IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following :

Read all instructions.

Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

To protect against electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs in water or other liquid.

Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.

Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner.

Return appliance to your nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent.

The use of accessary attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.

Do not use outdoors.

Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, on in a heated oven.

Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.

Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet.

To disconnect, turn any control to “off”, then remove plug from wall outlet.

Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

Do not obstruct the steam vent hole with any articles, e.g.a piece of cloth.

Do not place the inner pot directly over flame for cooking.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

THIS APPLIANCE IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Avoid touching hot parts : outer lid, inner pot, detachable cover and especially the steam vent hole.

Do not switch on when the main body is empty.

Make sure that heating plate and the magnetic switch are clean and dry whenever putting the inner pot into the cooker.

Do not use sharp instruments to clean the inner pot as these will damage the nonstick coating.

A short power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

Note:

A.A short power-supply cord (or cord set) is to be provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

B.Longer cord set or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

C.If a long cord set or extension cord is used.

(1)the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

(2)if the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type threewire cord, and

(3)the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

This appliance has a polarized plug : (one blade is wider than the other).

As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only only one way.

If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.

If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.

Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

CAUTION : During use, the internal parts of the rice cooker and the area around the steam vent are HOT.

Keep out of reach of children to avoid possible injury.

HOW TO USE “GABA”

What is Germinated Brown rice?

Brown rice has richer nutrients than polished rice. However, brown rice is rather tough and harder to be digested. By a least germination, the enzymes in the brown rice are activated, generating nutrients and more digestible.

Check the dates of harvest and pounding.

The dates should be within 1year from a harvest, 3 months from pounding.

Inspect rice with your eyes.

•heck that embryo is alive

•Rice surface should be light yellow and glazing. Whitely stirred up surface, or darkish colored Brown rice is not suitable for a germination

•Avoid fractured, not fully corned, or empty ear. Empty ear may generate odor during germination and bluishnor corned Brown rice cannot be germinated.

Features of Germinated Brown rice

Germinated Brown rice increases nutrients and enhances taste which is a weak point of brown rice. Germinated Brown rice also improves digestibility.

Taste will be greatly enhanced.Digestive and rich in nutrients.

•Diatetic hormone is generated improving digestibility.Good as a health food for children or students.

- Rich with dietary fiber.

Germinated brown rice has rich GABA (Gamma Aminobutyric Acid)

-GABA promotes metabolism in liver and kidneys, suppresses neutral fat, lowers blood pressure, promotes metabolism in brain cells - these effects have been proved by medical science.

HOW TO USE “GABA”

Using “GABA” Menu

1In order to promote germination, soak brown rice for 16 hours in water.

Method of Pre-germination

Put washed brown rice in an appropriate container, pour sufficient water to soak the rice.

Pre-germination shall not exceed 16 hours. Make sure to wash rice clean with flowing water before using “GABA” menu. Be careful that too hard washing may take off embryos which generate the germination.

Unique smell may be generated according to the soaking time of pre-germination.

When pro-germination has been completed, wash the rice and put in inner pot (Oven). Pour appropriated volume of water, and use “GABA” menu.

In summer or hot temperature environment odor may be generated. Reduce germination time and wash clean when cooking.

2.Press the “Hrs” button in the 'Keep Warm during Sleep' mode and press the “Cook” button to set the function when the ' ' letters are fixed on the display.

In summer, cooked rice may be discolored or develop an odor. Do not activate the 'Keep Warm during Sleep' mode if at all possible.

Odor Develops While Keeping Warm

Clean the cooker frequently. In particular, negligent cleaning of the lid part may develop an odor while keeping warm because of the proliferation of bacteria.

Even though the product is apparently clean, bacteria can be present. If strong odors develop, boil water to sterilize. Fill with the water up to the plain rice water level line for 2 persons and add a big spoonful of ginger. After that, close the lid and press the Cook/Turbo button to boil the water.

Press the Cancel button 30 ~ 40 minutes after boiling. After boiling, always clean the inner pot.

If you keep the cooked rice warm without cleaning the inner pot after steaming food, an odor may penetrate the rice.
