   Attention:
   In a single batch, it is possible to cook a maximum of 3 level measuring cups of rice.

• Transfer the rice to a strainer and rinse through using running water. Transfer the rinsed rice into the removable bowl A2 and evenly spread it out from the center towards the wall of the bowl. Add the appropriate amount of cold water. You will find the recommended rice and water dosage ratio in the table below.

A2.
2 measuring cups| Add water up to the 2–2½ CUP mark on the removable inner bowl A2.
3 measuring cups| Add water up to the 3 CUP mark on the removable inner bowl A2.

Note:
Two measuring scales are marked on the measuring cup B1. One measuring scale is used for measuring rice (¼, ½, ¾ cup or one level measuring cup), and the second scale is used for measuring water (40 to 160 ml).
A single-level measuring cup is equal to 140 g of uncooked rice.
Attention:

1. The rice to water ratio can be modified as necessary. However, make sure that the water level does not exceed the 0.6 L water level mark on the inside wall of the removable bowl A2. Otherwise boiling water could spray out during the cooking process.

   Tip: The rice will taste better if you allow it to finish cooking in the KEEP WARM mode for 10 to 20 minutes.
