Note: There are different opinions about whether the rice should be washed before
cooking or not. Those in favour argue that this washes away the starch content and
ensures non-sticky grains. Those against, feel valuable soluble vitamins and minerals are
lost. Drier, fluffier rice is obtained by washing before cooking.
• Measure rice and water and place evenly into the rice bowl. (See Rice cooking chart)
Never put any liquid into the base.
• Place the rice bowl into the base and make sure that the bowl is properly sat unto the
base. Close by placing the lid.
• Plug cord into a 220-240V AC outlet. Depress the switch and the red light will glow.
Cook switch will not stay down unless the rice bowl is placed in the right way: this is
a safety feature of this rice cooker.
• Wait 20 minutes for the rice to finish cooking. Fluff the rice with the spatula.
• Unplug the rice cooker before removing the lid and rice bowl from the base.
• If the rice is to be kept warm, leave the rice cooker plugged-in and reposition the lid
after fluffing.
• If using unwashed rice, a thin layer of starch may form at the bottom of the rice bowl:
this is quite normal and can be mixed in with the rice when fluffing as it does not
affect the taste or texture.
