Some recommendations
for best results when cooking rice
• Measure out the rice and rinse it thoroughly under running water in a sieve for
a long time (except for risotto rice which should not be rinsed). Then place the
rice in the bowl together with the corresponding quantity of water.
• Make sure that the rice is well distributed around the whole surface of the bowl,
in order to allow even cooking.
• Add salt to your personal taste if required.
• Water may be substituted to stock. If using stock, there is the risks of rice
browning a bit in the bottom.
• Do not open the lid during cooking as steam will escape and this will affect the
cooking time and the taste.
• On completion of cooking, when the “KEEP WARM” indicate light is on, stir the
rice and then leave it in the rice cooker for a few minutes longer in order to get
perfect rice with separate grains.

Rice cooking
The cooking times given in the tables are only approximate and for your guidance.
• Place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work surface away from water
splashes and any other sources of heat.
• Pour the required quantity of rice into the bowl using the measuring cup
provided. Then fill with cold water up to the corresponding “CUP” mark printed in
the bowl (See cooking guide above) – Fig. 7.
• Close the lid.
Note: Always add the rice first otherwise you will have too much water.
• Check that the appliance is plugged in. Turn the mode switch to the left to choose
"RICE/STEAM" mode
– Fig. 8
and then press downwards on the control switch, the
red cooking indicator illuminates showing that cooking has begun
– Fig. 9
.
• When cooking finished, it will turn to keep warm automatically, the "KEEP
WARM" indicate light is on
– Fig. 10
.
• After each use empty and clean the condensation collector.
The rice cooker itself
determines the exact
cooking time depending on
the quantity of water and
ingredients placed in the
bowl (see cooking table
above for a guide to
times).
When the volume of water
has been absorbed by the
rice, the appliance stops
the cooking process
automatically and passes
into the “KEEP WARM"
mode (the orange “KEEP
WARM” indicate light
comes on).
Note: When using risotto rice for milk rice pudding or dessert puddings follow the proportions in the
recipe book as more water is needed.
When cooking milk rice pudding, use Arborio risotto rice instead of pudding rice, as it cooks quicker and
gives better results. Follow the instructions in the recipes. Do not cook the rice directly in milk as it will
froth up and boil up through the lid.
