Using the Rice Cooker
The inner bowl features measurement lines inside as a guide. The cup provided is designed to measure
the rice and water.
1. Measure the desired amount of rice using the measuring cup supplied.
Note: One cup of rice will produce approximately two cups of cooked rice.
2. Rinse the rice in a sieve under running water to remove excess bran and starch.
3. Pour the rice into the inner bowl. To achieve evenly
cooked rice, spread evenly around the bowl.
4. Add the correct amount of water by using the
measuring cup, or by filling the inner bowl to the
appropriate level.
Note: Slightly reduce the amount of
water for firmer rice, and increase
the amount for softer rice.
