RICE COOKING

When cooking rice, use the RICE/GRAINS function. This is
suitable for all types of rice, including white and/or brown
rice.
The RICE/GRAINS function cooks under pressure for faster
cooking.
Capacity: Since rice expands during cooking, do not fill
Cooking Pot above the 1/2 mark when pressure cooking
rice.
USING THE RICE/GRAINS FUNCTION
Place the Cooker on a flat, level surface.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug the Cooker into a
wall outlet. The Cooker will beep, and the Display Screen will
illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
1. Measure the desired quantity of rice.
Note: 1 cup uncooked white rice = 2 cups of cooked white
rice (approximately). 1 cup uncooked brown rice = 2 cups
cooked brown rice (approximately).
2. Place the measured rice in a strainer and wash rice thoroughly
under cold water. Wash until the water runs clear. This
removes excess starch which helps to achieve fluffier rice, and
prevents rice grains sticking to the Cooking Pot. Rinsing the
rice reduces the build-up of starchy water and bubbles that
sometimes form around the Valve Cover and Lid, which can
cause spitting from the Steam Release Valve.
3. Ensure the Cooking Pot is clean and dry before placing it
inside the Heating Base.
4. Place the washed rice in the Cooking Pot. Add the quantity
of water needed for your recipe (Standard ratio -- 1 cup of
uncooked rice : 1.5 cups of water). Ensure that a minimum
of 8oz of liquid is placed inside the removable Cooking Pot.
5. Place the Lid on and lock by rotating lid handle
counterclockwise to the LOCKED
position.

USING THE RICE/GRAINS FUNCTION (CONT.)
6. Rotate the Steal Release Dial to the "Seal"
7. Press the RICE/GRAINS button and adjust the time and
pressure as needed.
Note: See the Cooking Guide on page E25 to find the
possible time and pressure adjustments.
8. Once you have made the desired adjustments, if any, press
START/STOP.
9. The Cooker needs to gain pressure before pressure cooking
can begin. When the Cooker is gaining pressure, "HEAt"
will appear on the Display Screen and the time will not
count down. The Status Bar will illuminate to track the
pressurization progress before cooking will begin. When
pressure has been reached, "HEAt" will disappear on the
Display Screen, and the time will begin to count down.
10. After the set cooking time has elapsed, the Cooker will
beep and will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM
setting. The Display Screen will therefore change from the
cook time to a new timer that will count up to 4:00 (4
hours) or until you press the START/STOP button. After 4
hours in the KEEP WARM setting, the Cooker will turn off.
TIPS:
1. Do not keep rice in the pot for extended periods of time on
the KEEP WARM setting, as the rice will become dry and
the quality will deteriorate. Use the supplied plastic spoon
to stir and serve the rice. Do not use metal utensils, as these
may scratch the non-stick coating.
2. As rice grains can be delicate, at the end of cooking wait
until the pressure releases naturally (see page E20). Do not
use the Quick Pressure Release Method.
3. Standard ratio for cooking rice -- 1 cup of uncooked rice :
1.5 cups of water.
CAUTION: During cooking, steam will build up in the Cooker,
so when lifting the Lid use a kitchen glove or mitt to protect
your hand.
