you're ready to eat. As always, cleanup is quick,
because all removable parts are dishwasher-safe.

Rice Cooker/Steamer;
IMPORTANT GUIDELINES
• This appliance generates steam. Do not operate
it without the lid in place.
• Do not use your Rice Cooker/Steamer under
hanging wall cabinets; the escaping steam could
cause damage.
• Do not use metal utensils. Metal utensils will
damage the nonstick finish on inner cooking
bowl.
• Add rice and water before plugging in the cooker.
Because the Rice Cooker/Steamer does not have
an Off setting, the unit will automatically be in
Warm mode immediately after the unit is plugged
in.
TIPS AND HINTS
• The Cuisinart
®
appliance for a busy lifestyle and limited space.
It will cook rice and grains perfectly with minimal
fuss, taking up little counter space and leaving
all your burners free for other tasks. Cleaning up
the nonstick bowl is quick and easy and there is
virtually no maintenance.
• Your rice cooker can be used for more than just
rice. It is a simple way to cook pilafs. Simply turn
unit on and walk away — it will automatically
switch to Warm when ready to serve.
• You can use your rice cooker to cook a combi-
nation of rice, grains and legumes at the same
time. Follow our recipes for ideas and suggested
amounts to use — let your imagination be
your guide.
• Rinsing/washing rice: Generally the rule is to
wash or rinse imported rice and not to wash
or rinse domestic (grown in U.S.) rice, as it has
been enriched with vitamins. To wash rice: place
in a medium bowl and cover with water, swirl
until the water appears chalky/cloudy, and drain
in a fine mesh strainer. Repeat until water is clear
(or nearly clear) when rice is covered and swirled.

Rice aficionados will even wash domestic rice,
as it removes the starches and reduces sticki-
ness. If you follow a well-balanced diet, then the
2
loss of these vitamins will not be detrimental. Do
not wash your rice in the rice cooker bowl – if the
outside of the bowl is wet when cooking, it may
3
cause damage to your rice cooker.
• Some varieties of rice may call for a soaking
period. This can be done in the rice cooker bowl
prior to cooking.
• When cooking rice, boil it until it has absorbed
all the liquid. At this time it is not quite done.

Rice benefits from a "boil-steam" method of
cooking. Allow your rice to rest on the Warm
5
setting for 5 to 10 minutes before serving for
best results. Do not remove the cover and peek.
