Fuji IH Multifunction Rice Cooker by Yum Asia
5. HOW TO USE THE STEAM FUNCTION
You can use this appliance as a stand alone steamer (use 1.5-2 cups of water) or you can cook rice at
the same time as steaming food. If steaming whilst cooking rice, you would use the rice function for the
type of rice you are cooking and add the steaming basket to the inner bowl above the rice.
Here is a guide for estimated cooking different types of food on the ‘STEAM’ function:

IMPORTANT -
Do not steam food over 3.5cm thick.
If you would like to combine cooking rice with steaming,
2 cups of rice is the maximum
capacity
you can cook. Any more than this, there is a danger as the rice cooks, the
steaming basket will push into the lid and pop it open.
If cooking rice and steaming at the same time, you can open the lid (very carefully,
minding the steam that is released from the unit) to add the steaming basket part way
through the cooking cycle so the vegetables are not over-cooked.
