Frequently Asked Questions - AR6290 SOLAC

How to prepare rice with the SOLAC AR6290 rice cooker?

Rinse the rice, pour it into the inner pot, add water up to the mark corresponding to the number of cups of rice. Insert the pot, plug in the appliance, and press the switch down to the cooking position. The red light turns on. After about 20 minutes, the switch automatically switches to keep warm. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Can I steam food at the same time as cooking rice?

Yes, you can use the steam accessory while cooking rice. The amount of rice should not exceed 4 cups (560 g). Place the food in the steam basket and set it on the inner pot. The cooking time depends on the food, and the appliance stays in cooking mode as long as there is water.

How to clean the rice cooker?

Always unplug the appliance before cleaning. Clean the inner pot with water and a non-abrasive detergent. The exterior body can be wiped with a damp cloth. Never immerse the body or cord in water. For the interior of the body, use a dry cloth after cooling.

What if the red light does not turn on?

Check that the inner pot is properly inserted and exerts sufficient pressure on the heating plate. Without this, the switch cannot select cooking mode. Also ensure the appliance is plugged in and the outlet works.

Does the cooker turn off automatically?

Yes, the cooker automatically switches to keep warm mode once cooking is complete. Additionally, it is equipped with a thermal safety device that cuts off power in case of overheating.

What is the maximum rice capacity?

Can I use the appliance without the inner pot?

No, never plug in the cooker without the inner pot or with an empty pot. This would activate the heating function and could damage the appliance.

Is the inner pot removable?

3 OPERATION

FOR COOKING RICE

1 Clean the rice and pour it into the container (2). You can use the dispensing vessel (14) to calculate the quantity.
2 Add water, depending on the type of rice used and the amount of cooking required. If using the dispensing vessel, the marks inside the container indicate the quantity of water that must be added. For example: if you add 5 glasses of rice pour the water in until it reaches the mark corresponding to 5 on the inside of the container (2). (fig. 1)
3 Put the container (2) inside the casing and move it gently, making sure it touches the heating plate (3). (fig.2).
4 Plug the connection cord (7) into the socket (6) and connect the other end to the mains. Then press the switch by selecting the cooking position, when the red pilot lamp (9) will light up, indicating that the rice is being cooked (fig.3).
5 Once the rice is cooked, after approximately 20 minutes, the switch (11) will automatically move to the heating function, when the orange pilot light (10) will go on.

6 Leave the rice with the lid (1) on for 10 minutes before serving.
7 While the heating function is selected, the rice temperature will be maintained at between approximately 60^ and 70^ .
8 Unplug the connection cord when the rice no longer needs to be kept warm, and in all cases before removing the container (2).

STEAMING

Use the switch to select the cooking position and maintain this position for the required length of time, depending on the type of food (vegetables, fish.) and amount of cooking required. In this case, the appliance will not automatically change to the warming function, but continue in the cooking position, provided there is water inside the container.
2 If using the steaming accessory when cooking rice, the quantity of rice must not exceed 4 cups, equivalent to 560 grams.
3 When handling the steaming accessory (12) when hot, please use the handle supplier (13) (Fig. 5).

4 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Check the appliance is not connected to the mains before starting to clean it.
The container and casing must always be cleaned to prevent any food particles, rice grains or any other type of dirt from adhering to them. There must be no external particles between the container (2) and heating plate (3) as otherwise the rice cooker operation could be affected and the components might even be burned.
Never immerse the rice cooker casing or connection cable in water. Wipe the outside with a dry cloth. Use a dry cloth to clean the inside of the casing (5), once the element is dry. Clean the container using water and a non-corrosive detergent for best results.

5 SAFETY SYSTEM

When the appliance has been plugged into the mains, to select the cooking position with the switch (11), the container must be placed inside the casing (5) with some weight inside, as if not, the switch will not allow you to select this position. However, do not plug in the rice cooker if the container is not inside or empty, since the warming function will start to operate.
