RICE - BROWN RICE - STICKY/SUSHI
RICE - FAST COOK FUNCTIONS)
1. Use the measuring cup, provided to
measure the required quantities of rice.
When using the cup always ensure to
measure a level cup, not heaped (Fig 1.).
Fig. 1
2. Wash the rice by placing it in a sieve under
cold running water. This will remove any
excess starch. The rice is ready when the
water runs clear from the sieve. Drain the
rice well before cooking.
3. Place the rice into the removable cooking
bowl, ensuring that it is evenly spread
across the bottom of the cooking bowl
(Fig 2.).
Fig. 2

USING THE STEAM FUNCTION
Steamed foods retain most of their nutritional
value. Food may be steamed by placing it in
the steaming basket over stock or water in
the cooking bowl and closing the lid. When
steaming, it is important to keep the lid closed
as opening it will allow the steam to escape,
resulting in prolonged cooking times.
1. Place 4 measuring cups of water or stock
into the removable cooking bowl (use a

the removable cooking bowl into the rice
cooker housing.
2. Place the food being steamed directly into
the steaming basket, place the basket into
the cooking bowl and close the lid.
3. Press the MENU button until the arrow
to the left of STEAM illuminates and the
default time is displayed. Set the desired
steaming time by pressing the TIMER
and the MIN buttons. Select START to

steamed food is ready.
6. If further cooking is required, check the
liquid levels in the removable cooking bowl
and if required, top up with hot liquid before
restarting the STEAM function. If no further
cooking is required, press the CANCEL
button, turn the rice cooker off at the power
outlet and unplug the power cord.
7. For further information on steaming, refer to
the Steaming Guide on page 18.
CAUTION
Use caution when opening the lid after cooking
to avoid scalding from escaping steam.
NOTE
The lid should be kept closed during the
cooking process to ensure that the steam
doesn’t escape, resulting in a prolonged
cooking time.
USING THE SOUP / PORRIDGE
FUNCTIONS
1. Place all ingredients in the removable
cooking bowl ensuring an even spread
across the bottom of the cooking bowl.
2. Close the lid, pressing down firmly until the

3. Press the MENU button until the arrow next
to the desired function is illuminated. The
default cooking time will be displayed on
the LED screen. To adjust the time, press
the TIMER button and the HOUR and MIN
buttons until the desired time is displayed.
To start cooking, press the START button.
4. Once the timer reaches zero, the rice cooker
will beep and automatically change to
KEEP WARM mode.
Soup
• The maximum capacity when using the
SOUP function is 3.2 litres. This is marked on
the cooking bowl as the 10 CUP or 1.8L line.
Porridge
• Ensure ratios are correct, before commencing
cooking. Refer to the Porridge cooking guide
on page 15.
• The maximum capacity is 10 cups of oats.
Exceeding the maximum will affect the
cooking results and may cause overflow.
• Once cooking is complete, stir well before
serving.
12
USING THE CAKE FUNCTION
The cake function is similar to the rice cooking
functions. The fuzzy logic technology will
determine the required cooking for the cake
based on the temperature of the mixture in the
bowl.
1. Place all combined ingredients into the
removable cooking bowl, ensuring an even
distribution over the base of the bowl and
select the CAKE function.
2. Once complete, use heat-proof mitts to
remove the cooking bowl. Turn the bowl
upside down to remove the cake. Place the
cake on a cooling rack to cool.
• The cooking bowl will make 1 x 21cm round
cake.
• Cake batter should not exceed the 2 CUP level
marking on the inside of the cooking bowl.
• Lightly spray the inside of the removable
cooking bowl with cooking spray, then wipe
with paper towel before adding cake batter.
USING THE REHEAT FUNCTION
The reheat function is programmed to reheat
cold cooked rice to serving temperature. This
setting is best suited to reheating smaller
quantities of cooked rice. It is recommended to
not exceed the 4 cup marking on the cooking
bowl.
The timer cannot be adjusted when using this
function, as the rice cooker is programmed to
heat the rice contents to the correct serving
temperature before switching to the KEEP
WARM mode.
1. Place the rice to be reheated into the
cooking bowl. Loosen the rice with a fork
and add a small amount of water to avoid
sticking or burning.
2. Select the REHEAT button. The light
will remain illuminated for the reheating
process. Once the rice has reached serving
temperature, the rice cooker will beep
before automatically changing to KEEP
WARM mode.
USING THE KEEP WARM FUNCTION
All functions on this rice cooker will
automatically switch into KEEP WARM mode
once the cooking process is complete. When
the rice cooker is on KEEP WARM mode the
KEEP WARM light will remain illuminated
and the LED display will count up.
The maximum amount of time that the rice
cooker will remain on KEEP WARM mode is
24 hours. To ensure the quality of the cooked
food, it should not be held on KEEP WARM for
longer than 8 hours. For optimum quality rice,
it should only be left on KEEP WARM for 5-8
hours.
USING THE PRE-SET TIMER
FUNCTION
The pre-set timer can be used on all functions,
except for CAKE. The pre-set timer allows you
to set the rice cooker to commence cooking
and finish by a specified timer.
To set the timer, select the desired cooking
function then press PRESET. Use the HOUR
and MIN buttons to adjust the timing as
shown on the screen (the time being set is the
finishing time). Select START and the rice
cooker will start counting down.
For example: On the PORRIDGE function,
setting 2 hour and 30 minutes, means that the
rice cooker will complete the cooking cycle and
the porridge will be ready to serve in 2 hour
and 30 minutes.
CANCEL BUTTON
The CANCEL button can be pressed at any
time to stop and cancel a cooking function.
The rice cooker will return to standby mode
once the cooking function has been cancelled.
Pressing the CANCEL button again will place
the rice cooker into KEEP WARM mode. The
light will remain illuminated and the LED
display will commence counting up.
Food should not be place into KEEP WARM
mode unless the cooking cycle has completed.

• Washed rice will have some extra water
after rinsing, this extra water may lead to an
increased cooking time. Reduce the measured
amount of water added, if necessary.
• 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 pack or use the brown rice cooking
table as a guide.
• Do not fill the removable cooking bowl above
the MAX level marking indicated.
RICE VARIATIONS
• Savoury rice: prepare rice in the rice cooker
as specified, but substitute water with
the same volume of chicken, beef, fish or
vegetable stock.
• Sweet rice: prepare rice in the rice cooker
as specified, substituting half the water with
apple, orange or pineapple juice.
• Saffron rice: Add ½ teaspoon of threads to
