· Rice is too dry/hard after cooking.

If your rice is dry or hard/chewy when the cooker 

switches to 

Keep Warm

, additional water and 

cooking time will soften the rice. Depending on 

how dry your rice is, add ½ to 1 cup of water and 

stir through. Close the lid and press the White Rice 

button. When cooker switches to 

Keep Warm

 mode, 

open the lid and stir the rice to check the consistency. 

Repeat as necessary until rice is soft and moist.

Note:

Helpful

Hints:

· Do not use harsh 

abrasive cleaners, 

scouring pads or 

products that are not 

considered safe to use 

on nonstick coatings.

· If washing in the 

dishwasher, a slight 

discoloration to the inner 

pot and accessories 

may occur. This is 

cosmetic only and will 

not affect performance.

· Any other servicing 

should be performed by 

Aroma® Housewares.

The provided rice cooker 

cup is the equivalent to 

a 3/4 standard US cup

· Because rice varieties 

may vary in their 

make-up, results may 

differ. Here are some 

troubleshooting tips to 

help you achieve the 

desired consistency.

· Rice is too moist/soggy after cooking.

If your rice is still too moist or soggy when the cooker 

switches to 

Keep Warm

, use the serving spatula to stir 

the rice. This will redistribute the bottom (moistest) 

part of the rice as well as release excess moisture. 

Close the lid and allow to remain on 

Keep Warm

 

mode for 10-30 minutes as needed, opening the lid 

and stirring periodically to release excess moisture.
