NOTE: For the best results, before each
use make sure that:
• The steam vent is in place and is not
damaged.
• The sealing ring of the inner lid is in
place and is not damaged.
• The exterior of cooking pot and the
surface of the cooking plate is clean
and dry.
• The outer lid is closed correctly before
cooking.
Warning: Improper use may result in
scalding injuries.
1. Make sure inner lid and steam vent are
installed correctly.
• If you cook without steam vent in place, hot
liquids will spill.
Steam Vent
2. Use the supplied measuring cup and fill
flush with rice and determine number of
cups required, wash/rinse rice in a separate
bowl to remove starch. Ensure rice has been
thoroughly rinsed with cold water before
cooking to prevent rice grains from sticking to
the cooking pot.
• One cup of rice is about 160 mL (about 150 g).
• To prevent scuffing, do not wash rice in the
cooking pot. Always wash it in another bowl
and transfer to cooking pot.
3. Place the washed rice into the cooking pot
and fill with water to match the corresponding
water level marking for number of cups of
rice used. Always ensure rice is spread evenly
across the bottom of the Cooking Pot and not
heaped to one side.
• The scale is for reference only. The water
quantity can be increased or decreased
reasonably according to personal preference.
Never exceed the highest Water Level.
