Breville recommends safety first
We at Breville are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with the safety of you,
our valued customer, foremost in mind. In addition, we ask that you exercise a degree of care when using any
electrical appliance and adhere to the following precautions.
Important safeguards for your Breville Rice Master
• Carefully read all instructions before operating and
save for future reference.
• Remove any packaging material and promotional
stickers before using the Rice Master for the
first time.
• Do not place the Rice Master near the edge of a
bench or table during operation. Ensure the surface
is level, clean and free of water.
• Do not place the Rice Master on or near a hot gas
or electric burner, or where it could touch a heated
oven. Place appliance at least 20cm away from
walls and curtains.
• Do not use on metal surfaces, for example, a sink
drain board.
• Use only the removable cooking bowl supplied with
the Rice Master. Do not use a damaged or dented
removable cooking bowl. Replace before using.
• Never plug in or switch on the Rice Master without
having the removable cooking bowl placed inside
the outer housing.
• Do not put liquid into the outer housing. Only
the removable cooking bowl is designed to
contain liquid.
• Do not touch hot surfaces; use pot holders to
remove the removable cooking bowl and
steaming tray.
• Lift and remove the glass lid carefully and angled
away from yourself to avoid scalding from escaping
steam. Do not allow water from the lid to drip into
the housing, only into the removable cooking bowl.
• Always ensure the power is switched off at the
power outlet and the cord is unplugged from the
power outlet before attempting to move the
appliance, when not in use and before cleaning or
storing. Allow all parts to cool before disassembling
for cleaning.
• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse
the outer housing, cord or power plug in water or
any other liquid.
• Do not move the rice cooker during cooking.
• Do not leave the rice cooker unattended when
in use.
• Keep the appliance clean. Follow the cleaning
instructions provided in this book.

Before first use, remove all promotional labels and
any packaging materials and wash the non-stick
removable cooking bowl, steaming tray and glass lid
in hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.
How to cook rice
Step 1
Use the Rice Master measuring cup provided to
measure the required quantity of rice (refer to
cooking tables on page 9). Always measure level
cups, not heaped (Fig 1).
Fig 1 Fig 2
Step 2
Place the rice into a separate bowl and wash rice by
rinsing with cold water to remove any excess starch.
The rice is ready for cooking when water runs clear
from the rice.
Step 3
Ensure the exterior of the removable cooking bowl
is clean before placing it in the outer housing, this
will ensure proper contact with the inner cooking
surface. (Fig 2).
1 level Rice Master measuring cup = 140grams
uncooked rice

Step 4
Add the washed rice to the removable cooking bowl,
ensuring rice is spread evenly across the bottom of
the bowl and not heaped to one side (Fig 3).
Fig 3
Step 5
Add water using the following ratios:
White Rice = 1 cup water : 1 cup rice
Brown Rice = 1
(Refer to table on page 9 for more information)
1
⁄2cups water : 1 cup rice
Step 6
Place the glass lid into position.
Step 7
Plug into a 230/240 volt power outlet and then
switch the power on at power outlet. The amber
‘Warm’ light will illuminate.
Step 8
To commence cooking, depress the Selector Control.
The red ‘Cook’ light will illuminate.
Step 9
When cooking is complete, the Rice Master will
automatically switch to the ‘Keep Warm’ setting.
The amber ‘Warm’ light will illuminate.
Step 10
Open the lid and turn the rice over with the serving
spoon provided. Replace the lid and allow the rice to
stand for 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows
any excess moisture to be absorbed, resulting in a
fluffier rice texture.
Rice can be kept in the automatic ‘Keep Warm’
setting for up to 5 hours.
Do not remove the glass lid until ready to serve
(except for when turning over rice after cooking
is complete or as suggested in the recipes).
To stop the ‘Keep Warm’ setting, switch off at
the power outlet and then unplug the cord.
Note
Important
• Always place liquid into the removable cooking bowl,
or be ready to add oil, butter or margarine, before
depressing the Selector Control to the ‘Cook’ setting.
• Never try to force the Selector Control to stay in the
‘Cook’ setting after it has automatically switched to
the ‘Keep Warm’ setting.
• Do not interfere with the automatic Selector Control
during operation.
• To prevent scratching the non-stick surface of the
removable cooking bowl or steaming tray, always
use wooden or plastic utensils.
ALWAYS LIFT AND REMOVE THE LID CAREFULLY, ANGLING IT AWAY FROM YOURSELF TO AVOID
SCALDING FROM ESCAPING STEAM.

Rice cooking tables
The rice measuring cup provided with your Breville
Rice Master is used in the following tables.
The Rice Master measuring cup is not a standard
metric measuring cup.
1 Rice Master measuring cup is equal to 140g of
uncooked rice and 175 ml of water.
1 Australian standard metric measuring cup is
equal to 200g of uncooked rice.
If your Rice Master measuring cup is lost or
misplaced, use another cup but maintain the
same cooking ratios and ensure you do not
exceed the 8 cup maximum line in the
removable cooking bowl:
White rice = 1 cup water : 1 cup rice
Brown rice = 1
1
⁄2cups water : 1 cup rice
Note
Add a little extra water for fluffier rice and a
little less water for firmer rice.
Washed rice will have some extra water adhering
after rinsing. This extra water will extend the
cooking time slightly. Reduce the measured
amount of water to compensate, if required.
Some rice varieties may require more water for
cooking, such as wild rice blends, Arborio rice or
short grain rice. Follow the directions on the
packet or use the brown rice cooking table.
Due to the additional water needed to cook
brown rice, some starchy water bubbles may rise
to the lid while cooking. For best results, wash
brown rice before cooking and allow to stand on
the ‘Keep Warm’ setting for 20 minutes after
cooking to absorb the remaining moisture.
