Hints
•
Cooking times are approximate and are affected by size and temperature of food and the degree of cooking
desired. Water amounts may be adjusted.
•
If the steaming stops before the food is sufficiently cooked, add cold water to the inner bowl, replace food and
cover. Restart the cooking until the food is adequately cooked.
•
Accumulated steam allows foods to continue cooking even after the appliance has switched off. Remove food
promptly to avoid over-cooking.
•
Small items cook faster than larger ones. Food of uniform size will cook more evenly.
•
Altitude affects the temperature at which water boils and thus the cooking time. At high altitude longer cooking
times are needed.
Important
G
Small quantities of rice (4 or less cups) should be consumed immediately after stirring.
G
Do not keep rice warm for longer than two hours.
G
Do not interfere with the automatic switch mechanism by preventing it from switching to the warm cycle. Do
not immediately depress the switch to cook once it has begun the warm cycle.
G
Ensure that the area between the rice cooker and inner bowl is always clean and free from any rice particles
etc. This is important to ensure proper contact between the two.
G
Always use heat resistant gloves to remove the inner bowl from the appliance.
G
The rice must be thoroughly washed before using.
G
During cooking, certain varieties of rice may cause a build up of steam within the appliance resulting in some
spitting from under the lid. If this happens carefully lift the lid to allow excess steam to escape and then
replace.
G
On removing the rice from the inner bowl, a small amount of golden coloured rice may be noted on the base of
the bowl. This is normal, allow the bowl to cool, fill with warm soapy water and allow to soak which will loosen
the rice and make cleaning easier.
G
Do not reheat cooked rice in the rice cooker.
G
Do not lift the lid during the keep warm period.
G
If ingredients are to be added to cooked rice, they must be thoroughly cooked as appropriate, and the rice
should be consumed immediately.
G
We do not recommend the use of the Rice Cooker for cooking packet type savoury rice.
G
The use of sharp implements inside the bowl may damage the non-stick coating.
Cleaning
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth then polish
with a dry one.
Wash the inner bowl and lid in hot soapy water. A soft bristled brush may be used to remove any rice stuck to the
bowl. Dry the bowl thoroughly. Some staining of the inner bowl may occur with use.
