Plain Select when cooking short rice. (Standard cooking)
Ultra  
Select when cooking for sweetness, avor, and stickiness of white
rice. Soaking rice for a time twice the length of the “Plain” menu and
heating for a longer time makes rice with more avor.

Select when cooking a small amount of white rice quicker than the
“Quick” menu. The cooking time is shorter and cooked rice is slightly
hard compared to the “Plain” menu.
Cooking capacity: 0.5 to 1 cup
Long-grain Select when cooking long-grain rice.
Porridge Select when cooking porridge.
Multigrain Select when cooking other grains (barley, foxtail millet, barnyard
millet, black rice, red rice, etc.) together with white rice.
Brown Select when cooking brown rice.

See P.53 for cooking capacities.
* When using the “Porridge” menu or “Sweet” menu, rice is cooked without pressure.
* When using the “Eco” menu, a large amount of condensation may be formed on the inner lid.
Note
In pressure cooking, attention should be paid to any rapid increase in the amount of steam as the
pressure is adjusted during cooking.
Keeping rice warm
You may select whether or not to keep rice warm
after cooking is completed. (See P.18, 26.)
When using the “Porridge” menu, porridge can
become pasty if kept warm for too long. Serve it as
soon as possible.
Soaking rice
Since the soaking time is included in the cooking
time for each menu (the “Quick” and “Rapid <
= 1
Cup” menus are excluded), rice can be cooked
immediately without presoaking.
As the “Quick” and “Rapid <
= 1 Cup menus do
not have a soaking process and cooking starts
immediately, the cooking time is shorter.
The soaking time can be set by using the Soak
Timer function. (See P.24.)
Timer function
You can select either “Timer” or “Soak Timer”.
• Timer: You can preset the time that you want
cooking to be actually completed. (See P.22.)
• Soak Timer: You can set the time for rice to be
soaked naturally before cooking. (See P.24.)
Rapid <

Tips on making delicious rice
Select good quality rice and a good
storage location.
• Choose freshly polished, glossy rice with a
uniform grain size.
• Store rice in a cool, dark, well-ventilated place.
Carefully measure the rice with the
supplied measuring cup.
1 cup (level lling) is approximately 0.18 L.
• Use the supplied measuring cup for rinse-free
rice as well.
Rinse the rice quickly.
Pour rice in the inner pot and add plenty of water.
Lightly stir the rice and discard the water quickly.
Use cold water and quickly rinse the rice so that
the rice does not absorb the starchy water.
Cooking rinse-free rice
• Add rinse-free rice and water, and then stir well
from the bottom so that every individual grain
of rice becomes immersed in the water. (Just
adding water to the rice does not allow the rice
to be soaked in the water and may result in
improperly cooked rice.)
• If the added water turns white, we recommend
you rinse the rice thoroughly by replacing the
water once or twice. (The water turning white
is due to the starch in the rice and not its bran.
However, cooking it with the starch left in the
water may result in improperly cooked or burned
rice, or the contents boiling over.
Amount of water to add
Use the corresponding scale on the inner pot as
a guide. Add water according to the type of rice
and your personal preference. If adding more or
less water than the recommended amount, do not
deviate from that amount by any more than 1/3 of
one line. Doing so may cause the contents to boil
over, etc.

When cooking rinse-free rice, use the “Plain”
scale as a reference but add a little extra water
(until it just covers the corresponding line).
• When cooking germinated brown rice, whole
rice, semi-polished rice, barley, or multigrain
rice, use the “Plain” scale as a reference.
If the amount of water to add is specied on a
package of barley, germinated brown rice, or
mixed grains, follow those directions and add
water according to your personal preference.
Cooking germinated brown rice, whole
rice, and semi-polished rice
Select the “Multigrain” menu.
Read P.16 to P.17 for preparations
before cooking rice and P.18 to 25 for
how to cook rice.
Adding other ingredients to rice
The total amount of ingredients should be no
more than approximately 70 g per cup of rice.
Mix seasonings well and then add other
ingredients on top of the rice. If other ingredients
are to be added to the rice, be sure to use no
more than the acceptable maximum amount (refer
to the table below).

Rinse the rice and then level it out so that all of
the rice is under water.
Cooking other grains together with white
rice
• The amount of other grains should be less than
20% of the volume of the white rice.
• Place the other grains on top of the white rice.
Mixing them together may result in improperly
cooked food.
• Do not mix in amaranth or other small grains
that may cause clogging.
Cooking other grains together with brown
rice
Be sure to select the “Brown” menu.
• The maximum acceptable amount for the
combination of brown rice and other grains is 2
cups.
Cooking brown rice mixed in with white
rice
• If the rice to be cooked includes more brown
rice than white rice, select the “Brown” menu.
• If there is an equal amount of brown rice and
white rice, or there is more white rice than brown
rice, select the “Plain” menu. (Soak the brown
rice separately for 1 to 2 hours before cooking.)

not be cooked properly.
If other ingredients are to be added to the rice,
see P.15.
Do not mix in amaranth or other small grains
that may cause clogging. Doing so may cause a
clogged pressure adjusting holes or safety valve,
which may lead to steam leaks or boiling over,
resulting in burns or other injuries.
2 Rinse the rice. (Rice can be
rinsed in the inner pot.)
For rinse-free rice, see P.14.
Note
Do not use hot water (over 35°C) to rinse the rice
or when adding water. It may prevent the rice
from cooking properly.

Place the inner pot on a level surface and
adjust the water level to the appropriate line
of the corresponding scale on the inside of
the pot.
Tips
The water level should be selected according
to the type of rice and the selected cooking
menu, but can be ne-adjusted to your personal
preference. (See the guidelines on P.14.)

You can prepare the following dishes with ease.
Refer to the recipes listed in “Menu guide” (P.51)
for directions.
“Slow Cook” menu
Food is rst brought to near boiling and the heat
is then lowered for simmering. The temperature is
then lowered even further to continue simmering. By
gradually lowering the heating temperature in this
way, avors are enhanced and the liquids do not boil
down even when heated for a long period of time.
“Soup” menu
Soup is brought to boiling and the heat is then
lowered slightly.
Menu examples
Vegetable and chicken pot-au-feu, Braised Pork
→See Menu guide (P.51).
Unsuitable dishes
• Thickened foods such as curry sauce, stew, jam,
etc.
• Using baking soda or such other agent that
causes sudden foaming
• Recipes in commercially available cookbooks for
rice cookers
Heating ingredients or seasoning in a plastic bag,
etc.
Using unpeeled tomatoes or leafy vegetables that
may cause a clogged pressure adjusting holes
• Using parchment paper, aluminum foil, or
plastic wrap that may cause a clogged pressure
adjusting holes
• Fish paste, beans (to be simmered), and noodles
that expand in volume
• Using a lot of oil
Note
Caution should be exercised when making dishes
other than those described in “Menu guide”, as
they may boil over or may not be cooked properly.
Stir well before cooking to prevent seasonings
from settling at the bottom of the inner pot.
When simmering foods in broth, cool the broth
before cooking.
When using starch, add it at the end of cooking.
Adjust the amount of paste products such as sh
paste cakes as they expand with heat.
Some ingredients such as milk and soymilk
can boil over easily. Add them after heating
is completed and heat them no more than 5
minutes at a time. Adding these ingredients at the
beginning may cause them to boil over.
Basic cooking procedure

2 Add the ingredients to the inner
pot and close the lid.
Note
Use the “Plain” scale on the inside of the inner
pot as a reference. (See the table below.)
Using more than the maximum acceptable
amount can prevent proper boiling or cause the
contents to boil over. Be careful not to use less
than the minimum required amount, as that can
