• Taste will be greatly enhanced.
• Easier to digest and is rich in nutrients. Diabetic hormone is generated, improving digestion.
• Good as a health food for children or adults. Rich with dietary fiber.
• Germinated brown rice has rich GABA (Gamma Aminobutyric Acid). GABA promotes metabolism in he liver and kidneys, suppresses neutral fat, lowers blood pressure, promotes metabolism in brain cells – these effects have been proven by medical science.

Using “GABA” Menu

1. In order to promote germination, soak brown rice for 16 hours in water.
   Method of Pre-germination
   • Put washed brown rice in an appropriate container, pour a sufficient amount of water to soak the rice..
   • Pre-germination shall not exceed 16 hours. Make sure to rinse the rice clean with flowing water before using the “GABA” menu. Be careful not to rinse too much, or else the embryos that are required to germinate may wear off.
   • A unique smell may be generated according to the soaking time of pre-germination
   • When pre-germination has been completed, wash the rice and insert the inner pot. Pour an appropriate amount of water and use the “GABA” menu.
   • During summer or a hot temperature environment, an odor may be generated. Reduce germination time and wash clean when cooking.
2. Set the Lock/Unlock handle at Lock, press the Menu button to select “GABA”
   • When cooking brown rice with or without germination, select the “Brown Rice” option and start cooking.
3. Press Pressure Cook/Glutin. Turbo button.
   • If you press the Pressure Cook/Glutin Turbo button, the brown rice will start to germinate for the set time, and cooking will start after germination is complete.
   • When germinating the brown rice, the remaining time will be displayed.

When the “GABA” is selected, “3H” is indicated in the display

1. If a smaller germ is preferred, omit the pre-germination process. Select the “GABA” menu, set up the appropriate germination time, and start cooking (nutrient ingredients do not vary significantly by the size of the germ).
2. During hot seasons, longer germination times may generate odor. Reduce germination time.
3. GABA cooking feeds up to 6 people
4. City water can be used for germination. However, filtered or drinkable water is recommended. Germination may not be properly performed in hot or boiled water after cooking.
5. Germination rate and germ growth may differ by the type of brown rice, condition, or period of storage. The brown rice should be within 1 year of harvest, and not long since pounded.
6. In GABA mode, preset on 3H may not be possible. If you want to preset the GABA, set up the BROWN RICE menu. (See page 21)
7. The taste of rice could be different depending on the kind of brown rice. Use the customized taste function or control the amount of water for your taste. (Refer to page 19)
8. Depending on the user’s environment or the condition of the rice, the sprout may not be visible.
