Oster Rice Cooker Instructions

How to cook rice with Oster rice cooker

1. Measure the amount of rice you would like to cook.
2. Wash the measured rice in a separate bowl until water is clear.
3. Place rice in the INNER POT and add the corresponding amount of water. For example, if you are making 5 Oster™ cups of uncooked rice, add water after adding rice to the “5” mark on the inner bowl.
4. Set the INNER POT into the rice cooker. Make sure that the INNER POT is in direct contact with the heating BASE by turning it slightly from left to right until it properly fits onto the heating BASE.
5. Cover with the LID.
6. Plug the cord into a 120 Volt AC electrical outlet. Switch the rice cooker ON by pushing the button down. Make sure the COOK indicator light is illuminated. Steaming will begin shortly.
7. The switch will pop up and the KEEP WARM indicator light will come on when all the water in the RICE COOKER has evaporated. NOTE: You may need to add more water and set the rice cooker to COOK more than once depending on your own personal tastes.
8. After cooking, the KEEP WARM indicator light will illuminate. For best results, let the rice stand for 10-15 minutes of steaming without removing the LID. Carefully open the LID, taking care to avoid escaping steam. Use the RICE LADLE, or other long handled utensil, to mix the rice well to allow steam to escape.
9. Allow the appliance to cool completely and unplug before cleaning.
10. Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet when not in use.
