Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from
electrical shock. The appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and a 3-prong
grounding-type plug to fit the proper grounding-type receptacle. The appliance has
a plug that looks like figure (A).
Short Cord Instructions
1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.
3. If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
a.) The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
b.) The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over
the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over unintentionally.
c.) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounding 3-wire cord.

Rice is too dry/hard after cooking.
· If your rice is dry or hard/chewy when the
cooker switches to Warm, additional water and
cooking time will soften the rice. Depending on
how dry your rice is, add ½ to 1 cup of water
using the provided large 900mL measuring
cup and stir thoroughly. Place the lid on and
initiate another cooking cycle. When the
cooker switches to Warm, remove the lid and
stir the rice to check the consistency. Repeat as
necessary until rice is soft and moist.
Rice is too moist/soggy after cooking.
· If your rice is still too moist or soggy when
the cooker switches to Warm, use the serving
spatula to stir the rice. This will redistribute
the bottom (moist) part of the rice as well as
release excess moisture. Place the lid on and
allow the rice to remain on Warm for 10-30
minutes as needed, removing the lid and
stirring periodically to release excess moisture.
Note:
· We recommend hand
washing the inner pot
with warm, soapy water
to lengthen its lifespan
and avoid damage
over time. If washing in
a dishwasher, a slight
discoloration to the
inner pot may occur.
This is cosmetic and will
not negatively aect
performance.
· Any other servicing
should be performed by
Aroma®Housewares.
Note:
· Because rice varieties
may vary in their make-
up, results may dier.
Note:
· Before placing the inner
pot into the cooker,
check that the inner pot
is dry and free of debris.
Adding the inner pot
when wet may damage
the cooker.
· Food should not be left
in the cooker on Warm
for more than 12 hours.
Caution:
The rice cooker will not
switch to Warm until all
liquid has evaporated.
Follow your recipe
carefully and do not
leave the rice cooker
unattended.

Note:
· Rinse rice before placing into the inner pot to remove excess bran and starch. This will
reduce the chance of rice browning and sticking to the bottom of the inner pot.
· Cooking times are approximate. Altitude, humidity, and external temperature will aect
cooking time.
· The minimum amount of rice this unit can prepare is 10 cups of uncooked rice. To
prevent damaging the cooker, do not attempt to cook less than 10 cups of uncooked
white or brown rice.
· Brown rice takes longer to cook and requires more water than white rice due to the
extra bran layers on the grains. The water lines in the inner pot are meant for white
rice only. Please see the chart above for brown rice to water ratios.
·Do not place more than 30 cups of uncooked rice (20 cups of brown rice) into this
appliance at one time. The maximum capacity of this unit is 30 cups of uncooked rice
(20 cups of brown rice) which yields 60 cups of cooked rice (40 cups of brown rice).
