The Rice Cooker will make adjustments to the remaining time
until cooking completion when it reaches the steaming process.
The time until cooking completion may increase or decrease
suddenly during this process.
When the melody or beep to indicate cooking completion sounds, stir and
loosen the rice immediately to give the rice a deliciously fluffy texture.
When cooking completes, the Rice Cooker will automatically switch to Keep Warm mode.

When cooking more than one pot of rice consecutively,
or cooking right after cancelling the Keep Warm mode,
allow the Rice Cooker to cool for 30 minutes or longer.
If the Main Body and the Outer Lid are hot, the rice may not cook well.
To cool the Main Body and Outer Lid quickly, please try the following:
•
Fill the Inner Cooking Pan with cold water and place it in the Main Body.
•
Open the Outer Lid, remove the Inner Lid Set and allow the Radiator Plate to cool.
When adding water to the CONGEE Water Level,
do not cook using Menu settings other than
CONGEE. Using any other Menu setting may
cause contents to boil over.
●
The CONGEE menu setting selection will not
be saved. When cooking congee, please
select it each time.

ESTIMATED COOKING TIME
When it switches to Keep Warm mode, immediately stir
and loosen the rice.
By stirring and loosening the rice and removing excess
moisture, you prevent the rice from hardening, becoming
sticky, or becoming burnt.
●
Be careful not to burn yourself when stirring and loosening rice.
Turns on
●
The Inner Cooking Pan may spin when loosening the rice. Holding the Inner Cooking Pan with oven-mitts or a
soft cloth will keep it from spinning while reducing damages to the outside bottom of the pan.
●
Depending on cooking conditions, the bottom portion of the rice may become slightly browned.
●
Depending on the heat convection while cooking, the surface of the finished rice may look uneven.
Be careful that the contents do not boil over.
