How to make Porridge in a Panasonic Rice Cooker.

Preparations

1. Measure porridge with the measuring cup provided.
   • The volume of the measuring cup is about 180 mL.
   • The amount of porridge is 0.5 - 1 cup.
2. Add the washed porridge into the inner pan.
   • Use water line on the inner pan to measure cooking quantity.
     Example : When the porridge quantity is 1.0 measuring cups, put porridge into the inner pan, then add water into the inner pan till the water surface reaches scale “1.0” at water line of “Porridge”.
     
     
      
   • Dry the outside surface of the inner pan. If it is wet, it may cause noise while cooking. Any foreign matters between the inner pan and the cast heater may damage the unit.
   • Make sure that the inner pan is on leveled surface.  
3. Put the inner pan into the body and close the outer lid.
   1. Press down the Outer Lid until a sound of “click” is heard.
