Remove all packaging, but keep it till you’re satisfied the cooker is working. Important safeguards When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following: 1.Don’t put the cooker body in water or any other liquid, don’t use the cooker in a bathroom or near any source of water, and don’t use it outdoors. 2.This appliance should be used only by or under the supervision of a responsible adult. 3.Don’t put frozen meat or poultry in the cooker — defrost fully before use. 4.Don’t try to cook anything in the body of the cooker — cook only in the removable pan or in the basket fitted above the pan. 5.Don’t fill the pan above the bottom of the 1.8 mark. If you do, it may spit boiling water. 6.Don’t touch the hot surfaces of the cooker, lid, or pan. 7.Use oven gloves or a cloth when handling the lid, or pan. 8.Steam escapes from the vent and rim, so don’t reach over the cooker. 9.Keep hands, arms, face, etc. clear of the escaping steam when lifting the lid or pan. 10.Remove the pan to serve. Don’t try to move the cooker. It’ll be heavy, and the mains lead will probably catch on something as you move. At best, you’ll tip the rice over the floor, at worst, you might scald yourself. 11.Position the cooker on a firm, level, heat resistant surface, close to a power socket, and out of reach of children. 12.Route the mains lead so that it doesn’t overhang, and can’t be tripped over or caught accidentally. 13.Don’t use the cooker near or below curtains, shelves, cupboards, or anything else likely to be damaged by the escaping steam. 14.Don’t cover the cooker or put anything on top of it during use. 15.Keep the cooker and mains lead away from hotplates, hobs and burners. 16.Unplug the cooker when not in use, before moving and before cleaning. Let it cool down fully before cleaning and storing away. 17.Don’t use accessories or attachments other than those we supply. 18.Don’t use the cooker for any purpose other than those described in these instructions. 19.Don’t operate the cooker if it’s damaged or malfunctions. If the mains lead or plug is damaged, the cooker must be returned in order to avoid hazard. Household use only Before using for the first time Wash the pan, lid, and rack in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry. This should wash away any manufacturing dust, etc. 3 Joyce_RH_10950_IB_25-4-03 4/25/03 10:29 PM Page 4 How it works Basically, you put food and water into the pan and leave it to boil dry. The cooker detects the boil-dry condition and switches to “keep warm” mode. There are two ways to regulate cooking times. 1.Use exactly the right amount of water, and leave the cooker to switch to Warm automatically — this is the method used to cook rice. 2.Use enough water, time the cooking, and move the switch up when it’s done. This is the easiest way to steam “unknowns”, unknown quantities, unknown vegetables, unknown sizes. When you use method 2, keep notes. Next time, you can use just the right amount of water, and leave the cooker to do the job on its own (method 1). Overcooking Steaming is relatively gentle, so overcooking isn’t normally a problem. Just don’t leave it too long (unless you like soggy veg), and take extra care with delicate foods like shellfish, which tends to go a bit rubbery if overcooked. Preparation 1.Sit the cooker on a firm, level, heat-resistant surface, close to a power socket, and out of reach of children. 2.Steam will escape, so don’t put it near curtains, under shelves or cupboards, or near anything that might be damaged by the escaping steam. 3.Have oven gloves (or a cloth) to hand, and a heat-resistant mat or dinner plate to put the pan or basket on after cooking. 4.Put the pan inside the cooker. Cooking rice 5.Some suppliers tell you not to wash rice, as it washes away nutrients. We recommend washing rice in cold water and letting it drain. This will remove excess starch and any loose bran. It also makes the cooked rice less sticky. 6.Fill the pan with the amount of rice required. 7.Add the required amount of water — generally, use 1 cup of water for each cup of rice. 8.Don’t fill past the 1.8 mark inside the pan. 9.Put the lid on the pan. 10.Plug the cooker in (switch the socket on, if switchable). The Warm light will come on. 11.Press the control down — it’ll lock in the down position, and the Cook light will come on. 12.When the rice is cooked, the control will pop up to its original position, the Cook light will go out, the Warm light will come on. 13.Let the rice rest for about 10 to 15 minutes, then unplug the cooker. 14.Put on the oven gloves. 15.Steam and hot air will escape when you lift the lid. Tilt it slightly to direct the steam away from you. 16.Lift out the pan and set it down on a heat-resistant mat or dinner plate. 17.Use the spatula to turn and mix the rice, to let all the steam escape. 4 Joyce_RH_10950_IB_25-4-03 4/25/03 10:29 PM Page 5 Additional ingredients If you add any additional ingredients (raisins, fruit, nu...
