CAKE
For cooking delicious cakes, select the 'CAKE' setting. The cake setting on your Bamboo makes delicious and
moist cakes. Please see section 6 on page 15 for more detailed instructions for cake baking.
The default cooking time for the 'CAKE' setting is 40 mins. This time can be adjusted down to 30 mins and up to 60
mins in 5 mins intervals using the 'Hour' or 'Minute' buttons once you have selected the 'CAKE' setting and it is
blinking on the display. Once the cooking cycle is complete, Bamboo will make a series of beeps and will
automatically switch to 'KEEP WARM'.

CANCELLING PROGRAMMES
To cancel a programme you have selected, cancel keep warm or, if you want to stop a programme part way
through the cooking cycle, you just need to press and hold the 'CANCEL' button for 2 seconds. Bamboo will then
switch to standby mode.

HOW TO USE THE DELAYED START (PRESET) FUNCTION
The 'PRESET' function is a useful timer/delayed start feature; this allows you to set the appliance to have your rice
or food ready at a specific time.
To set the timer:
1.
Press the 'MENU' touch button to select a cooking programme (for non-rice cooking programmes you
can programme the length of cooking time at this point).
2.
Then press the 'PRESET' button which will then light up.
3.
By pressing the 'Hr' and 'Min' touch buttons you can select the hours in advance when the rice/dish
should be ready.
4.
Press and hold the 'START' touch button, the cooker will display the hours/minutes in advance you
selected, start to count down and the cooking cycle will complete at the time you specified.
If the preset/timer is set to below the minimum stated in the below table, the cooking cycle will start immediately.
This is because the default cooking time for each cooking cycle has to be taken into account along with
additional assessment time for the fuzzy logic to know what it is cooking.

Preset timings
Note – be aware that perishable foods should not be left for long periods of time when you have set the 'PRESET'
function as they may spoil.
The start time of the preset/timer is not exact, it will come on slightly earlier as Bamboo has
to assess what exactly is in the inner bowl (rice/oats/water) and volume so it can calculate the
cooking time effectively. It deals with this by turning the unit on early so it can 'assess' the
contents.
The 'PRESET' function is available for all menu settings.
