BEFORE USING YOUR RICE COOKER  
FOR THE FIRST TIME  
Remove all packaging from the Rice Cooker. Remove any labels from  
the outer stainless steel surfaces.  
Wash Inner Pot, Stainless Steel Steamer Insert, Stainless Steel Lid,  
Rice Measuring Cup and Rice Paddle in warm, soapy water. Rinse  
and dry well.  
If the outside of the Inner Pot is wet when placed into the Rice Cooker,  
this may cause a cracking noise while the unit heats up. Also, this may  
cause damage to the inner working of the appliance, so always wipe  
the outside of the Inner Pot completely dry before use.  
DO NOT IMMERSE THE HEATING BODY OF THE RICE COOKER IN WATER  
OR ANY OTHER LIQUID!  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION

inside the Heating Body.  
• Always be sure the Inner Pot contains liquid, or be ready to add oil,  
butter or margarine immediately to the Inner Pot when you plug in  
the Rice Cooker.  
• Remember that the Rice Measuring Cup is not a standard measuring  
cup. When filled, it measures approximately 3/4 cup.  
• Never wash any removable parts of the Cooker in the dishwasher.  
• Save these instructions and refer to them often.  
• Be careful not to dent the Inner Pot, especially the bottom of it. To  
work properly and produce the best cooking results, the Inner Pot  
must fit snugly on top of the Thermostat.  
• DO NOT let loose grains of rice or other food particles fall into the  
bottom of the Heating Body because they might prevent the  
Thermostat from fitting tightly against the bottom of the Inner Pot  
and cause inadequate cooking.  
• Never use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads because they can  
damage the finish of both the Inner Pot and Heating Body.  
• Save these instructions and refer to them often.

Operating Instructions  
COOKING RICE  
Many varieties of rice can be used, including basmati, wild, black  
rice, arborio, risotto, saffron rice, brown, and long grain. We do  
not recommend using instant rice with this Rice Cooker.  
1. Measure the amount of rice that you would like to cook.  
A 180 ml (3/4 cup) Rice Measuring Cup is included with your  
Rice Cooker. Filling the cup with rice makes approximately  
2-1/4 cups of cooked rice.  
NOTE: Make sure that the rice is leveled when the cup is filled. The  
Russell Hobbs® 10 Cup Automatic Rice Cooker has the  
capacity for 10 Rice Measuring Cups of dry rice.  
2. For Best Results...  
Pour desired amount of rice into a separate container. Wash  
and rinse the rice until the rinse water is clear.*  
3. Take the Inner Pot out of the Rice Cooker.  
Place the washed rice into the Inner Pot and add appropriate  
amount of water. (If you are making 10 cups of dry rice, add  
water to the “10” mark in the inside of the Inner Pot.)  
Use Rice Measuring Cup  
provided to measure 10 level  
Rice Measuring Cups of rice.  
Rinse, if desired.  
Add rice to the Inner Pot.  
the 10-cup line  
Add water up to  
4. Replace the Inner Pot back into the Automatic Rice Cooker’s  
Heating Body.  
Rotate it slightly to make sure that it is well seated on the  
Heating Plate.  
NOTE: Make sure to always wipe down the outer surface of the  
Inner Pot. If the Inner Pot is wet when placed into the  
Heating Body of the Rice Cooker, this may cause a  
cracking noise while the unit heats up. Keep the outer  
surface dry to prevent damage to the inner workings of  
the appliance.

Operating Instructions  
(Continued)  
5. Replace the Stainless Steel Lid.  
CAUTION: Do not operate the Automatic Rice Cooker without  
replacing the Stainless Steel Lid. Burns or other serious  
injury may occur.  
6. Plug the Automatic Rice Cooker into a 120V AC  
electrical outlet.  
Press the Rice Cooking Selector Lever down and the COOK

Cooking Rice  
GENERAL INFORMATION  
Rice is grown on marshy land that floods easily. It does not need  
to be milled or ground; only the outer husks must be removed,  
leaving behind what is known as brown or whole rice, the most  
nutritious of rices.  
Information has recently been published about more healthful  
ways to eat, by consuming less fat, less protein and more  
complex carbohydrates in our diets. Because brown rice is about  
8% protein, 87% carbohydrates and almost no fat, it is a perfect  
ingredient in a healthful diet.  
Because rice is a valuable source of carbohydrates, it is starchy  
by nature. To obtain fluffier, less starchy rice, you can rinse the rice  
before cooking. But by rinsing or soaking the rice, you lose some  
of the vitamins, which are water soluble. Therefore, rinsing or  
soaking rice is not recommended because of the nutrient loss.  
TYPES OF RICE  
BROWN RICE - Contains more vitamin B complex, iron and  
calcium and takes longer to cook (about 50 minutes) than white  
rice. Its flavor is nutty and its texture is chewy. (See Cooking  
Chart.)  
WHITE RICE - Includes several kinds of white rice, most of which  
can be prepared in your Russell Hobbs® Automatic Rice Cooker.  
(See Cooking Chart.)  
LONG-GRAIN RICE - Less starchy than short-grain rice, so it  
separates into individual grains more than short-grain rice.  
SHORT-GRAIN RICE - More moist and tender than long-grain rice.  
It has a softer texture and starchier flavor.  
White rice will take about 20-25 minutes to cook, (brown rice  
approximately 50 minutes). When rice is done, the Russell Hobbs®  
Automatic Rice Cooker will automatically go into the ON/WARM  
Mode and the ON/WARM Light will go on. Allow rice to stand on  
ON/WARM for 10 to 15 minutes to ensure fluffy rice. You can keep  
cooked rice on the ON/WARM setting for several hours without  
the taste of the rice being affected. Do not remove Cover until  
ready to serve. The Inner Pot remains very hot after cooking or  
keeping warm. Use a pot holder when handling.

Why Rice?  
Grains (including rice) are finally getting the attention they  
deserve as they move into the nutritional spotlight. The new USDA  
dietary recommendations highlight grains as an essential part of a  
healthy, whole foods diet. With their impressive fiber, complex  
carbohydrates and protein profiles, they are, without a doubt,  
some of Mother Nature’s most perfect foods.  
Grains are the edible portion of cereal plants. The grain or kernel  
is technically a complete fruit and houses most of its nutritional  
value. In addition to their high fiber content, grains are an  
excellent source of B vitamins and many minerals, including  
magnesium, iron, zinc, potassium and selenium. The germ oils  
found in the germ layers of whole grains contain vitamin E, an  
important antioxidant.  
Grain Glossary  
RICE is a staple food in many countries. Although long-grain rice is  
consumed more than any other rice around the world, it is inferior  
to brown rice in both taste and nutrition. Brown rice is not only  
more complete nutritionally, it has a wonderful nutty aroma  
and flavor.  
POLISHED RICE (white) has been bleached, cleaned, pearled  
(polished with talc), then often oiled and coated. This refining  
process causes the loss of its hull, bran and germ, which are  
removed from the grain (along with most of its nutrients) leaving  
only the starchy endosperm. As white rice is rather bland when  
eaten by itself, it is usually served under steamed or sauteed  
vegetables and topped with a flavorful sauce, such as curry  
or peanut.  
LONG GRAIN BROWN RICE contains fiber and the nutrient-rich  
bran and germ, as well as the starchy endosperm. In addition to  
being more flavorful, brown rice digests more slowly, which  
provides energy over a longer period of time. Brown rice is a  
satisfying meal companion and can even serve as the main focus  
for a meal. While not as high in protein as wheat and some other  
grains (10%), the high quality protein in brown rice is easily utilized  
by the body. Brown rice is also a good source of the B vitamins  
and serval minerals, including magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron,  
and selenium.

Steaming Food  
GENERAL INFORMATION  
Keep the Stainless Steel Lid on while cooking or steaming food,  
unless the recipe or chart specially calls for removing it. By  
removing the Stainless Steel Lid unnecessarily, you lose steam and  
valuable time. If you must remove it to stir or to add an  
ingredient, have the Rice Paddle or ingredient ready, add it, stir  
quickly and just as quickly replace the Lid.  
USING THE STEAMER INSERT  
The Steamer Insert is specifically designed to steam vegetables. It  
can also be used to reheat foods, or steam frozen foods such as  
pot stickers. Use the Steamer Insert while cooking rice*, or as a  
stand-alone steamer by adding water to the Inner Pot.  
1. Clean and prepare your vegetables. Cut vegetables into  
bite-sized pieces.  
2. Place the Inner Pot into the Rice Cooker Body. Be sure the  
Inner Pot is seated properly. Measure appropriate amount of  
water and add to Inner Pot (see water measurements/time  
following).  
3. When steaming smaller vegetables or chunks, place  
vegetables directly into the Steamer Insert. (If you are cooking  
combinations of vegetables, be sure they require the same  
cooking time and also cut pieces uniformly to assure all  
vegetables will be finished steaming at the same time.)  
4. Then place the Steamer Insert onto the rim of the Inner Pot  
and cover with Stainless Steel Lid.  
5. Plug the cord into a 120V AC electrical outlet. Press the Rice  
Cooking Selector Lever down to the COOK position. Make  
sure the COOK Light is on. Steaming will start shortly.  
6. Allow vegetables to steam to desired doneness. See  
Vegetable Steaming Chart.  
NOTE: When steaming foods for longer periods of time, it is  
necessary to periodically check water level so that the Inner  
Pot does not boil dry.  
7. The Rice Cooker may automatically switch to WARM. If  
additional cooking is desired, unplug the unit and add more  
water. Replace the Stainless Steel Lid. Plug in the Rice Cooker,  
press the Rice Cooking Selector Lever down to COOK position  
and your Rice Cooker will resume steaming.

rice kernels that may prevent the Stainless  
Steel Lid from closing all the way. Be sure the  
area is clean.  
between Stainless  
Steel Lid and Inner  
Pot during cooking.  
Warmed rice  
smells bad or  
discolored.  
For best results, don’t use the WARM  
option with brown rice. The bran in  
unrefined grains can “break down”  
when kept at low heat for extended  
periods of time, causing an unpleasant  
smell and taste.  
Make sure the Stainless Steel Lid is  
properly centered in position over  
Inner Pot when using the WARM  
option.  
Be sure to wash the Inner Pot after  
each use.  
Make sure you don’t leave the Serving  
Rice Paddle or other plastics in the  
Automatic Rice Cooker while it is  
cooking or warming.  
If none of these Trouble Shooting solutions are successful, contact
