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 necessary 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 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.

that expand after cooking such as processed seafood products and beans.
•Foods
with large amounts
of
oil.
•Foods
packaged in plastic bags.
When cooking ...
•Do
not use paper towels or other lids to cover the food.
•Remove
any foreign objects on the outside
of

or

➔
pg.22
•When
using aluminum foil
or
cooking sheets, do not completely cover the holes on the Steaming Basket, or allow it to extend
outside the Steaming Basket. Doing so may cause breakdown, boiling over, or steam may leak.
•Steaming time will vary based on the room
or
water temperature, voltage or water measurement, size, amount and
temperature of the food
or
other factors.
•If
the food is undercooked, repeat the steam process to cook further by following steps 4 through 6.
•When
steaming consecutively, check to make sure there is enough water in the Inner Cooking Pan, and add water accordingly
to prevent boil-dry.
•Steaming fish and meat for an extended time makes it tough. If it is not cooking through, slice them thinly before steaming.
Adding herbs, garlic
or
flavoring with salt and pepper may reduce odor.
When cooking other foods together with rice ...
•Cook
the rice using the
WHITE/
SUSHI menu setting.
•Do
not cook more than 1 cup of rice if the cooking capacity is 1.0L,
or
2-4
cups if the cooking capacity is 1.8L. (The Outer Lid
may open during cooking, preventing the rice from cooking properly and the other ingredients from steaming properly.)
•Level
the surface
of
the rice before cooking.
➔
Failure to do so may cause the cooked rice to touch the Steaming Basket.
•Ingredients that require a comparatively long steaming time, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, pumpkin, and fish
(wrapped in aluminum foil) can be cooked together. If they do not cook through properly, reduce the amount
of
ingredients
or
cut them into small pieces.
•Ingredients that require a comparatively short steaming time, such as spinach, will not steam properly.
•Do
not add ingredients while the rice is cooking.
•The
rice may burn more easily or take on the color
of
the other ingredients.
After cooking ...
•Be
careful when opening the Outer Lid or removing the steamed dish
or
Steaming Basket, as the steam and the interior
of
the
Main Body are very hot and can cause burns.
•Oil
and scum may soil the Inner Lid Set and the inside of the Outer Lid, especially when steaming meats. Always wash the
Inner Lid Set, Inner Cooking Pan and Steaming Basket after each use, and wipe the Outer Lid Gasket and the Inside
of
the
Outer Lid after each use to prevent odors or spoiling.
•Hot
condensation may fall from the Inner Lid Set when the Outer Lid is opened and cause burns. Please exercise caution.
