Before Cooking Rice

1
Measure the rice.
Be sure to use the supplied measuring cup.
A level filling of rice in the supplied measuring
cup is approximately 0.18 L.
Tips
● Use the supplied measuring cup for rinse-free rice
as well.

measurement measurement
Note
● Always use the specified volume of rice (see
"Specifications" on P.53). Otherwise rice may
not be cooked properly.
If other ingredients are to be added to the rice,
see P.15.
● Do not mix in amaranth or other small grains
that may cause clogging. Doing so may cause a
clogged pressure adjusting holes or safety valve,
which may lead to steam leaks or boiling over,
resulting in burns or other injuries.
2
Rinse the rice. (Rice can be
rinsed in the inner pot.)
For rinse-free rice, see P.14.
Note
● Do not use hot water (over 35°C) to rinse the rice
or when adding water. It may prevent the rice
from cooking properly.
3
Adjust the water level.
Place the inner pot on a level surface and
adjust the water level to the appropriate line
of the corresponding scale on the inside of
the pot.

Tips
● The water level should be selected according
to the type of rice and the selected cooking
menu, but can be fine-adjusted to your personal
preference. (See the guidelines on P.14.)
When cooking 2
cups of white rice,
adjust the water
level to line "2" on
the "Plain" scale.

Wipe off any water drops and
grains of rice and check for
clogging of the inner lid.

Note
● Be sure to remove any cooked rice or grains of rice
adhering to the upper casing, around the hook catch,
and to the inner lid.
Any rice on the inner lid can prevent the lid from
closing, allow steam to leak out during cooking, or
enable the lid to open and the contents to spray out,
resulting in burns or other injury. (See P.34 and
35.)
