BEFORE USE
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED WHEN
USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
1 Read all instructions thoroughly.
2 Avoid touching hot surfaces and do not close or clog the steam vent opening under any
circumstances. The handles and knobs are provided for your safety and protection.
3 To prevent hazardous operation or electric shock, do not immerse power cord, power
plug, or rice cooker (except inner cooking pan) in water or other liquids.
4 Close supervision is recommended when the appliance is used by or near children.
5 Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow the appliance to cool
before adding or removing parts, and before cleaning the appliance. Make sure
appliance is OFF when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before
cleaning.
6 Do not use or operate the appliance with a damaged cord or plug. If the appliance
malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner, unplug the appliance and return it to
the nearest authorized service facility or dealer for examination, repair or adjustment.
7 The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may be hazardous or may cause malfunction.
8 Do not use outdoors.
9 Keep the power cord away from hot surfaces and do not let the cord hang over the
edge of tables or counters.
10 Do not place the appliance on or near a heated surface such as a gas or electric stove,
or in a heated oven.
11 Always use extreme caution when moving appliances containing hot contents or liquids.
12 Plug the cord into a household electrical outlet. To disconnect, turn the power control to
OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.
13 Do not use the appliance for other than intended or specified purposes.
14 To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only the supplied inner cooking pan.
15 The heating element surface is subject to residual heat after use.
16 The plug to the appliance should be attached first before plugging the cord into a wall outlet.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THIS APPLIANCE IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
This appliance is supplied with a short power cord to reduce the risk of becoming entangled
in or tripping over. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an
extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great
as the electrical rating of the appliance, and a longer cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of
electric shock, this plug was designed to fit into a polarized outlet in only one direction. If the
plug does not fit fully into the outlet, do not attempt to force it or modify it in any way. Simply
reverse the plug and insert. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.

________
CET APPAREIL EST UNIQUEMENT À USAGE DOMESTIQUE.
L'appareil est équipé d'un cordon court afin de réduire les risques d'enchevetrement ou de
chutes sur le cordon. Des rallonges peuvent être utilisées à condition que toutes les
precautions soient prises lors de leur utilisation.
Si vous vous servez d'une rallonge, sa puissance électrique indiquée devra être égale ou
supérieure à celle de I'appareil; Le cordon devra être arrange de manière à ce qu'il ne pende
pas depuis le haut d'un comptoir ou d'une table ou il serait à portée de main des enfants et ou
il occasionnerait des accidents dus à une chute ou à un enchevêtrement. L'appareil a une prise
polarisée (I'une des lames est plus large que I'autre). Pour réduire les risques de chocs
électriques, la prise s'insere dans un seul sens à I'interieur d'une prise murale polarisée. Si la
prise ne s'adapte pas correctement dans la prise murale, retournez-la. Si elle ne s'adapte
toujours pas, contactez un électricien specialise. Ne cherchez en aucun cas à modifier la prise.

White Rice with Germ
All bran has been removed
but the germ of brown rice
remains.
White Rice with Germ is polished using a special
technique that cannot be performed by a household
rice polisher. May be purchased at a specialty store
or grocery.
Germinated Brown Rice
Brown rice that is ready to
be germinated by a special
process.
The process gives a softer texture and improved
taste. Also contains the nutrient GABA (gamma-
aminobutyric acid).
ACTIVATED BROWN RICE
(GABA BROWN)
'The Rice Cooker has two settings for cooking brown rice. The GABA BROWN
setting on the menu activates brown rice for increased nutritional value.
GABA BROWN SETTING:
• When GABA BROWN is selected on the menu, the Rice Cooker will begin
activating the brown rice, after which it will start cooking automatically. During the
brown rice activation process, the temperature in the Inner Cooking Pan is kept at
about 104°F for 2 hours. Cooking may take 3 hours to 3 hours and 15 minutes till
completion. By activating brown rice, GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a naturally
occurring nutrient in brown rice, increases to 150% of the amount contained in non-
activated brown rice. This process also makes brown rice softer, thus making it
readily edible.
^W h a t is GABA?
GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is a type of amino acid said to lower blood
pressure and relieve stress.

HOW
TO
COOK GREAT-TASTING RICE
Measure rice accurately
Be sure to use the Measuring Cup provided, as other measuring cups may differ.
Level the rice off at the top of the cup to maintain accuracy.
Rinse rice quickly
The first rinse should be done quickly, swishing and stirring the rice by hand with
plenty of water. Drain the water immediately afterwards. Then rinse the rice 4-5
times with fresh water to clean out the bran.
Adjust the amount of water accordingly
Type of Rice
Water Adjustment
Softer rice
White rice with germ
Normal scale level
New crop
Reduce water slightly
from the normal level
Old crop
Harder rice
Add a little water to

e.g.: When Cooking 2 Cups of
White Rice or Rinse-Free Rice
Do not use strong alkaline ionic water
Rice cooked with strong alkaline ionic water
may appear yellow or become too glutinous.
Stir and loosen rice immediately after
cooking has completed
Excessive moisture is released, resulting in
rice that is perfectly cooked with a fluffy
texture.

HOW TO USE
HOW TO COOK RICE
BASIC COOKING STEPS
Measure the rice with the provided
Measuring Cup.
One leveled cup of rice in the provided Measuring Cup is approx. 6.1 oz.
Rinse the rice and adjust the amount of water.
Place the Inner Cooking Pan on a flat surface. Add water to the water level
according to the menu setting you have chosen (see pg. 13 "TIPS TO
COOKING GREAT-TASTING RICE BY MENUS"). For an accurate
measurement, level the surface of the rice.
• The rice may be cooked immediately after rinsing, as soaking is not
required. Soaking the rice will soften the texture of the rice.
Place the Inner Cooking Pan into the Main Body, close
the Outer Lid, and plug in the Power Cord.
Always take precautions to wipe the outer surface of the Inner Cooking Pan clean, especially of
moisture, before placing it securely into the Main Body.
• If you press the COOKING button without inserting the Inner Cooking Pan, a beep will sound and
the Display will show the error message "H04."
Be sure the Inner Lid is attached before closing.
1) Insert the Power Cord into the Main Body securely.
2) Insert the Power Plug into an electrical outlet.

Measure the rinse-free rice with the
provided green Rinse-Free Measuring Cup.
One leveled cup of rinse-free rice In the provided green Measuring
Cup (for rinse-free rice) is approx. 5.8 oz.
'------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ /
Add enough water to cover the rice and gently stir 2-3
times to separate the grains, and then adjust the
amount of water.
Place the Inner Cooking Pan on a flat surface. Add water to the water
level according to the menu setting you have chosen (see pg. 13 "TIPS
TO COOKING GREAT-TASTING RICE BY MENUS"). For an accurate
measurement, level the surface of the rice.
• Depending on the rice polishing method, starch may be left on the
surface of the rice. If the water becomes cloudy, change the water and
rinse once or twice to prevent scorching, boiling over or imperfect
cooking.
• When cooking rice with seasonings, mix well from the bottom of the
Inner Cooking Pan.
• The rice may be cooked immediately after rinsing, as soaking is not
required. Soaking the rice will soften the texture of the rice.
