Rice cooking
The cooking time given in the tables above is a rice cooking time
guide.
• Place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work
surface away from water splashes and any other sources of
heat.
• Pour the required quantity of rice into the bowl using the
measuring cup provided. Then fill with cold water up to the
corresponding “CUP” mark printed in the bowl (See cooking
guide above) –
Fig.7.
Note: Always add the rice first otherwise you will have too
much water.
• Close the lid.
• Check that the appliance is plugged in. Press downwards on
the control switch, the red cooking indicator illuminates
showing that cooking has begun –
Fig.8.
• When cooking finished, it will turn to keep warm automatically,
the “KEEP WARM” indicator light is on –
Fig.9 .
• After each use empty and clean the condensation collector.
Some recommendations
for best results when cooking rice
• Measure the rice and rinse it thoroughly under running water
in a sieve for a long time (except for risotto rice which should
not be rinsed). Then place the rice in the bowl first and fill the
corresponding quantity of water.
• Make sure that the rice is well distributed in the bowl to allow
even cooking.
The rice cooker itself
determines the exact
cooking time depending
on the quantity of
water and ingredients
placed in the bowl (see
cooking table above for
a guide to timing).
When all of the water
has been absorbed by
the rice, the appliance
stops the cooking
process automatically
and enters into the
“KEEP WARM” mode
(the green “KEEP
WARM” indicator light
comes on).
