Cleaning and Maintenance
Removing odors
The following procedure should be performed each time after cooking, or if odors become an issue.
Note
●
Be careful with the rice cooker, inner pot, and cooking plate during cleaning as they are hot.
Otherwise, burns may be caused by hot surfaces.
Rice cooker
Do not place the cooking plate inside the inner pot.
(1) Fill the inner pot up to about 80% with
water, select the “Plain” menu, and
press the [Start] key.
(2) Press the [Keep Warm/Cancel] key when
the Keep Warm lamp lights up.
Note
●
If odors become an issue, use citric acid (approx.
20 g) added to the water for more effective
deodorizing.
It may be impossible to remove some odors
completely. In this case, contact the place of
purchase.
(3) Clean the inner pot, inner lid, and steam
cap using a mild dishwashing detergent,
and then rinse them sufficiently with
water.
(4) Allow the rice cooker and all parts to dry
in a well-ventilated location.
Cooking plate
Immerse the cooking plate in hot water and soak
them for approximately 1 hour.
Cleaning the heater plate

the following procedure if necessary.
(1) Add a small amount of
commercially available cream
cleaner to a nylon scrubbing
sponge and remove the stains
from the heater plate.
