Instruccions importants de seguretat

Quan s'utilitzen aparells elèctrics, sempre s'han de seguir les precaucions bàsiques de seguretat, incloses les següents:

• Llegiu totes les instruccions abans d'utilitzar.
• No toqueu superfícies calentes. Utilitzeu nanses o poms.
• Per protegir-vos contra les descàrregues elèctriques, no submergiu el cable, els endolls ni l'aparell en aigua ni en altres líquids.
• És necessària una supervisió estreta quan qualsevol aparell és utilitzat per o a prop dels nens.
• Desendolleu la presa de corrent quan no utilitzeu i abans de netejar. Deixeu refredar abans de posar o treure peces.
• No feu servir cap aparell amb un cable o un endoll danyats o després que l'aparell funcioni malament o s'hagi fet malbé de cap manera. Torneu l'aparell al centre de servei autoritzat més proper per examinar-lo, reparar-lo o ajustar-lo.
• L'ús d'accessoris no recomanats pel fabricant de l'aparell pot causar lesions.
• No utilitzar a l'aire lliure.
• No deixeu que el cable pengi de la vora de la taula o del taulell, ni toqui superfícies calentes.
• No col·loqueu-lo sobre o prop d'un cremador de gas o elèctric calent, ni en un forn calent.
• Cal extremar la precaució quan es mou un aparell que contingui oli calent o altres líquids calents.
• Connecteu sempre primer l'endoll a l'aparell i després el cable a la presa de corrent. Per desconnectar-lo, gireu qualsevol control a la posició "off" i, a continuació, retireu l'endoll de la presa de corrent.
• No utilitzeu l'aparell per a un altre ús que el previst.
• Aquest aparell té un endoll polaritzat (una fulla és més ampla que l'altra). Per reduir el risc de descàrrega elèctrica, aquest endoll està pensat per encaixar en una presa de corrent polaritzada només d'una manera. Si l'endoll no encaixa completament a la presa de corrent, inverteix l'endoll. Si encara no encaixa, poseu-vos en contacte amb un electricista qualificat. No intenteu modificar l'endoll de cap manera.

5. Place the inner pot into the main rice cooker unit, ensuring it is seated properly.

Menjar al vapor

The NARITA NRC-150 allows you to steam vegetables, dumplings, or other foods simultaneously with rice cooking, or independently.

1. If steaming with rice, follow steps 1-6 for cooking rice.
2. Place the food to be steamed into the steam tray. Ensure food is cut into uniform pieces for even cooking.
3. Place the steam tray onto the inner pot (above the rice and water, if cooking rice).
4. Cobrir amb la tapa de vidre.
5. Proceed with cooking as described in the "Cooking Rice" section. The steam generated from the cooking rice will cook the food in the steam tray.

7. Once steaming is complete, carefully remove the steam tray using oven mitts or a cloth, as it will be hot.
