THIS APPLIANCE IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
No user-serviceable parts inside this rice cooker. Do not attempt to service this product. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the RICE COOKER. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. Do not immerse base in water or other liquids. No liability can be accepted for any damage caused by non-compliance with these instructions or any other improper use or mishandling.

Polarized Plug
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet. Congratulations on the purchase of your new RICE COOKER!

• Washing rice – Bran gives an unpleasant smell to the cooked rice. Be sure to wash rice thoroughly. Washing with water effectively removes bran quickly and thoroughly. NOTE: Some rice suppliers suggest not washing rice because vitamins may be lost.
• After use, wash the INNER POT, STEAMING BASKET and LID in warm, soapy water.
• Rinse thoroughly and dry.
• Avoid keeping the RICE COOKER in operation:
- When there is only a small amount of rice left in the INNER POT
- When RICE PADDLE and/or MEASURING CUP is inside the RICE COOKER
- To warm up cold rice
COOKING HINTS
HOW TO USE YOUR RICE COOKER
1. Measure the amount of rice you would like to cook. A 2⁄3cup (160 ml) MEASURING CUP is included with your RICE COOKER. Filling the MEASURING CUP with uncooked rice will make about 2 cups of cooked rice. NOTE: The RICE COOKER is capable of cooking up to 10 MEASURING CUPS of uncooked rice. Many varieties of rice can be used, including basmati, wild rice, black rice, Arborio, risotto, saffron rice, short and long grain. Do not use instant rice with this RICE COOKER. Whole grains such as barley can also be prepared with the RICE COOKER. Follow package directions.
2. Wash the measured rice in a separate bowl, if desired.
3. Put rice in the INNER POT and add water. Approximately 11⁄2plastic measuring cups of water per 1 plastic measuring cup of rice. For every additional cup of uncooked rice increase water by 1 cup. For example, to cook 4 cups of uncooked rice, add 41⁄2MEASURING CUPS of water. Adjust the amount of water to your personal taste.
4. Brown rice will take longer to cook. We suggest adding an additional 3⁄4cup of water.
5. Set the INNER POT into the rice cooker. Make sure that the INNER POT is in direct contact with the HEATING PLATE by turning it slightly from left to right until it properly fits onto the heating plate. NOTE: If the outside of the INNER POT is wet when placed in the RICE COOKER, this may cause a crackling noise until the unit heats up. Also, this may damage the inner working of the appliance, so always wipe the outside of the pot completely before use.
6. Cover with the LID. WARNING: Do not operate this appliance uncovered – steam is generated during use.
7. Plug the cord into a 120 volt AC electrical outlet. Switch the RICE COOKER ON by pushing the button down. Make sure the COOK LIGHT is on. Steaming will begin shortly.
8. The switch will pop up and the KEEP WARM LIGHT will come on when cooking is complete. NOTE: The length of steaming time is subject to your own personal taste.
9. After cooking it is important to let the rice stand for 5-10 minutes of steaming without removing the LID. Carefully open the LID, taking care to avoid escaping steam. Use the RICE PADDLE, or other long handled utensils, to mix the rice well to allow steam to escape. CAUTION: Steam will escape. Do not touch the INNER POT or HEATING UNIT until they have cooled.
10. Allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning.
11. Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet when not in use.
