cooking time. It’s especially true at high altitudes where longer cooking
times are necessary. We have outlined a general guide to follow. Test for
desired consistency when cooking times indicated have been reached. As

own personal tastes.

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR RICE COOKER
This appliance should be cleaned after every use.
• Unplug the RICE COOKER when not in use or before cleaning. Never
immerse HEATING UNIT in water or any other liquids. Allow the RICE
COOKER to cool completely before cleaning.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads or steel wool to clean the
RICE COOKER.
• To clean the HEATING UNIT, lightly wipe the exterior with a damp
cloth or sponge. Do not immerse the HEATING UNIT into water or
any other liquid. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
• The INNER POT is coated with a non-stick coating to make cleanup
easier. To clean, remove the INNER POT from the RICE COOKER and
fill with hot water from the tap. Let it sit for a while and then wash
with hot, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
• The MEASURING CUP and RICE PADDLE can be washed in warm,
soapy water. They are not dishwasher safe.
• Wipe down the inside of the LID, if necessary, with a clean, damp
cloth or sponge.
• Make sure that the grains of rice do not stick to the HEATING PLATE
in the bottom of the HEATING UNIT. If this occurs, remove

non-abrasive pad can be used to remove it. Polish the area for good
contact between the HEATING PLATE and the bottom of the
INNER POT.
