[. . . ] Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Allow the appliance and accessories to cool completely before cleaning and storing them. [. . . ] If the cooking bowl 7 is not correctly positioned, the function selector switch 5 cannot be moved to the setting "Cooking". As soon as the rice is cooked, the rice cooker switches itself automatically back to the keep-warm setting. The red control lamp 4 extinguishes and the yellow control lamp 3 starts to glow. Allow the rice to stand for at least 15 minutes in the cooking bowl 7 - with the lid on 1 on. Subject to the type/sort of rice being prepared, it could be that you may have to insert a little more or less water to achieve an optimal cooking result. When the cooking bowl 7 is full, place it back in the rice cooker housing. Turn the bowl left and right to make certain that it is well seated on the heating plate. To avoid dirtying the cooking area, ensure that there is no moisture or rice located on the outside of the cooking bowl 7. Insert the power cable into the socket 6 on the rear of the appliance. If the rice needs to be kept warm for an extended period, wait until shortly before eating before stirring the rice. Do not remove the lid 1 while the rice is being kept warm and do not leave the rice in the appliance for longer than 2 hours. When the cooking and keep-warm processes are complete, empty the catchment container for condensed water 2. Always pull the power plug out of the power socket when no longer using the rice cooker. Do not lift the steaming attachment 9 up during the steaming process - the escaping steam brings with it the real risk of scalding.
