Tips on cooking rice:
Measure rice and water with the measuring cup provided.
The measuring cup used for measuring rice holds only 170 grams. It is not a standard Australian
cup size.
Ensure the rice in the measuring cup is level.
Spread rice in the inner bowl evenly, do not lump it in one spot/side.
The rice cooker will switch to keep warm after the rice has been cooked. It is best to serve the
rice quickly because it might dry out too much if left in the pot on the warm setting for too
long.
Be sure not to wash rice in inner pot as much as possible so as not to scratch the surface.
For dry, hard, multigrain please soak in hot water for 2-3 hours before cooking.
Fill the washed rice in inner pot and add appropriate amount of water.
When cooking rice, 1 cup of rice matches 1.1 cups of water, when cooking congee 1 cup of rice
matches 10 cups of water, according to personal taste and experience, proper adjustment of
the ratios is allowed, however, do not fill water over the maximum water level mark.

Recommended proportions:
Basmati Rice – 2 cups rice, 2.5 cups water
Jasmine Rice – 2 cups rice, 2.75 cups water
White Rice – 2 cups rice, 2.75 cups water
Brown Rice – 2 cups rice, 3 cups water
Sushi Rice – 2 cups rice, 2.5 cups water *plus other ingredients
Arborio Rice – 2 cups rice, 3 cups water
Please Note: It is not recommended to cook a large amount of arborio or risotto rice in this
appliance. This type of rice contains high levels of starches. Starch and water may overspill
through the steam vent and splash onto the top cover of the appliance.
*Making sushi rice – use the recommended proportions of 2 cups rice and 2.5 cups water. Cook
until the timer reaches zero. Open the rice cooker lid and keep the appliance on keep warm
mode. Stir in ¼ cup rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sugar and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly then
rest in the warmed pot for ten minutes.
Making congee – use a long grain white rice and measure 1 cup rice and 8 cups water.
Making soup – add water or broth liquids only, then add the meats, vegetables and spices.
Never use thickened liquids such as tomato soup base, chowder or cheesy soup.
This appliance is designed to make thin soups such as Vietnamese Pho, because of the steam
vent.
Using thickened liquids may damage the appliance.
Using the steam tray:
Use the steam tray inside the rice cooker to steam solid food such as vegetables. Other ideal
foods to be steamed include dim-sims, dumplings, wontons, chicken and fish. They can be
cooked at the same time as your rice to save time and counter space.
Do not try to cook the maximum amount of rice when cooking rice as well as using the
steaming tray. The rice will double in size when cooked and there will not be enough room for
the maximum amount of cooked rice as well as the steamer tray.
Insert the steaming tray towards the end of a rice cooking cycle and take it out when the foods
are cooked. Be careful of the hot steam and wear oven mitts to protect your hands.

Hard boiled eggs can be prepared by using the steaming tray. Add water inside the inner pot.
Place the steaming basket inside the inner pot, add raw eggs to the steaming basket. The
eggs will take 20 – 25 minutes depending on how you like them cooked.
Press the “Cooking Program” button and then use the “Minute” and “Hour” buttons to change
the cooking time.
Press the “Start” button to begin cooking.
