Cooking Rice
Note:
Coat the inside of the cooking bowl 4 evenly with a little grease or vegetable oil to achieve a better cooking result.
1. Remove the lid 2.
2. Take the cooking bowl 4 out.
- 3 -
Note:
If the cooking bowl 4 is damaged, discontinue all further use! Due to the damage it may be that the safety shut-off of the appliance has triggered and the appliance does not allow itself to be switched on.
Note:
If you use warm water the cooking time can be shortened. In this case, use somewhat less water than is given on the cup marking in the cooking bowl 4.
3. Measure the desired quantity of rice using the
supplied measuring cup. As a general rule: A level measuring cup - filled with rice - yeilds a portion for one person. Deter­mine the right quantity of rice and water for you in a few cooking attempts.
4. Thoroughly wash and sieve the loose rice. Nu-
trients will be lost with this, however, if you do not wash the rice this could lead to poor cooking results and elevated foam and steam formation in the cooking bowl 4. Also, always pay heed to the preparation instructions of the rice produ­cer.
5. After washing it, pour the rice into the cooking
bowl 4 and smooth it out.
Note:
Place at least 2 measuring beakers of rice into the rice cooker! A lesser volume of rice could cause inferior cooking results!
6. Then add water in the cooking bowl 4 as per
the following cup markings:
• 2 Measuring beakers of rice = Water up to cup marking "2"
• 4 Measuring beakers of rice = Water up to cup marking "4"
• 6 Measuring beakers of rice = Water up to cup marking "6"
• 8 Measuring beakers of rice = Water up to cup marking "8"
• 10 Measuring beakers of rice = Water up to cup marking "10"
Subject to taste preferences, salt can also be added to the rice.
Note:
Subject to the type/sort of rice being prepared, it could be that you may have to insert a little more or less water to achieve an optimal cooking result. Vary the amount of water in accordance with your individual experiences and personal preference.
7. When the cooking bowl 4 is full, place it back in the rice cooker housing.
Ensure that...
- ... to avoid dirtying the cooking area, check to
make sure there is no moisture or rice located on the outside of the cooking bowl 4. If necessary, wipe the outside with a clean cloth.
- ... the cooking bowl 4 is not skewed or tilted
when being placed in the rice cooker housing. Always insert the cooking bowl 4 correctly and precisely into the rice cooker housing. If you do not, it may be that the safety shut-off of the appliance will trigger and the appliance does not allow itself to be switched on.
Note:
This appliance is fitted with a safety switch: the cooking process cannot be started with an empty cooking bowl 4.
8. Close the appliance lid 2.
9. Insert the power cable into the socket 8 on the side of the appliance.
10. Insert the power plug into a properly installed power socket. The yellow control lamp 5 glows.
