic serving spoon to remove food and a wooden spoon to stir. Do not use metal utensils that can scratch the nonstick cooking bowl.
• Do not fill the cooking bowl higher than highest water marking measurement.
OPERATING YOUR ALL-IN-ONE COOKING POT
There are six ways to use your All-in-One Cooking Pot; Cooking directly in the cooking bowl (for rice, oatmeal and more), making pasta or steaming with the provided pasta/steaming basket, sautéing in the cooking bowl, making risotto utilizing the stirring arm, or slow cooking (high setting).

COOKING RICE

warm/cancel button. The appliance will remain in the cancel function until the rice button is pressed.
