When rice has odor.
P.18
ATTENTION
Did you keep the rice warm for more than 24 hours?
Did you close the lid firmly?
Did you keep the rice warm with the rice scoop inside?
Did you add cold rice to the rice that is being kept warm?
Did you rinse the rice sufficiently?
If the rice bran remains, the rice will absorb the odor.
Did you make a reservation of more than 12 hours in summer?
Soaking the rice in water for a long time may cause the water to deteriorate,
resulting in odor.
Did you cook the rice after cooking mixed rice or the like?
If you use seasonings, the odor remains. Wash the inner pot, heat sink, and
cartridge carefully.
Cooked rice may appear yellow depending on the type of rice and water.
If you cook the rice in alkaline water with a pH value of 9 or more, or mineral
water with a high degree of hardness, the cooked rice appears yellow.
Are the heat sink, cartridge, bush, and other parts free from dirt, or did you forget to
attach them?
Are foreign objects such as rice grains stuck to the area between the edge of the inner
pot and the lid packing?
Remove them.
