Note:
The cooking time for each mode may vary slightly as it
is calculated automatically based on the amount of rice
andwater added.
Delayed Start
This function allows you to postpone the start-up time and finish the
cooking after the time you set. The delayed start time thus includesthe
cooking itself.
1. Place rice or food you want to prepare into the cooking pot. Close the
cover.
2. Insert the plug of the power cord into the mains socket. You will hear
asound alert and the control panel will light up.
3. Press the Menu button repeatedly to select one of thepreset cooking
modes. The selected mode will start blinking.
4. Press the Preset button, and using the + and– buttons, set the
delay start time after which the rice cooker will start. The default
delayed start time is 4 hours. You can set the delayed start time from
2 to 24 hours.
5. Press the Start button. At the same time, the countdown of the set
time will start.
6. Depending on the selected mode and the set cooking time and
delayed start time, the rice cooker will start at acertain point.
If you need to cancel the delay start, press the Cancel button.
Do not use this function when using fresh ingredients (e.g. milk, eggs,
etc.). It may lead to their deterioration.
In summer months, it is recommended to set the delay start time to
amaximum of 8 hours to avoid the deterioration of the used ingredients.
Keep Warm Function
The Keep Warm function is available for all modes and is automatically
activated when cooking is completed. The elapsed time since switching to
the Keep Warm mode is displayed on the screen.
This mode ensures that the prepared dish remains warm, so it periodically
reheats the food to the optimal temperature.
If you need to switch it on manually, press the Warm/Cancel button and
the rice cooker will start.
The maximum Keep Warm time is 12 hours. After that, the rice cooker
turns off.
If you need to cancel the temperature retention mode, press the Warm/
Cancel button again.
Rice Cooking Tips
• When preparing rice, it is necessary to choose the correct ratio of rice
to water. The recommended rice to water ratio is written on the rice
package and is therefore important to follow. The resulting texture
andtaste depend on several factors, namely the freshness of the
rice, storage conditions, brand, origin and, last but not least, personal
preferences.
• The basic ratio of rice to water is 1 : 1.1. Round grain rice usually
requires more water. The water temperature should be between 5 and
35 °C. Use tapwater. Do not use distilled or filtered water.
• Always use the same measuring cup when measuring rice andwater.
• This cooker is designed to prepare amaximum of 3 cups of rice.
• When measuring water, you can also use lines on the inner wall of the
cooker. Here you will find the lines for making rice and porridge.
