PREPARATION
1. Sit the appliance on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, near a power socket.
2. Don't use the appliance near or below curtains, shelves, cupboards, or anything else likely to be
damaged by the escaping steam.
3. Have oven gloves (or a cloth) to hand, and a heat-resistant mat or dinner plate to put the bowl on
after cooking.
4. Put the bowl inside the cooker.
COOKING
1. Use the measuring cup to put the rice into the bowl. Fill the measuring cup so that it is level and not
heaped (fig. A).
2. Fill the bowl with water up to the number corresponding to the number of cups of rice used.
3. Give the bowl quarter of a turn each way, to ensure the bottom of the bowl makes good contact with
the element.
4. Close the lid and press down until it clicks. Always keep the lid closed and latched when cooking.
Put the plug into the power socket. Move the on/off switch to I. Move the switch to the DOWN
5.
position. The O light will come on.
6. When the rice is cooked, the switch will move to the KEEP WARM position. The O light will go out,
and the N light will come on.
7. Let the rice rest for about 10 minutes, then unplug the cooker.
8. Press the lid release button to open the lid. Be aware of escaping steam and use an oven glove or
similar for protection.
9. Lift out the bowl and set it down on a heat-resistant mat or dinner plate.
10. Use the spatula to turn and mix the rice, to let all the steam escape.
• Sometimes the layer of rice in contact with the bowl will form a crust.
• If you don't want it you can remove it with the spatula after you've served the rice.
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS
• If you add any additional ingredients (raisins, fruit, nuts, etc.), you should reduce the amount of rice
to compensate for the amount of water they'll absorb.
• Raisins and dried fruit will absorb as much water as rice, so put them into the measuring cup along
with the rice.
• Nuts won't generally absorb much water, so you can normally add them after you've measured the
rice.
USING THE COOKER AS A STEAMER
1. Add 400 ml of cold water to the bowl.
2. Put the basket on top of the bowl and put the food into the basket.
3. For uniform cooking, cut all pieces of food to roughly the same size.
4. For peas, or anything that'll break up or drop into the water, make a parcel with aluminium foil.
5. Take care when removing the parcel – wear oven gloves and use plastic tongs/spoons.
6. Close the lid and press down until it clicks. Always keep the lid closed and latched when cooking.
7. Operate the cooker the same way you would when cooking rice.
8. Follow the steaming times.
9. Don't leave food in the cooker after steaming becasue it will become soggy.
