Before First Use

1. Read all instructions and important safeguards.
2. Remove all packaging materials and check that all items have been received in good condition.
3. Tear up all plastic bags and dispose of them properly as they can pose a risk to children.
4. Remove the inner pot from the cooker and clean with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly before returning to the cooker.
5. Wash all accessories in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
6. Wipe the cooker's body clean with a damp cloth.
7. Dry all parts thoroughly then assemble for use.

To Clean

1. Remove the inner pot when the cooker has completely cooled.
2. Hand wash the inner pot and all accessories using warm, soapy water or place on the top rack of the dishwasher.
3. Wipe the cooker's body clean with a damp cloth.
4. Thoroughly dry the cooker's body and all accessories. Reassemble for next use.

Caution:

Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners, scouring pads or products that are not considered safe to use on nonstick coatings.

We recommend hand washing the inner pot with warm, soapy water to lengthen its lifespan and avoid damage over time. If washing in a dishwasher, a slight discoloration to the inner pot may occur. This is cosmetic and will not negatively affect performance.

Before placing the inner pot into the cooker, check that the inner pot is dry and free of debris. Adding the inner pot when wet may damage the cooker.

Troubleshooting

Rice is too dry/hard after cooking.

Depending on how dry your rice is, add ½ to 1 cup of water and stir thoroughly. Close the lid and select the White Rice function once more. When the cooker switches to Warm, open the lid and stir the rice to check the consistency. Repeat as necessary until rice is soft and moist.

Rice is too moist/soggy after cooking.

Use the serving spatula to stir the rice to redistribute the bottom (moist) part of the rice as well as release excess moisture. Close the lid and allow the cooker to remain on Warm for 10-30 minutes as needed, opening the lid and stirring periodically to release excess moisture.

Error Code Chart

If an error shows on the digital display, the following chart will help explain the next course of action.

Note: Any other servicing should be performed by Aroma® Housewares.

Helpful Hints: The provided rice measuring cup is the equivalent to a ¾ standard U.S. cup.

Rice & Grain Cooking

1. Using the provided measuring cup, add rice or grain to the inner pot.
2. For white or brown rice, rinse for 10 seconds and drain water. Repeat this process at least 2 times, or until water runs clear. For other grains, see the packaging instructions.
3. For white rice and brown rice, fill with water to the line that matches the number of cups of uncooked rice added. For other grains, see the "Grain & Water Measurement Table" on page 11.
4. Place the inner pot into the cooker and close the lid securely.
5. Plug the power cord into an available 120V AC wall outlet.
6. Gently tap the Warm / [cancel-symbol] button to turn the cooker on.
7. Gently tap the White Rice function. To cook brown rice or other grains, select the Multigrain function.
8. The cooking indicator light will illuminate and the digital display will show a chasing pattern. The cooker will now begin heating.
9. The digital display will count down the final 12 minutes of cook time.
10. Once the cycle has completed, the cooker will beep and automatically switch to Warm.
11. For best results, stir the grain with the serving spatula to distribute any remaining moisture.
12. When finished serving, turn the rice cooker off by gently tapping the Warm / [cancel-symbol] button and unplugging the power cord.

Caution:

Before placing the inner pot into the cooker, check that it is dry and free of debris. Adding the inner pot when wet may damage the cooker.

Note: Because of different varieties of rice, results may differ. Food should not be left in the cooker on Warm mode for more than 12 hours. For best results, we recommend rinsing rice and grains in a bowl of water before cooking. Avoid using a strainer or colander, which may not be as effective in removing excess starch and may affect the final texture.

Helpful Hints: To add more flavor to rice, try substituting a favorite meat or vegetable broth or stock. The ratio of broth/stock to rice will be the same as water to rice. For approximate rice cooking times and suggested rice/water ratios, see "Rice/Grain & Water Measurement Table" on pages 10-11.

Delay Timer

1. Using the provided measuring cup, add rice, grain, oatmeal or porridge to the inner pot.
2. For white or brown rice, rinse for 10 seconds and drain the water. Repeat this process at least 2 times, or until the water runs clear.
3. For white rice or brown rice, fill with water to the line that matches the number of cups of rice being cooked. For grains other than white rice or brown rice, see the "Grain & Water Measurement Table" on page 11. For oatmeal or porridge, fill with water according to packaging instructions.
4. Place the inner pot into the cooker and close the lid securely.
5. Plug the power cord into an available 120V AC wall outlet.
6. Gently tap the Warm / [cancel-symbol] button to turn on the cooker.
7. Gently tap the White Rice, Multigrain, Oatmeal or Porridge button, depending on the type of grain being cooked.
8. Select Delay. Gently tap [plus-symbol] or [minus-symbol] to increase or decrease the delay time in one hour increments. It may be set to have food ready in 1 to 15 hours using the White Rice and Oatmeal functions, and 2 to 15 hours for the Porridge and Multigrain functions.
9. The digital display will count down from the time selected.
10. Once the allotted delay time has elapsed, the unit will beep and the cooking indicator light will illuminate. The display will show a chasing pattern to signify the beginning of the cooking cycle.
11. The cooker will count down the final 12 minutes of cook time.
12. Once the cycle has completed, the cooker will beep and automatically switch to Warm.
13. For best results, stir the rice with the serving spatula to distribute any remaining moisture.
14. When finished serving, turn the cooker off by gently tapping the Warm / [cancel-symbol] button and unplugging the power cord.

Note: The delay timer includes cooking time. Once the delay timer elapses, rice or grains will be cooked and ready to serve.

Helpful Hints: For approximate rice and grain cooking times and suggested water ratios, see the "Rice/Grain & Water Measurement Tables" on page 10-11. If you misplace the measuring cup, a ¾ standard U.S. cup is an exact replacement.

Rice & Water Measurement Table

*Cups referenced are with the included measuring cup (1 Rice Measuring Cup = ½ U.S. Cup)

Use provided rice spatula or non-metal utensil for serving to prevent scratching the nonstick inner pot.

Note: Cooking times are approximate. Altitude, humidity and external temperature will affect cooking time. Do not place more than 4 cups of uncooked white or brown rice into this appliance at one time. The maximum capacity of this unit is 4 cups of uncooked white or brown rice which yields 8 cups of cooked white or brown rice. Brown rice and other grains require a much longer cooking cycle than white rice due to the extra bran layers on the grains. The Multigrain function on this rice cooker allows extra time and adjusted heat settings in order to cook the grain properly. If it appears the rice cooker is not heating up immediately on the Multigrain setting, this is due to a low-heat soak cycle that precedes the cooking cycle to produce better results.

Grain & Water Measurement Table

*Cups referenced are with the included measuring cup (1 Rice Measuring Cup = ½ U.S. Cup)

Note: Brown rice, wild rice and other grains vary in their make-up. Some variations may require longer cooking times and/or additional water in order to achieve optimum results. Refer to the individual package instructions for cooking suggestions. The measuring cup included adheres to rice industry standards (180mL) and is not equal to one U.S. cup. The chart above refers to cups of rice/water according to the measuring cup provided. When cooking barley, you must use the Delay Timer for 4 hours in combination with the Multigrain function. The additional soaking time will ensure good flavor and texture. For best results when cooking barley or bulgur, let both grains sit on Warm for 10 minutes before serving.

Soup

1. Add desired ingredients to the inner pot.
2. Place the inner pot into the rice cooker and close the lid securely.
3. Plug the power cord into an available 120V AC wall outlet.
4. Gently tap the Warm / [cancel-symbol] button to turn on the cooker.
5. Select Soup then set the desired cook time by gently tapping the [plus-symbol] or [minus-symbol] buttons to increase or decrease time in 1 hour increments. The cooker will begin heating approximately 5 seconds after the time is input and the cooking indicator light will illuminate.
6. Using caution to avoid escaping steam, open the lid and stir occasionally with a long-handled wooden spoon.
7. Once food is completed, the cooker will automatically switch to Warm.
8. When finished serving, turn the rice cooker off by gently tapping the Warm / [cancel-symbol] button once more and unplugging the power cord.

Caution:

Do not use the provided serving spatula to stir hot soup, chili, or stew. It is not intended to be used in contact with high temperatures. Instead, use a long-handled wooden or heat-safe spoon to stir hot liquids.

Note: Food should not be left in the cooker on Warm mode for more than 12 hours. The Soup function can be set for a cook time of 2 to 8 hours.

Oatmeal

1. Using the provided measuring cup, add oatmeal to the inner pot.
2. Fill with water according to packaging instructions. When an oatmeal/water ratio is not available, use a 1 to 2.5 ratio. In such cases, do not use more than 2 cups of oatmeal.
3. Place the inner pot into the cooker and close the lid securely.
4. Plug into an available 120V AC outlet.
5. Gently tap the Warm / [cancel-symbol] button to turn on the cooker.
