Wash the rice in a seive till water runs clear. Use a cup of rice to a cup of water. Or if you have measurement levels on the inside, fill water up to the number of cups of rice you have put in. Cup size is more like an oriental cup size than a regular teacup.
Hope this helps.

you can put 2 1/2 cups of water and and two cups of rice this will make 1 quart of rice, if you want the 6 cup then add 2 1/2 cups of water per one cup of rice.

The manual is not online. ou may be able to orer one from www.Rivalproducts.com
Rice to water is one to one, add 1/2 cup water for white rice, 3/4 cup extra for brown rice.

Usually you want to put I dose of rice and 2 doses of water.

You can download the manual from Rival here, and that should give you all the answers.

you should have a "lever: you push down to cook and it will "pop" up when the rice is finshed, your cooker holds 6 Cups cooked rice, use 2 cups medium grain rice/ 3 cups water this should yeild you 6 cups of cooked rice, let sit about 4 min after the lever pops up to allow rice to finish steaming

HELLO THERE
I think that you might need to refer to the users manual on the operation of this rice cooker some cookers need to be shut off after a certain time to allow for the steam to cook the rice the rest of the way some may need less water some need more depends on the type of rice that makes a big difference ok?
best regards michael

hello there
here it is pretty simple ok
Use a 1:1 ratio of rice to water plus ½ cup of water for white rice and a 1:1 ratio plus ¾ cup of water for brown rice. hope that is verry helpfull
best regards michael

1 cup of rice in the rival cup does NOT equal 1 cup of rice in a regular measuring cup. I lost mine too and I've found that using 3/4 cup of a regular measuring cup works with the lines on the inside of the pot

here is the website to get the manual. but as far as the recipe book you can always go on to the rival website and get it there as well.

the pot is not suppose to be a tight fit. now if there is more and half an inch space then it is a manufacturer defective. but if there is less than half an inch then that's normal cause you have to be able to take it out and wash it. as long as it doesn't rattle when cooking everything is fine

i copied the website for you so you can download it. when the page comes up it's right under the picture. just click on that and it will pull it up under adobe reader. any more questions don't hesitate to ask

the best place that you can try locally for a lid replacement would like target or wal-mart if you have one in your area. or any type of hardware store possibly. If those places don't have them the only other thing you would be able to do is call the manufacturer and get another lid that way.
