• A small amount of vegetable oil in the rice can help separate grains.
• Brown or wild rice may require additional water.
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.
