corresponding level marked on the bowl e.g. to cook 3 cups of rice, place the washed rice into
the inner bowl and then fill it with water up to the 3 cup level marked on the inner bowl. You
may adjust the amount of water added for your own personal taste. For a softer rice add a little
more water, and for a less soft rice a little less water.
