TURBO GLUTIN. RICEPressing ‘COOK/TURBO’ button twice will switch to quick cooking and shorten the cooking time. (It takes about 13 minutes when you cook the Glutinous rice for 2 persons.) Use this turbo cooking function only for cooking rice for less than 6 persons.

TURBO MIXED RICEIf selected turbo mixed rice, total cooking time will be reduced. (It takes about 26 minutes for cooking mixed rice for 2 persons.) Turbo mixed rice cooking lessens the quality of food, so only use for less than 6 people. After cooking in turbo mode or cooking of small serving, discard water.

Melanoizing phenomenon

The cooked rice can be light yellow at the bottom of the oven, because this product is designed to improve pleasant flavor and taste. Especially, melanoizing is more serious at the "Preset cooking" than just "Cooking". It does not mean malfunction.

When mixing other rice with glutinous (white) rice, the Melanoizing phenomenon could increase.

  1. Put water until water scale 2, make sure to close and lock the cover.
  2. During Stand-by mode, press the Auto Clean button to select auto clean, then press the ‘COOK/TURBO’ button to start cleaning.
