You will hear a buzzing noise after rice cooking starts. The noise comes from a fan that allows the heat inside to escape to the
outside and does not indicate a failure.
The buzzing and clinking noises you will hear while the rice is being cooked or kept warm are typical of IH cooking heaters
and do not indicate a failure.
The bubbling noise you will hear from the tank while the rice is being cooked is generated by air bubbles and does not
indicate an abnormality.
The bubbling noise you will hear when you open or close the lid after rice cooking is finished is generated by the air that is
released to the tank and does not indicate an abnormality. Opening the lid while the bubbling noise is being generated may
cause water to spill out of the tank.
Condensation may form on the heat sink during use. This is to prevent the rice from drying out and does not indicate an
abnormality.
