IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Other consumer safety information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING!
Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized
plug (one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock.
The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug
in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician
replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension
cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance.
Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled
on by children or accidentally tripped over.
Parts and features
Before first use
1.
Wash cooking pot and lid following the “Care and cleaning”
instructions in this Use and Care Guide. Dry thoroughly.
2.
Do not throw away the plastic rice-measurer that came
with your unit. This is an important tool in using your rice
cooker successfully and its size is standard in the rice
industry. One rice-measurer cup does not equal one
standard U.S. cup (plastic rice-measurer is 6 oz/180 ml or
approximately ¾ U.S. cup). When directed to use “1 cup”
for either rice or water, this means use one full, level rice-
measurer cup. Most rice package directions are listed in
terms of rice-measurer cups.
3.
The most important detail when cooking rice is the ratio of
rice to water. A good general ratio is two parts water to
one part rice (see illustration above). If the plastic rice-
measurer is lost or misplaced, measure BOTH rice and
water using a standard U.S. cup–your rice will turn out just
as well. To prevent overflow and/or overheating, do not
exceed the “MAX” line or go below the “MIN” line when
both rice and water are added to the cooking pot.
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Only cook in the
cooking pot. Never cook in the base.

WARNING
Information de sécurité pour
le consommateur
Cet appareil est conçu pour une utilisation domestique seulement.
AVERTISSEMENT !
Risque d’électrocution : Ce produit est doté
d’une fiche polarisée (lame plus large) pour réduire le risque
d’électrocution. Cette fiche s’insère dune seule manière dans une
prise avec mise à la terre. Ne pas transformer le dispositif de
sécurité de la fiche en modifiant celle-ci de quelconque façon ou
en utilisant un adaptateur. Si vous ne pouvez pas insérer com-
plètement la fiche dans la prise, inversez la fiche. Si elle refuse
toujours de s’insérer, faire remplacer la prise par un électricien.
La longueur du cordon installé sur cet appareil a été sélectionnée
afin de réduire les risques d’enchevêtrement ou de faux pas
causés par un fil trop long. L’utilisation d’une rallonge approuvée
est permise, si le cordon est trop court. Les caractéristiques
électriques de la rallonge doivent être équivalentes ou supérieures
aux caractéristiques de l’appareil. Prendre toutes les précautions
nécessaires pour installer la rallonge de manière à ne pas faire
courir sur le comptoir ou sur une table pour éviter qu’un enfant ne
tire sur le cordon ou trébuche accidentellement.

• The “cups” listed in chart refer to RICE-MEASURER cups.
• This chart is a guide only. Rice cooking times are approximate
and will vary. Brown rice takes longer to cook and can require
more water. Adding 1/2 rice-measurer cup (90 ml) of water
when cooking brown rice will yield a moister textrue. Do not

How to cook rice
1.
Add desired amount of uncooked rice and water to cooking pot.
Add rice first; then add water. Do not exceed “MAX” fill line.
Follow rice package directions for appropriate water/rice ratio.
NOTE:
You may need to adjust the amount of water to achieve
the desired texture. If the rice is too wet after cooking, or if
water overflows during cooking, use less water (up to 20%
less). If the rice is too firm after cooking, use a little more water.
2.
Carefully place cooking pot straight down in base. Make sure
cooking pot is securely seated into base by gently rotating the
pot left and right.
NOTE:
Ensure bottom of cooking pot is not bent or warped or
it will not conduct heat correctly.
3.
Place lid on cooking pot. Plug cord into outlet. The WARM
indicator light will come on BUT UNIT IS NOT COOKING.
4.
Push the cook switch DOWN to start cooking. The COOK
indicator light will come on.
5.
The rice will cook (cooking times will be approximately what
is listed on your rice package directions). The WARM indicator
light will come on when the rice is finished cooking. This fea-
ture will keep the rice warm until the unit is unplugged.
6.
Use the rice paddle to scoop out the cooked rice. When
finished, unplug cord from outlet.
A good ratio for cooking rice is 2 parts water to 1 part rice.
The cooking chart below may be useful for cooking white and
brown rice. For other rice blends, cooking time and rice/water
ratio will vary. Follow package directions for best results.
• Stir prepackaged, boxed rice mixes at least once during
cooking; otherwise, spices may stick to the bottom of the
cooking pot. For best results, unplug unit when finished
cooking this type of rice. Do not “keep warm.”
• Rinsing rice will sometimes increase bubbling during cooking.
When cooking a half pot or less of rice, minimize bubbling/
overflow by reducing water by about one-third.
• Allowing rice to “rest” for approximately 5–10 minutes after
cooking will yield better textured rice.
• Give rice a flavor boost by substituting an equal amount
chicken/beef/vegetable broth for water.
• There are many types of rice, each with different amounts of
water recommended for cooking. If the rice is too wet after
cooking, or if water overflows during cooking, use less water (up
to 20% less). If the rice is too firm after cooking, use a little more
water.
