Do not place the rice cooker underneath an object such as a kitchen cabinet or shelf, as the hot steam may damage it.
Lift the lid off the rice cooker and take the inner pan out of the rice cooker.
Use the measuring cup provided to measure the required quantity of rice. One full measuring cup of uncooked rice is
roughly equivalent to two measuring cups of boiled rice. One full measuring cup contains approximately 100 grams of rice.
This is enough for one person.
1. Measure the desired amount of rice. (1 measuring cup per person)
2. Rinse the rice until the rinsing water becomes reasonably clear and briefly drain the rice.
Caution: Do not rinse the rice in the inner pan. The hard rice grains could damage the non-stick layer on the inside of the pan.
3. Place the rinsed rice in the inner pan.
4. Add the required quantity of water using the measuring cup. For one cup of white rice, one measuring cup of water must
be added. The quantity markers in the inner pan are purely indicative and apply only to white rice. The quantity markers
indicate how much water should be added to the inner pan depending on how many measuring cups of rice have been
added. For softer rice, we recommend soaking the rice for 10-20 minutes before cooking it.
5. Check that the outside of the inner pan is properly dry and clean before placing it in the rice cooker. Ensure that the inner
pan makes proper contact with the heating element. There should be no food residues or other hard particles between the
inner pan and the heating element.
6. Place the lid on the pan.
7. Insert the mains cord in the connection of the rice cooker. Insert the plug in the socket and switch the ON/OFF button at the
rear of the appliance to ON.
8. Press down the start button at the front under the indicator lights. The COOK indicator light switches on. To prevent steam
being lost – which results in a longer cooking time – we advise that you do not open the lid while the rice is cooking unless
necessary.
9. Once the rice is ready, the rice cooker will automatically switch to warm mode. The COOK indicator light goes out and the
WARM indicator light remains on. Leave the rice for at least 10 minutes before opening the lid. The exact amount of time
depends on the amount of rice cooked. The rice cooker keeps the rice warm until you pull the plug out of the socket. Do not
leave the rice on warm mode for longer than 12 hours.
10. Press the start button upwards and lift the lid off the rice cooker. Caution: this may release hot steam. Use oven gloves
if you wish to take the inner pan out of the rice cooker, as it may be hot.
11. Remove the rice from the inner pan with the provided spoon, to prevent damaging the non-stick layer.
12. Switch off the rice cooker by removing the plug from the socket or by switching off the ON/OFF button at the rear of
the appliance.
Attention: It is important that the outside of the inner pan is completely clean and dry before it is placed in the rice cooker.
The heating element can be damaged if water, food remnants or other dirt come into contact with it. Never use the inner pan
for any other purposes than preparing rice in the rice cooker, for instance as a separate pan for cooking. The bottom will warp,
making the inner pan unusable.
Before cleaning, always remove the plug from the socket and let the rice cooker cool down.
1. Remove the inner pan and wash it with hot water and mild washing-up liquid. Use a soft sponge or cloth.
2. Rinse the inner pan and then wipe it dry thoroughly.
3. Do the same with the lid and the accessories.
4. Clean the outside of the rice cooker with a damp cloth.
• Never use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents! This can damage the inner pan's non-stick layer.
• The appliance itself cannot be washed in a dishwasher.
• I t is important that the outside of the inner pan is completely clean and dry before it is placed in the rice cooker.
The heating element can be damaged if water, food remnants or other dirt come into contact with it.
