two bowls of cooked rice. Do not cook rice more than indicated max mark inside the pot.

washing to avoid damage to the non-stick coating of the cooking pan.
3. Add water according to the markings inside the pot
Pour the pre-washed rice into the inner pot. Add water according to the markings indicated
inside the pot that corresponds to the cup of plain rice that are poured, then smooth the rice
surface. The level marked inside the pot is just an indication; you can always adjust the
water level for different types of rice and your own preferences.
4. Check to ensure that the pot is in good condition
Before connecting the power, ensure the outside of the pot is dry and clean and that no
foreign matter is on the heating plate or on the magnetic switch. Close the lid firmly until it

TIPS:
1. To avoid rice from sticking at the base, put half teaspoon of cooking oil over the base. This
will reduce the chances of rice crust formation on the base.

increase or decrease the water quantity as per your taste and preference. Cooking time will
also depend on the supply voltage.

foreign matter should be allowed to remain between the bottom of the
