Polarized Plug
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other);
follow the instructions below:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks 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 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 longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over
the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled by children or
tripped over unintentionally.
DO NOT DRAPE CORD!
KEEP AWAY
FROM CHILDREN!

10-30 minutes as needed, opening the lid and
stirring periodically to release excess moisture.
Caution:

water for a favorite
meat or vegetable broth
or stock. The ratio of
broth/stock to rice will
be the same as water
to rice.

check that it is dry and
free of debris. Adding
the inner pot when

cooker.
Note:
· Food can be steamed
at any time while rice
cooks. However, for best
results, food should be
steamed towards the
end of the rice cooking
cycle. This will allow
for rice and steamed
food to be ready at
the same time. See the
"Rice/Grain & Water
Measurement Tables"
on pages 8-9.

Warm mode for more
than 12 hours.

· These steaming charts
are for reference only.
Actual cooking times
may vary.
Helpful
Hints:
Since most vegetables
only absorb a small
amount of water, there
is no need to increase
the amount of water
with a larger serving of
vegetables.
To ensure meat tastes
its best and to prevent
food-borne illness,
check that the meat is
completely cooked prior
to serving. If the meat
is still uncooked, simply
add more water to the
inner pot and repeat the
steaming process until
the meat is adequately
cooked.
Helpful
Hints:
Smaller foods may
be placed on a heat
resistant dish and then
placed onto the steam
tray. Parchment paper
or aluminum foil may
be used as well. Place
the paper foil in the
center of the steam tray
and ensure it does not
create a seal along the
bottom of the steam
tray. For best results,
it is recommended to
puncture small holes in
the paper/foil.
For suggested steaming
times and water
amounts, see the “Meat
& Vegetable Steaming
Tables” on the next
page.
