If smaller germ is preferred, omit pre-germination process. Select “GABA” menu, set-up appropriate
germination time, and start cooking (nutrient ingredients do not vary significantly by the size of germ).
During hot seasons, longer germination time may generate odor. Reduce germination time.
GABA cooking is allowed up to 4 persons.
City water can be used for germination. However, spring water is recommended. Germination may not
be properly performed in hot or boiled water even after cooling.
Germination rate, germ growth may differ by the Brown rice kind, condition or period of storing, etc.
- Germinated brown rice is sprouted brown rice. Germination rate and growth may differ by the Brown rice kind.
The brown rice should be within 1 year from harvest, and not long since pounded.
Put washed brown rice in an appropriate container, pour sufficient water to soak the rice.
Pre-germination shall not exceed 16 hours. Make sure to wash rice clean with flowing water before using
“GABA” menu. Be careful that too hard washing may take off embryos which generate the germination.
Unique smell may be generated according to the soaking time of pre-germination.
When pro-germination has been completed, wash the rice and put in inner pot (Oven).
Pour appropriated volume of water, and use “GABA” menu.
In summer or hot temperature environment odor may be generated. Reduce germination time and wash
clean when cooking.
When the “GABA” is selected,
“4H” is indicated in the display.
Pressing Hrs button increases
germination time by 1 hour.
Pressing Min/My Mode button
decreases germination time by 1 hour.
GABA time can be set-up by
0, 4, 5, 6 hours.
If “GABA” time is set “0” hours,
pressing Pressure Cook/Turbo
button will start cooking immediately.
To cook without germination or
cooking germinated Brown rice, set
the time at “0”.
Pressing Pressure Cook/Turbo
button will begin the “GABA”
process, after which. cooking will
begin immediately.
During “GABA” mode, “Cook”
indicator will be lit together with
the germination time left.
