CAUTION : a. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. b. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. c. The use of extension cords is not recommended. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. 01SR-HZ106EIGeng.indd301SR-HZ106EIGeng.indd3 2016/07/2118:56:222016/07/2118:56:22 Refine_16-07-21 19:06:02 Refine_0003_01_SR-HZ106_EIG_eng.p1.pdf Refine_16-06-07 11:24:28 Refine_0002_01_SR-HZ106_EIG_eng.p1.pdf2 16-08-04 20:06:20 100103270_SR-HZ105_Tori4 Safety Precautions In order to prevent accidents or injuries to the user, other people, and damage to property, please follow the instructions below.● The following charts indicate the degree of damage caused by wrong operation.

portions atop plastic wrap, gently flatten out the portions and then wrap them. (Approx. 1 in. / 3cm thickness) Once the portions have cooled to room temperature, put them in the freezer.Tips for Freezing●Freeze the rice quickly. (Because keeping the cooked rice warm for a long period of time diminishes its fl avor.)

Put the rice on an aluminum tray and then freeze it to help preserve its quality.(Because this will make it freeze more quickly.)How to Thaw (Warm) Rice

Please follow your microwave's operating instructions.If thawing (warming) rice is not addressed in the operating instructions, use the approximate heating times below as a guide and adjust based on how done the rice is.Approximate Heating Time1 portion: approx. 2/3 cup (approx. 5.3 oz. / 150

Cooking/Keep Warm StateThe Rice Cooker is making a noise. ●Whirring noise Sound of fan that allows heat to escape operating.●High-pitched noise Sound of IH (induction heating).You may sometimes hear this when keeping warm.●Hissing noise Sound of steam jetting out.When opening/closing the Outer Lid●Clacking noise Sound of the ball in the Steam Cap rolling.

TimerCooking begins immediately despite use of timer. ●Is the current time correct? (The time is displayed in 24-hour clock format.)●Has the timer been set to a time outside the “Timer Setting Restriction”?

I have set the timer but cooking doesn’t start. ●When using the timer, the rice is soaked before cooking starts, and so the soaking time after cooking starts is shorter.Consequently, cooking starts slightly later than might be expected.

The cooking, depending on cooking settings, may start around 40 minutes before the rice is due to be ready.

The rice is not ready at the time set on the timer. ●Is the current time correct? (The time is displayed in 24-hour clock format.)●Have you pressed the “Start” button?●Has the timer been set to a time outside the “Timer Setting Restriction”?
