6 Plug the cord into a 120 Volt AC electrical outlet. Switch the rice
cooker ON by pushing the button down. Make sure the COOK
indicator light is illuminated. Steaming will begin shortly.
7 The switch will pop up and the KEEP WARM indicator light will come
on when all the water in the RICE COOKER has evaporated. NOTE: You may
need to add more water and set the rice cooker to COOK more
than once depending on your own personal tastes.
8 After cooking, the KEEP WARM indicator light will illuminate. For best
results, let the rice stand for 10-15 minutes of steaming without removing the
LID. Carefully open the LID, taking care to avoid escaping steam. Use the
RICE LADLE, or other long handled utensil, to mix the rice well to allow
steam to escape.
Do Not Use Metal Utensils.
CAUTION: Steam will escape. Do not touch the INNER POT or heating unit
until they have cooled.
9 Allow the appliance to cool completely and unplug before cleaning.
10 Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet when not in use.
Cooking HINTS
• Rinse rice - Bran gives an unpleasant smell to cooked rice. Be sure to
rinse rice thoroughly. Rinsing with water effectively removes bran
quickly and thoroughly.
NOTE: Some rice suppliers suggest not rinsing rice because vitamins
may be lost.
• After use, wash the INNER POT and LID in warm, soapy water.
• Rinse thoroughly and dry.
• Do not keep the rice cooker in operation:
- When there is only a small amount of rice left in the POT.
- When rice ladle is inside the rice cooker.
- To warm up cold rice.
