Operating Instructions

General Rice Cooking (White Rice)

1. Measure Rice: Use the provided measuring cup to measure the desired amount of rice. One cup of uncooked rice typically yields about 2-3 cups of cooked rice.
2. Wash Rice: Rinse the rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear.
3. Add Water: Place the washed rice into the inner pot. Add water according to the water level markings inside the inner pot, corresponding to the number of rice cups. For example, if you added 2 cups of rice, fill water to the "2" mark for white rice.
4. Place Inner Pot: Ensure the exterior of the inner pot is dry, then place it into the main body of the rice cooker. Close the lid securely.
5. Select Function: Press the "MENU" button repeatedly until "White Rice" is selected on the digital display.

Low Carb Rice Cooking

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and longevity of your rice cooker.

1. Unplug Before Cleaning: Always unplug the rice cooker from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Inner Pot & Accessories: Wash the non-stick inner pot, low-carb basket, measuring cup, and ladles with mild dish soap and a soft sponge. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal scrubbers, as this can damage the non-stick coating. The inner pot is not dishwasher safe.
3. Detachable Steam Valve: The steam valve located on the top of the lid can be easily removed for cleaning. Detach it, wash with mild soap and water, rinse thoroughly, and reattach once dry.
4. Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the rice cooker with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a small amount of mild detergent on the cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or immerse the main unit in water.
5. Inner Lid: The inner lid is also removable for thorough cleaning. Gently pull it down to detach, wash, rinse, and dry before reattaching.
