Philips hd4706 Manual De Usuario

 1 

 Clean the separate parts of the rice cooker thoroughly before using the appliance for the 

first time (see chapter ‘Cleaning’). Make sure all parts are completely dry before you start 

using the appliance.

  

 Attach the scoop holder to the main body of the rice cooker (Fig. ).

 1 

 Measure the rice using the measuring cup provided.

Each cup of uncooked rice normally gives 2 bowls of cooked rice. Do not exceed the quantities 

indicated on the inside of the inner pot.

HD4702: 3-10 cups of rice

HD4706: 1-5.5 cups of rice 

  

 Wash the rice thoroughly.

Use a separate container to wash the rice to avoid damaging the non-stick coating of the inner pot.

  

 Pour the pre-washed rice into the inner pot. 

  

 Add water to the level indicated on the scale inside the pot that corresponds to the number 

of cups of rice used. Then smooth the rice surface. 

For instance, if you cook 4 cups of rice, add water up to the 4-cup level indicated on the scale.

 5 

 Press the release button and open the lid by means of the handle.

 6 

 Put the inner pot in the rice cooker. Check if the inner pot is in proper contact with the 

heating plate.

Make sure that the outside of the inner pot is dry and clean and that there is no foreign residue on 

the heating plate or the magnetic switch.

 7 

 Close the lid of the rice cooker and put the plug in the wall socket.

The cook light goes on.

 8 

 Press the control lever down to start the cooking process (Fig. 5).

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

on automatically (Fig. 6).

Note:  If you do not press the control lever down, the cook light will go out after a few minutes and 

the keep-warm light will go on automatically.

 9 

 Open the lid and stir the rice (Fig. 7).

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 will give 

fluffier rice.

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

‘Rice cooking’). 

 1 

 Follow steps 1 to 6 in section ‘Rice cooking’. When measuring the rice, make sure there is 

enough room left for the steam tray.
