    17. The rice cooker should be operated on a separate electrical circuit fromother operating appliances. If the electrical circuit is overloaded with otherappliances, the rice cooker may not operate properly.

    18. Always make sure the outside of the inner cooking pot is dry prior to use. Ifthe inner cooking pot is returned to the cooker when wet, it may damage orcause the product to malfunction.

    19. Use extreme caution when opening the lid during or after cooking. Hotsteam will escape and may cause scalding.

    20. Rice should not be left in the inner cooking pot with the “Keep-Warm”function on for more than 12 hours.

    21. To prevent damage or deformation, do not use the inner cooking pot on astovetop or burner.

  • Short Cord Instructions1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or

    tripping over a longer cord.2. Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.3. If a longer extension cord is used:

    a. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electricalrating of the appliance.

    b. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletopwhere it can be pulled by children or tripped over unintentionally.

    Polarized PlugThis appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other); follow the instructions below:

    To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If itstill does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

    If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

    To Cook Rice (cont.):

    Close the lid securely. Attach the removable powercord to the rice cooker. Plug thecord into an available outlet.

    Press the KEEP-WARM/POWERbutton to turn the rice cookeron.

    Press the WHITE RICE orBROWN RICE button, dependingupon the type of rice beingcooked.

    5 6 7 8

    The rice cooker will now begincooking. The COOKING indicatorlight will illuminate.

    The rice cooker will countdownthe final minutes of cook time(12 minutes for white rice and25 minutes for brown rice).

    9 10 HELPFUL HINTS:• Pressing the POWER button once at any time will cancel thecurrent function.

    • For approximate rice cooking times and suggested rice/waterratios, see the “Rice/Water Measurement Table” on page 8.

    • Brown rice requires a much longer cooking cycle than other ricevarieties due to the extra bran layers on the grains. The “BrownRice” function on this rice cooker allows extra time and adjustedheat settings in order to cook the rice properly. If it appears the ricecooker is not heating up immediately on the “Brown Rice” setting,this is due to a low-heat soak cycle that proceeds the cooking cycleto produce better brown rice results.

  • Because rice varieties may vary in their make-up, results may differ. Below are some troubleshooting tips tohelp you achieve the desired consistency.

    TROUBLESHOOTING

    PROBLEM SOLUTION

    Rice is too dry/hard after cooking.

    If your rice is dry or hard/chewy when the rice cooker switches to “Keep-Warm”mode, additional water and cooking time will soften the rice. Depending on howdry your rice is, add ½ to 1 cup of water and stir through. Close the lid and pressthe WHITE RICE button. When rice cooker switches to “Keep-Warm” mode, openthe lid and stir the rice to check the consistency. Repeat as necessary until rice issoft and moist.

    Rice is too moist/soggy after cooking.

    If your rice is still too wet or soggy when the rice cooker switches to “Keep-Warm”mode, use the serving spatula to stir the rice. This will redistribute the bottom(moistest) part of the rice as well as release excess moisture. Close the lid andallow to remain on “Keep-Warm” mode for 10-30 minutes as needed, opening thelid and stirring periodically to release excess moisture.

  • ABOUT RICE Courtesy of the USA Rice Federations

    Rice is the perfect foundation for today’s healthier eating. It is a nutrient-dense complex carbohydrate that supplies energy, fiber, essential vitamins and mineralsand beneficial antioxidants. Rice combines well with other healthy foods such as vegetables, fruits, meat, seafood, poultry, beans and soy foods.

    Nearly 88% of rice consumed in the U.S. is grown in the U.S. Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi and Missouri produce high-quality varieties ofshort, medium and long grain rice as well as specialty rices including jasmine, basmati, arborio, red aromatic and black japonica, among others.

    There are many different varieties of rice available in the market. Your Aroma® Rice Cooker can cook any type perfectly every time. The following are thecommonly available varieties of rice and their characteristics:

    Long Grain RiceThis rice has a long, slender kernel three to four times longer than its width. Dueto its starch composition, cooked grains are more separate, light and fluffycompared to medium or short grain rice. The majority of white rice is enriched torestore nutrients lost during processing. Great for entrees and side dishes— ricebowls, stir-fries, salads and pilafs.

    Medium Grain RiceWhen compared to long grain rice, medium grain rice has a shorter, wider kernelthat is two to three times longer than its width. Cooked grains are more moistand tender than long grain, and have a greater tendency to cling together. Greatfor entrees, sushi, risotto and rice puddings.

    Short Grain RiceShort grain rice has a short, plump, almost round kernel. Cooked grains are softand cling together, yet remain separate and are somewhat chewy, with a slightspringiness to the bite. Great for sushi, Asian dishes and desserts.

    For recipes and rice information visit the USA Rice Federation online at www.usarice.com/consumer.

    Brown RiceBrown rice is a 100% whole grain food that fits the U.S. Dietary Guidelines forAmericans recommendation to increase daily intake of whole grains. Brownrice contains the nutrient-dense bran and inner germ layer where manybeneficial compounds are found. Brown rice is available in short, medium andlong grain varieties and can be used interchangeably with enriched white rice.

    Wild RiceWild rice is an aquatic grass grown in Minnesota and California and is afrequent addition to long grain rice pilafs and rice mixes. Its unique flavor,texture and rich dark color provide a delicious accent to rice dishes. Wild ricealso makes a wonderful stuffing for poultry when cooked with broth and mixedwith your favorite dried fruits.

    For recipes and rice information visit the USA Rice Federation online at www.usarice.com/consumer.

    • Rice is the primary dietary staple for more than half of the world’s population.• U.S. grown rice is the standard for excellence and accounts for nearly 88% of the rice consumed in America. It is grown and harvested by local farmers in

    five south-central states and California.• Rice contains no sodium, cholesterol, trans fats or gluten, and has only a trace of fat. One half-cup of rice contains about 100 calories.• Research shows that people who eat rice have healthier diets than non-rice eaters and eat more like the U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans

    recommendations.• Whole grains like brown rice help reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and certain cancers, and aid in weight management.• Brown rice is a 100% whole grain. One cup of whole grain brown rice provides two of the three recommended daily servings of whole grains.• Eating rice triggers the production of serotonin in the brain, a chemical that helps regulate and improve mood.• September is National Rice Month - promoting awareness of the versatility and the value of U.S. grown rice.
