cup and the spatula in warm, soapy water.
Rinse and dry thoroughly. Wipe the base
with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
Do not use harsh detergents or abrasive
cleaners on any parts of the appliance.
Never immerse the base in water or any

HOW TO COOK RICE:
Before each use, make sure that the
outside of the rice bowl is clean and dry
and that the heat sensor in the centre,
on the inside of the base, is clean, dry
and cool. Handle the rice bowl carefully.
Scratching or denting the bowl may result
in unsatisfactory performance.
1. Measure rice and water and place evenly
in rice bowl. NEVER PUT ANY LIQUID
INTO THE BASE. The lid has to be used
during the entire preparation time.
NOTE: There are differing opinions about
whether rice should be washed before
cooking. Drier fluffier rice is obtained by
washing rice first.
2. Place rice bowl in base and lid on rice
bowl. Make sure the bowl is placed
properly sat onto the base.
3. Plug cord into a 230 Volt AC outlet. The
power is now on and remain on while

cooking. At the end of the cooking
phase, it automatically switches to the
"keep warm" function. After about 20-35
minutes the rice will be cooked. Gently
stir the rice using the spatula provided.
The rice is now ready to serve.
5. If the rice is to be kept warm leave the
rice cooker plugged in. Reposition the
lid after having fluffed the rice.
6. Unplug the rice cooker before removing
6
lidand rice bowl from the base.
NOTE: Rice may be kept warm for up to 5
hours. To stop the automatic keep warm
