Wash the rice thoroughly.
Use a separate container to wash the rice to avoid damaging the non-stick coating of the inner pot.
3
Put the pre-washed rice in the inner pot.
4
Add water to the level indicated on the scale inside the inner pot that corresponds to the
number of cups of rice used. Then smooth the rice surface.
For instance, if you cook 4 cups of rice, add water up to the 4-cup level indicated on the scale.
Note: Some types of rice require more water to be cooked, e.g. parboiled rice. If the water in the inner
pot exceeds the next level above the level indicated for the number of cups of rice used, bubbles or water
may come out of the steam vent cap. If you want to cook a type of rice that requires more water, do not
cook more than 2-8 cups for HD4738/HD4728, 2-6 cups for HD4733 or 1-3 cups for HD4723 to
prevent the inner pot from overflowing.

different types of rice and your own preference.

Press the release lever to open the lid.

Put the inner pot in the rice cooker. Check if the inner pot is in proper contact with the
heating element (Fig. 7).
Make sure that the outside of the inner pot is dry and clean and that there is no foreign residue on
the heating element or the magnetic switch.

Close the lid of the rice cooker, put the plug in the wall socket and switch on the mains.

HD4738/HD4733: Set the function selection switch to RICE (Fig. 9).
,
HD4738/HD4733: The rice light goes on (Fig. 10).
9
Press the control lever down to start the cooking process (Fig. 11).
If you fail to press down the control lever, the rice cooker automatically switches to the keep-warm
mode. The cook light/rice light goes out and the warm light goes on.
,
When the cooking process is finished, the cook light/rice light goes out and the warm light
goes on to indicate that the rice cooker has automatically switched to the keep-warm
mode (Fig. 12).
10
Open the lid and stir the rice to loosen it (Fig. 13).
For the best results, do this just after the rice cooker has switched to keep-warm mode. Then close
the lid firmly. Stirring the rice allows excess steam to escape. This gives fluffier rice.
11
To end the cooking process or keep-warm mode, pull up the control lever, switch off the
mains and remove the mains plug from the wall socket (Fig. 14).
