Presto 5810 ユーザーズマニュアル

• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is 

intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still 
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

• A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer 

cord. An extension cord may be used if care is properly exercised in its use.

• If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical 

rating of the appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop 
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

  1.  Remove all packaging materials.
  2.  Become familiar with the various 

parts of the rice cooker  
(Fig. A) and read and follow the 
instructions carefully.

  3.  Wash the rice pot and accessories 

according to the “Care and 
Cleaning” instructions, steps 2 
through 4 on page 4.

Important: For proper heat transfer between the rice cooker base and the removable pot, before 
each use, be sure the bottom of the removable pot and the heating plate within the rice cooker 
base (Fig. B) are free of debris. In addition, to prevent electrical shock, be sure the outside of the 
removable pot is completely dry before placing it into the rice cooker base.

  1.  Place the rice cooker on a dry, level, heat resistant surface. To avoid steam damage to 

cabinets, position the rice cooker so it is not directly under cabinets.

  2.  Remove the rice cooker cover and set it aside. Remove the rice pot if it is in place.
  3.  Using the rice measuring scoop provided, measure the desired amount of rice and pour into the pot*. One level scoop 

of uncooked rice will yield 2 scoops of cooked rice. Note: The rice measuring scoop provided is 180 ml or 6 ounces, 
the rice industry standard, rather than 240 ml or 8 ounces.

  4.  Using the water measurement lines inside the pot (Fig. A), fill the pot with the appropriate amount of water (see the 

chart on page 3). For example, if cooking 2 measuring scoops of rice, add enough water to fill up to line 2 marked on 
the pot. Note that the liquid measurement is also included in the chart, if you prefer to measure the water with a liquid 
measuring cup. Water amounts may be adjusted for firmer or moister rice; see “Helpful Hints” on page 5. Never 
exceed the “MAX” fill level. Overfilling may result in water boiling over the top of the rice pot.

  5.  Make sure the exterior of the rice pot is dry and clean. Then place the pot into the cooker base so it is centered and the 

bottom is in direct contact with the heating plate (Fig. B). Failure to correctly position the pot may result in the rice 
cooker malfunctioning.

    Caution: Never add water to the cooker base or cook without the pot in place.
  6.  Place the cover on the rim of the removable pot so the steam vent is positioned away from the user and plug the rice 

cooker into a 120 volt wall outlet.
