Using “GABA” Menu
Method of Pre-germination
Precautions for “GABA” Cooking (no cooking preset time allowed)
In order to promote germination, soak brown rice for 16 hours in
water.
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.
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 6 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.
In GABA mode, preset on 4H, 5H, 6H may not be possible. If you want to preset the GABA, set up “ ”
When the GABA is selected,
2H is indicated in the display.
Pressing “Hrs” button increases
germination time by 2 hour.
Pressing “Min/My Mode” button

GABA time can be set-up by
0, 2, 4, 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.
