10 Open the lid and stir the rice to loosen it (fig. 8).
For the best results, do this just after the rice cooker has switched to keep-warm mode.Then close
the lid firmly. Stirring the rice allows excess steam to escape.This will give fluffier rice.

mode (fig. 9).
The rice cooker has a backup memory that retains the last selected mode, function and settings in
case of a power failure.The cooking process or the timer function will resume within 2 hours after
the power supply is restored.
Always press the OFF button before you unplug the rice cooker, as otherwise the last selected
mode, function and settings will resume when the rice cooker is plugged in again.
