NOTE – for one cup of brown rice use the measuring cup to measure 1.5 cups of water for 1 cup of uncooked brown
rice. For the other amounts you can use the inner bowl markings.
Cooking SUSHI rice or other SHORT GRAIN rice
The marks on the inner bowl are for long grain white rice, if you are cooking short grain rice, like sushi, you need to
reduce the water you add by 4-5mm below the line on the inner bowl (this applies to white or brown short grain rice).
Make sure you select the ‘SHORT GRAIN’ setting to cook.

rice. For the other amounts you can use the inner bowl markings. To cook sticky rice, use the ‘SHORT GRAIN’ setting.
3.4 HOW TO USE THE KEEP WARM FUNCTION
Once a cooking cycle has finished, the appliance will automatically switch to ‘KEEP WARM’.
You can activate ‘KEEP WARM’ when the appliance is on stand-by (i.e. when no menu functions have been selected) by
pressing the ‘KEEP WARM’ button. The button will then light up and a count-up clock will appear on the display for your
reference. The ‘KEEP WARM’ function can be used for 24 hours but you might find the rice ruins after 15 hours use.
To cancel ‘KEEP WARM’, press the ‘KEEP WARM’ button again (it doubles as the ‘CANCEL’ button). The appliance will
then switch to stand-by mode.
3.5 HOW TO USE THE OTHER COOKING FUNCTIONS
3.5.1 PORRIDGE
This menu setting can be used for Asian rice porridge or oatmeal porridge. For recipes, see page 14.
The default cooking time for the ‘PORRIDGE’ setting is 1.5 hours. You can adjust this up to 4 hours using the ‘Hr’ button
or adjust in 10 minute intervals using the ‘Min’ button once you have selected the ‘PORRIDGE’ setting and it is blinking
on the display.
Once the cooking cycle is complete, the appliance will make a sound and will automatically switch to ‘KEEP WARM’.
