Note:
· Cooking times are approximate. Altitude, humidity and outside temperature will
affect cooking times.
· Do not place more than 10 cups of uncooked white or brown rice into this
appliance at one time. The maximum capacity of this unit is 10 cups of uncooked rice
which yields 20 cups of cooked rice.
· Rinse grains before placing into the inner pot to remove excess bran and starch. This
will reduce the chance of rice browning and sticking to the bottom of the inner pot.

Note:
· When cooking barley, you must use the Delay Timer for 4 hours in combination with
the Brown Rice function. The additional soaking time will ensure optimal flavor and
texture.
· For best results when cooking barley or bulgur, let both grains sit on Keep Warm for
10 minutes before serving.
· If softer grains are desired, add an additional 1/2 cup of water or liquid.
· The Flash Rice function will only properly cook white rice. All other grains including
brown rice should not be cooked using the Flash Rice function.
