Preparing Rice Using Indirect Heating

1. Measure the quantity of rice desired using a measuring cup and pour into the inner pot.

2. Fill the inner pot with water to the water level line for the number of cups of rice used. For example, if cooking two cups of rice, fill the inner pot to the second water level line.

3. Fill the measuring cup with water equivalent to the amount of rice used. For example, if two cups of rice was used, fill the measuring cup with two cups of water.

4. Pour the water into the outer cooker.

5. Plug in the rice cooker.

6. Cover the cooker and press the switch lever down until the red light appears. The cooker will turn off automatically when the rice is done. Do not immediately remove the rice; leave the rice covered in the cooker for about 15 minutes to complete the steam cooking.
