BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST

At Breville we 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

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE AND SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

• Carefully read all instructions before

operating and save for future reference.

• Remove any packaging material and

promotional labels before using the Rice Cooker for the ﬁrst time.

• To eliminate choking hazard for young

children, remove and safely discard the protective cover ﬁtted to the power plug of this appliance.

• The Rice Cooker is not intended to be

operated by means of external timer or separate remote control system.

• Do not place the Rice Cooker 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 Cooker 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 a sink

drain board.

• Use only the removable cooking bowl

supplied with the Rice Cooker. Do not use a damaged or dented removable cooking bowl. If damaged or dented replace before using.

• Never plug in or switch on the Rice Cooker

without having the removable cooking bowl placed inside the outer housing.

• Do not put food or 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.

• Open the lid carefully 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.

• The glass lid has been specially treated

to make it stronger, more durable and safer than ordinary glass, however it is not unbreakable. If struck extremely hard, it may break or weaken and could at a later time shatter into many small pieces without apparent cause.

• Always have the glass lid placed

correctly into position on the Rice Cooker throughout operation of the appliance unless stated on the recipe to have it removed.

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE THE SET & SERVE

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 Rice Duo measuring cup provided to measure required quantity of rice (refer to cooking tables on page 13). Always measure level cups, not heaped (Fig 1).

Fig. 1

NOTE

1 level Rice Duo measuring cup = 150 grams uncooked rice

1 level Rice Duo cup uncooked rice = 2 Rice Duo cups cooked rice (approx.)

The maximum quantity of uncooked white rice to be cooked = 7 Rice Duo cups

The minimum quantity of uncooked white rice to be cooked = 2 Rice Duo cups

Step 2

Place measured 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).

Fig. 2

Step 4

Add 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 Rice Duo measuring cup

water : 1 Rice Duo measuring cup rice Brown Rice = 1½ Rice Duo measuring cups

water : 1 Rice Duo measuring cup rice (Refer to table on page 13 for

more information)

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE THE SET & SERVE

Step 6

Place glass lid into position.

Step 7

Plug power cord into a 230V or 240V 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 Cooker will automatically switch to the ‘Keep Warm’ setting. The amber ‘Warm’ light will illuminate.

Step 10

Open lid and turn rice over with serving spoon provided. Replace lid and allow rice to stand for 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows any excess moisture to be absorbed, resulting in a ﬂufﬁer rice texture.

NOTE

Rice can be kept in the automatic ‘Keep Warm’ setting for up to 5 hours.

Do not remove glass lid until ready to serve (except for when turning over rice after cooking is complete or as suggested in the recipes).

To stop ‘Keep Warm’ setting, switch off at the power outlet and then unplug cord.

IMPORTANT

• Always place liquid into 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 automatic Selector Control during operation.

• To prevent scratching non-stick surface of the removable cooking bowl or steaming tray, always use wooden or plastic utensils.

WARNING

Always lift and remove lid carefully, angling it away from yourself to avoid scalding from escaping steam.
