Note: Use only the cooking bowl provided with this appliance to cook rice. 3. Using the water level markings on the inside of the cooking bowl as a guide, add the amount of water that matches the number of measures of rice to be cooked. For example, if preparing 4 measures of rice, add water to 4 cup water level mark. Adding too much water may make the appliance boil over. 4. Add butter or oil and desired seasonings. Note: The first time you prepare rice use the handy RICe CookIng ChART included in the Use and Care on pages 7 and 10.

0 HelpFUl HiNtS • Although the rice measuring cup holds about 5 ounces of uncooked rice; the cooked rice is given in 8-ounce cup measures. • kosher salt has no impurities and dissolves faster than table salt. If using kosher salt, you may find you want to add a little more than if using table salt. Use about ¾ tsp. kosher salt to each cup of uncooked rice. • White rice should be kept in an airtight container in a cool dark place. • Brown rice has a limited shelf life; store it for no more than a month before using. • For additional flavor, try using broth, stock or reconstituted bouillon in place of water. If you do, no additional salt may be necessary. care and cleaning This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel. • Unplug the unit before cleaning and let it cool completely. • never immerse the unit in water or other liquid. • Wash the cooking bowl, lid, serving scoop and rice measuring cup in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher. do not use abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads-they may scratch the nonstick surface or could result in poor contact with the heating plate. Helpful tips: Since the rice cooking bowl has a nonstick coating, try this method: add hot, soapy water and allow the bowl to stand for several minutes. This releases any food particles and with just a wipe of a sponge or plastic scrubber the bowl is perfectly clean. • Wipe the interior of the unit with a dry cloth. Clean the outside surface with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. • If water accidentally gets into the switch area or onto the heating plate, allow to dry thoroughly before using the rice cooker. veGetaBle amoUNt pRepaRatioN time SUGGeStioNS poUltRy chicken breasts 1½ lbs.
