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 in 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.

Short Cord Instructions

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

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

If a longer extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

Instructions For Use

Cooking Rice

Many varieties of rice can be used, including basmati, wild, black rice, arborio, risotto, saffron rice, brown, and long grain. We do not recommend using instant rice with this Rice Cooker.

1. Measure the amount of rice that you would like to cook. A 180 ml (3/4 cup) Rice Measuring Cup is included with your Rice Cooker. Filling the cup with rice makes approximately 2 - 1/4 cups of cooked rice.

NOTE: Make sure that the rice is leveled when the cup is filled. The 7 Cup Automatic Rice Cooker has the capacity for 7 Rice Measuring Cups of dry rice.

2. For Best Results: Pour desired amount of rice into a separate container. Wash and rinse the rice until the rinse water is clear.*

3. Take the Inner Pot out of the Rice Cooker. Place the washed rice into the Inner Pot and add appropriate amount of water. (If you are making 7 cups of dry rice, add water to the “7” mark in the inside of the Inner Pot.)

Use Rice Measuring Cup provided to measure 7 level Rice Measuring Cups of rice.

Rinse, if desired. Add rice to the Cooking Pot

Add water up to the 7-cup line

4. Replace the Inner Pot back into the Automatic Rice Cooker’s Main Housing. Rotate it slightly to make sure that it is well seated on the Heating Plate.

NOTE: Make sure to always wipe down the outer surface of the Inner Pot. If the Inner Pot is wet when placed into the Cooker, this may cause a cracking noise while the unit heats up. Keep the outer surface dr y to prevent damage to the inner workings of the appliance.

* For information regarding rinsing rice, please refer to General

Information on page 10.

5. Replace the Glass Lid.

CAUTION: Do not operate the Automatic Rice Cooker without replacing the Lid. Burns or other serious injur y may occur.

6. Plug the Automatic Rice Cooker into a 120V AC electrical outlet.

Press the Rice Cooking Selector Lever down and the COOK Light will illuminate. The cooking process begins as soon as the Light illuminates.

7. When the Automatic Rice Cooker is done cooking, the WARM

Light will illuminate. For best results, let the cooked rice sit for 15 minutes before stirring or removing. This allows the steam to finish the cooking process.

8. Mix the rice.After rice has steamed for 15 minutes, carefully open

the Lid as steam will escape. Use the Rice Paddle provided or any other non-metal long-handle utensil to scoop and mix the rice well. Allow all steam to escape.

9. Keep Warm. When the cooking is completed, the Automatic Rice

Cooker will automatically go into the WARM Mode. At this time, the WARM Light will illuminate.

NOTE: Do not warm rice for more than 12 hours. It is recommended to consume the rice within a 12 hour period.

If the WARM Mode is not desired, simply unplug the Automatic Rice Cooker from the wall. Do not touch the Main Housing or Inner Pot until they have cooled completely.

10. Allow the Automatic Rice Cooker to cool completely before

cleaning.

11. When the Automatic Rice Cooker is not being used, please keep

it unplugged.
