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. - Page 8 Operating Instructions 5. Replace the Glass Lid.

- Page 9 Long Grain Brown Rice Cooking Chart Allow about 50 to 80 minutes (depending on the quantity being cooked) to cook brown rice. The Russell Hobbs® Automatic Rice Cooker automatically switches from COOK Mode to ON/WARM Mode when all the liquid evaporates from the Inner Pot. However, for fluffy rice, allow rice to stand for approximately 10 minutes, covered, on WARM before serving.

Page 10: Cooking Rice
Cooking Rice GENERAL INFORMATION Rice is grown on marshy land that floods easily. It does not need to be milled or ground; only the outer husks must be removed, leaving behind what is known as brown or whole rice, the most nutritious of rices. - Page 11 Why Rice? Grains (including rice) are finally getting the attention they deserve as they move into the nutritional spotlight. The new USDA dietary recommendations highlight grains as an essential part of a healthy, whole foods diet. With their impressive fiber, complex carbohydrates and protein profiles, they are, without a doubt, some of Mother Nature’s most perfect foods.

Steaming Food GENERAL INFORMATION Keep the Glass Lid on while cooking or steaming food, unless the recipe or chart specially calls for removing it. By removing the Glass Lid unnecessarily, you lose steam and valuable time. If you must remove it to stir or to add an ingredient, have the Rice Paddle or ingredient ready, add it, stir quickly and just as quickly replace the Lid. -
