Before using for the first time

Before the appliance is used for the first time, remove the stickers from the rice pan and clean the appliance as described in the section Cleaning and care.

Measuring cup

The measuring cup (Cup) contains two scales. One shows the content in millilitres (ml), the other one in ‘cups’. The maximum content (180 ml or 1 cup) is reached if the cup is completely full.
For cooking rice, only a full cup measure is required.

Rice pan with CUP and L-scales

The CUP scale is suitable for measuring rice with the measuring cup (Cup) provided:
Use the measuring cup to put the desired quantity of rice into the rice pan (between 2 and 10 cups).
Fill the rice pan with water up to the appropriate CUP scale marking on inside the pan. If, for example, 4 cups of rice have been put in, the water level should reach the 4-mark on the CUP scale inside the pan.
The L -scale permits measuring the amount of rice using any standard measuring cup:
Fill the measuring cup with 0.6 -1.8 l of rice.
Fill the rice pan with water up to the appropriate L -scale marking inside the pan. If, for example, 1 L of rice has been put in, the water level should reach up to the 1.0 mark on the L -scale inside the pan.

Temperature control

The appliance uses an integral temperature control. Once the water has completely evaporated during the cooking process, the unit automatically switches to the keepwarm function.

Selector switch

The selector switch can be used to switch between the cooking and keep-warm functions.
The switch cannot be operated unless the rice pan is correctly fitted inside the housing.

Operation

Cooking rice

Open the lid of the rice cooker by holding down the lid release, and pulling the lid up by its handle.
Place the rice pan inside the appliance.
Put the desired quantity of rice into the rice pan (see Rice pan with CUP and L-scales).
Add water to the rice until the appropriate mark on the Cup or L -scale inside the pan is reached.
Add salt as desired.
Close the lid.
Connect the power cord to the rice cooker first, and then insert the plug into the wall socket.
Turn the On/Off switch on the left side on the appliance on.
Push the selector switch down.
The cooking process begins as indicated by the red cooking indicator light.
Once the water has completely evaporated during the cooking process, the unit automatically switches to the keep-warm function. The red cooking indicator light goes out and is replaced by the yellow keep-warm indicator light.
The rice should then be left to stand for further 5 minutes before being removed from the pan.
Switch off the appliance and remove the plug from the wall socket.
Use the lid release to open the lid.
Danger of scalding. Beware of escaping steam.

Useful hints on cooking rice

Always check the packaging for information on whether the rice needs to be washed before cooking.
Should you prefer softer rice, check the packaging for specific information about steamed rice, or pre-soak the rice in water for approximately 15 minutes before cooking.
This rice cooker is not suitable for preparing rice pudding or creamed rice, as the milk will burn.

Steaming

Meat, potatoes and vegetables can be steamed using the steaming tray.

Put 3 cups (Cup) of water into the rice pan. This amount of water is sufficient to steam for 30 minutes.
Put the prepared food into the steaming tray and place it into the rice pan.
Close the lid.
Connect the power cord to the rice cooker first before inserting the plug into the wall socket.
Turn the On/Off switch on the left side on the appliance on.
Push the selector switch down.
The cooking process begins.
The steaming time largely depends on the type of food used. While cauliflower and carrots require a steaming time of approx. 15 minutes, zucchini only need 10 minutes.
In order to prevent the steam from escaping during the steaming process, the lid should be kept closed.
Once the desired steaming time has elapsed, switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the wall socket.
Use the lid release to open the lid.
Danger of scalding. Beware of escaping steam.
Use an oven cloth to remove the steaming tray carefully from the rice pan.
Any remaining water in the rice pan may be poured out once the appliance has sufficiently cooled down.

Condensation collection container

The condensation container at the rear of the lid collects any condensation forming on the inside of the lid.
The container must be emptied after each cycle of use.
Simply pull the container out, empty and then re-insert it.

Cleaning and care

Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the mains and wait until it has completely cooled down.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the appliance with liquids or immerse it.
Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions.
The appliance should be cleaned only with a damp, lint-free cloth.
The rice pan, steaming tray and the spoon can be cleaned with hot water.
Note: These parts are not dish-washer safe.
Empty the condensation container.
The lid can be cleaned outside and inside with a damp, lint-free cloth.
The steam release should be removed after each cycle of use and thoroughly rinsed. Ensure that it is completely dry before being replaced.
Always ensure that the steam release is fitted with the vents facing away from the handle.
