OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
USING THE RICE COOKING BOWL TO
STEAM RICE
Use the Rice Cooking Bowl to prepare light and fluffy rice: cook
brown or white rice, and even wild rice.
1. Add the rice and water amounts listed on the RICE STEAMING
CHART to the Rice Cooking Bowl. The amount of water will be
less than listed on the rice package because the Steamer will
retain moisture.
2. Place the Rice Cooking Bowl into the
FIRST (1) Steamer Basket. Add NO
MORE THAN 1 cup of rice + the
amount of water and other ingredients
suggested on the RICE STEAMING
CHART. The amount of water will
vary depending on the type of
rice or grain.
3. Place the Steamer Basket securely in
steaming position over the Drip Tray
on the Steamer Base; then add the Lid. (See Figure 8)
4. Turn the Timer Control Dial clockwise to select the appropriate
cooking time suggested on the RICE STEAMING CHART follow-
ing. The Power Indicator Light will illuminate as steaming
begins.
WARNING: When cooking rice for more than 1 hour, check the
Water Level Lens periodically. Since the Food Steamer cannot
operate properly when the water level is too low, you must
refill while steaming. Use a spouted vessel and add water
through either Water Fill Hole.
5. Add more water to the Steamer Base as necessary.
6. When the steaming time is reached, the Steamer will turn itself
OFF. The Indicator Light will turn off and the Steamer will beep
as an alert.
7. Use protective oven mitts to remove the Lid. Always tilt Lid
away from your face when removing. If excess liquid remains
in the Rice Cooking Bowl after rice is done, then use a spoon or
ladle to remove the excess water, a little at a time. Replace the
Lid and set the Timer Control Dial to "5" to allow the Steamer
to continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes.
