Troubleshooting
Rice is too dry/hard after cooking.
· If your rice is dry or hard/chewy when the
cooker switches to
Warm
, additional water and
cooking time will soften the rice. Depending on
how dry your rice is, add ½ to 1 cup of water
using the provided large 900mL measuring
cup and stir thoroughly. Place the lid on and
initiate another cooking cycle. When the
cooker switches to
Warm
, remove the lid and
stir the rice to check the consistency. Repeat as
necessary until rice is soft and moist.
Rice is too moist/soggy after cooking.
· If your rice is still too moist or soggy when
the cooker switches to
Warm
, use the serving
spatula to stir the rice. This will redistribute
the bottom (moist) part of the rice as well as
release excess moisture. Place the lid on and
allow the rice to remain on
Warm
for 10-30
minutes as needed, removing the lid and
stirring periodically to release excess moisture.
Note:
·We recommend hand
washing the inner pot
with warm, soapy water
to lengthen its lifespan
and avoid damage
over time. If washing in
a dishwasher, a slight
discoloration to the
inner pot may occur.
This is cosmetic and will
not negatively affect
performance.
·Any other servicing
should be performed by
Aroma
®
Housewares.
Note:
·Because rice varieties
may vary in their make-
up, results may differ.
Note:
·Before placing the inner
pot into the cooker,
check that the inner pot
is dry and free of debris.
Adding the inner pot
when wet may damage
the cooker.
·Food should not be left
in the cooker on
Warm
for more than 12 hours.
Caution:
The rice cooker will not
switch to
Warm
until all
liquid has evaporated.
Follow your recipe
carefully and do not
leave the rice cooker
unattended.
