Measuring your rice is of extreme importance. Please do not discard the
"rice cooker" measuring cup that is provided with this unit. This "rice
cooker" measuring cup is the standard unit of measurement for this
product. When this manual instructs you to add 5 cups of rice and add
the corresponding amount of water to the "5" marking on the NNER
BOWL, the instructions are referring to the "rice cooker" measuring cup
that is included, not a standard U.S. measuring cup.
1. Measure the amount of rice you would like to cook. A 3/4 cup (180
ml) measuring cup is included with your rice cooker. The "rice
cooker" measuring cup makes approximately 2 1/4 cups of cooked
rice.
NOTE: The rice cooker is capable of cooking up to 5 full "rice cooker"
measuring cups of uncooked rice. Many varieties of rice can be used,
including basmati, wild rice, black rice, Arborio, risotto, saffron rice,
short and long grain. Do not use instant rice with this rice cooker.
Whole grains such as barley can also be prepared with the rice
cooker.
2. Wash the measured rice in a separate bowl until water is clear.
3. Place rice in the NNER POT and add the corresponding amount of water.
For example, if you are making 5 cups of uncooked rice, add water to the
"5" mark on the inner bowl.
NOTE: Brown rice will take longer to cook than white rice.
4. Set the NNER POT into the R CE COOKER.
Make sure that the NNER POT is in direct contact with the heating
plate by turning it slightly from left to right until it properly fits onto
the heating plate.
NOTE: f the outside of the NNER POT is wet when placed in the
rice cooker, this may cause a crackling noise until the unit heats up.
Also, this may damage the inner working of the appliance, so always
wipe the outside of the pot completely before use.
5. Cover with the L D.
HOW TO USE YOUR RICE COOKER
-E6-

• Rinse rice – Bran gives an unpleasant smell to cooked rice. Be sure to
rinse rice thoroughly. Rinsing with water effectively removes bran
quickly and thoroughly. NOTE: Some rice suppliers suggest not
rinsing rice because vitamins may be lost.
• After use, wash the NNER POT and L D in warm, soapy water.
• Rinse thoroughly and dry.
• DO NOT keep the rice cooker in operation:
When there is only a small amount of rice left in the POT.
When rice ladle is inside the rice cooker.
To warm up cold rice.
* DO NOT let water in the NNER POT boil dry.
WARNING: Do not operate this appliance uncovered – steam is
generated during use that could cause burns or other serious injury.
6. Plug the cord into a 120-volt AC electrical outlet. Switch the rice
cooker ON by pushing the button down. Make sure the COOK
indicator light is illuminated. Steaming will begin shortly.
7. The switch will pop up and the KEEP WARM indicator light will come
on when all the water in the R CE COOKER has evaporated.
NOTE: You may need to add more water and set the rice cooker to
COOK more than once depending on your own personal tastes.
8. After cooking, the KEEP WARM indicator light will illuminate. t is
important to let the rice stand for 10-15 minutes of steaming without
removing the L D. Carefully open the L D, taking care to avoid
escaping steam. Use the R CE LADLE, or other long handled utensil,
to mix the rice well to allow steam to escape. CAUTION: Steam will
escape. Do not touch the NNER POT or heating unit until they have
cooled.
9. Allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning.
10. Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet when not in use.

food from the NNER POT. DO NOT use any metal utensils.
2 To clean the HEAT NG UN T, lightly wipe the exterior with a damp
cloth or sponge. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
3 The NNER POT is coated with a non-stick coating to make clean up
easier. To clean, remove the NNER POT from the rice cooker and fill
with hot water from the tap. Let it sit for a while and then wash with
hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
4 The "rice cooker" measuring cup, rice ladle and Lid can be washed in
warm, soapy water. They are not dishwasher safe.
5 Make sure that the grains of rice do not stick to the heating plate in
the bottom of the heating unit. f this occurs, remove immediately. f
grains of rice are stuck onto the heating plate, a non-abrasive pad
can be used to remove it. Polish the area for good contact between
the heating plate, and the bottom of the NNER POT.
NOTE: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads or steel wool to
clean the R CE COOKER.
