Rice Cooker

Check that no drop of water, dust or grain of rice remains between the bottom of the pot and the heating plate: these foreign bodies degrade performance and can burn parts. Also check that the pot is not tilted: its bottom must touch the heating plate over its entire surface.

Allow about 1.5 cups of water per 1 cup of rice. The markings on the left of the pot are graduated in litres, those on the right in cups: pour water up to the mark matching the quantity of rice. These marks remain indicative, as different varieties of rice do not absorb water in the same way.

No. Wash the rice in a separate container, then pour it into the pot. Washing it in the pot risks deforming it from impacts, which harms the cooker's performance.

The black switch releases automatically when cooking finishes and the cooker switches to keep-warm mode: the corresponding indicator light comes back on. Leave the lid in place for another 10 minutes before serving.

No preheating is needed. Once cooking is finished, the cooker automatically switches to keep-warm mode and keeps the rice between 60°C and 80°C. If you do not want keep-warm mode, set the O/I switch to the O position.

Set the O/I switch to the O position, then unplug the appliance. As long as the cord is plugged in and the switch is on I, the cooker remains powered and continues keeping food warm.

Never immerse the cooker in water: clean it with a soft, damp cloth. The pot, however, can be washed with water. Keep the bottom of the pot and the heating plate perfectly clean.
