When the cooking process is finished, the cook light goes out and the keep-warm light goes

 Open the lid and stir the rice (Fig. 6).

For the best results, do this just after the keep-warm light has gone on.Then close the lid firmly to 

continue the keep-warm function. Stirring the rice allows excess steam to escape. This gives fluffier 

rice.

The steaming function may only be used in combination with the rice cooking function (see section

‘Cooking rice’ in this chapter).

To ensure even steaming, spread out the food evenly and do not pile it up.
