USING THE MULTICOOKER

Measuring the ingredients - Max capacity of the bowl

• The graduated markings on the inside of the bowl are given in liters and

cups, these are used for measuring the amount of water when cooking

rice and other cereals – Fig.7.

• The plastic cup provided with your appliance is for measuring rice and

other cereals. The provided table states the quantity of rice required

for the number of servings. 1 level measuring cup of rice weighs about

150 g.

• The table below gives a guide to cooking different kinds of rice. For best

results, it is recommended using ordinary rice rather than easy cook or

instant rice which tends to give a stickier rice and may stick to the base

of the cooking pot. With other types of rice, such as brown or wild rice,

the quantity of water varies from white rice so reference table provided.

• To cook 1 cup of white rice (serves 2 small or 1 large portion), use 1

measuring cup of white rice and then add 1 1/2 measuring cup of water.

With some types of rice it is normal for a little rice to stick on the base

of the cooking pot when cooking a smaller quantity. To cook other

quantity of white rice, refer to cooking guide below.

• The maximum quantity of water + rice should not exceed the 5.5 or

10 cup mark inside the bowl – Fig.7. Depending on the type of rice,

quantity of water may need adjustment. See the table below.
