Notes
O
If there is insufficient time for the timer setting, the timer will not allow the setting, and cooking will start
immediately. (See “Timer Setting Restrictions” on P.34.)
O
The timer cannot be used with the “Quick” or “Mixed” programs. We do not recommend using it for the
“Casserole” program.
O
If the timer setting is 13 hours or longer (8 hours when the water temperature is high), the rice may ferment,
generating undesirable odours.
O
When cooking with the timer, the time until the rice is ready is not displayed.
O
When cooking with the timer, the rice may absorb excess water. This can result in the rice becoming soft or
burnt.

The Warm Jar can be used to cook nutritious food such as
cakes, or soups with beans or vegetables.

During cooking...
O
Do not place a lid or cover directly on the food.
O
The results are affected by the size, quantity and
temperature of the ingredients.
(
If the sizes of the various ingredients are too large
)
or the quantity is too large, the contents may boil
over or be undercooked.
If the resulting food is undercooked, reselect a
program and cook it for longer.
After cooking...

O
Always wash the Inner Lid and the Taste Catcher.
Wipe the inner surface of the Outer Lid, the attaching
portion of the Taste Catcher, and the Packing.
When cooking recipes with a high meat content, the
fats and proteins of the meat can contaminate the
Inner Lid and internal surfaces of the Outer Lid.
(It may cause odours, rot or rusting the Inner Lid.)
O
When the Outer Lid is opened after cooking, water
droplets may drop from the Inner Lid onto the Clear
Frame.
Wipe these away with a well-wrung cloth.
