I discovered this this morning after posting the original e-mail.
I didn't post a followup at the time, as I had to get ready for
my cancer support group meeting. But yes, I did find a link
(http://www.wikihow.com/Cook-Rice-in-a-Rice-Cooker) that went into
more detail.

No instructions came with the rice. It has the usual nutritional
info, some Thai, and "Jasmine Brown Rice" on the label.

Actually, the cooker's instructions only refer to "brown rice" and
"white rice" ... nothing beyond that. They do have a little section
where they mention Jasmine rice, but they don't say much about it.

Thanks. That's a good "general rule" that I hope to remember....
