• BROWN RICE requires a much longer cooking cycle than other rice
varieties due to the extra bran layers on the grains. The BROWN RICE
function on this cooker allows extra time and adjusted heat settings in
order to cook the rice properly. If it appears the cooker is not heating up
immediately on the BROWN RICE setting, this is due to a low-heat soak
cycle that proceeds the cooking cycle to produce better BROWN RICE
results.
• Rice should not be left in the cooker on KEEP WARM for more than 12 hours.
• Recommended timer pre-setting is no more than 12 hours to avoid food

• To add more flavor to rice, try substituting a favorite meat or vegetable
broth or stock. The ratio of broth/stock to rice will be the same as water to
