KEEPING RICE WARM 

(cont.)

HOW TO KEEP RICE WARM AGAIN

The REGULAR KEEP WARM light turns on, and 

the time elapsed display returns to “0 h”.

If you want to know the current time during the Keep 

Warm mode, press the       or       button and the 

Display will switch. 

Press the       or       button again to return to the 

display for the Keep Warm time elapsed.

If you do not return the display to the Keep Warm 

time elapsed, the next time you cook rice, the Keep 

Warm time elapsed will not be displayed. If the 

Keep Warm time elapsed display is blinking, you 

cannot switch.

 

Foul odors or the growth of bacteria may occur 

depending on how well the unit is cleaned, the room 

temperature based on the season or usage environment, 

frequent opening and closing of the Outer Lid, the type 

of rice used, or the way the rice was cleaned. If you are 

concerned about odors, cleaning the Rice Cooker 

according to “THE INTERIOR” on 

pg. 20

 and then using 

REGULAR KEEP WARM should be effective. It can be 

even more effective to increase the warming 

temperature, as described on 

pg. 25

, “IF THE 

FOLLOWING OCCUR”.

 

When keeping rice in the Inner Cooking Pan for later consumption, you must use the Keep 

Warm mode.

Press the                button.

IMPORTANT

 When you want to keep rice warm after canceling the Keep Warm mode.

When you are concerned about the odor

NOTE

 

If the temperature of the rice and the Inner Cooking Pan 

are low, do not keep warm again. Trying to keep contents 

warm again when the rice and Inner Cooking Pan 

temperatures are low will cause “0 (h)” to blink.

REHEATING RICE

Be sure to loosen the rice to prevent scorching or the rice from becoming hard.

To reheat a small amount of rice, add 1 tablespoon of water for each bowl of 

rice (approx. 160 g), mix well, and gather the rice toward the center of the Inner 

Cooking Pan. Doing so will minimize dryness.

Be careful not to burn yourself when stirring and loosening rice.

The Inner Cooking Pan may spin when loosening the rice. Holding the Inner 

Cooking Pan (which is very hot immediately after reheating) with an oven-mitt 

or a soft cloth will keep it from spinning while reducing damage to the outside 

bottom of the pan.

Loosen and level the surface of the 

rice that is being kept warm.

Loosen and level the surface of the rice, as the rice at the bottom may be harder. 

Be careful not to burn yourself when stirring and loosening rice.

The Inner Cooking Pan may spin when loosening the rice. Holding the Inner Cooking Pan (which is very hot 

immediately after reheating) with an oven-mitt or a soft cloth will keep it from spinning while reducing damage to 

the outside bottom of the pan.

Loosen the rice.

Press the            button.

Press
the           button.

off, and the current time display 

returns.

Make sure that the KEEP WARM light is on, and 

Standard times required for 

reheating

Approx. 7 min. – 9 min.

You can use this function during Regular Keep 

Warm mode or Extended Keep Warm mode.

This Reheat function is for reheating the rice during Keep Warm 

mode to make the rice hotter. Particularly, when the rice is kept 

warm at a lower temperature by the Extended Keep Warm mode, the 

Reheat function will reheat the rice to the best serving temperature.

You can reheat the rice only when the KEEP WARM light is on.

Do not use the Reheat function to reheat food other than white rice, as reheating other types of rice may cause scorching or 

discoloring.

Do not repeat the Reheat function as doing so may cause scorching or dryness.

Do not use the Reheat function if the amount of rice left over is above water level 3 (for 1.0 L model) or 6 (for 1.8 L model) for 

WHITE as the rice may not be warmed adequately.

Do not use the Reheat function if the rice is cold or the temperature of the Inner Cooking Pan is too low as doing so may 

cause scorching, foul odors or the rice may become hard.

The melody (beep) sounds 

and Reheating is finished.

The START/REHEAT light 

turns off, the KEEP WARM 

light turns on, and the Rice 

Cooker switches to Regular 

Keep Warm mode.

Press
the           button.
