care & cleaning
This appliance should be cleaned after every use.
1
Unplug the rice cooker when not in use and before cleaning.
Never immerse HEATING UNIT, cord or plug in water or any
other liquids. Allow the RICE COOKER to cool completely
before cleaning.
NOTE:
Use the RICE LADLE or wooden utensil to stir and
remove food from the INNER POT. DO NOT use metal utensils.
2
To clean the HEATING UNIT, lightly wipe the exterior with a
damp cloth or sponge. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
3
The INNER POT is coated with a non-stick coating to make
clean up easier. To clean, remove the INNER POT from the rice
cooker and fill with hot water from the tap. Let it sit for a
while and then wash with hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly
and dry.
4
The INNER POT, LID, RICE LADLE and MEASURING CUP are
dishwasher safe.
5
Make sure that the grains of rice do not stick to the HEATING
PLATE in the bottom of the HEATING BASE. If this occurs,
remove immediately. If grains of rice are stuck onto the
heating plate, a non-abrasive pad can be used to remove it.
Polish the area for good contact between the HEATING
PLATE, and the bottom of the INNER POT.
NOTE:
Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads or steel
wool to clean the RICE COOKER.
6
Do not use bleach, vinegar or other harsh chemicals to clean
the RICE COOKER.

* Altitude affects the temperature at which water boils and thus the
cooking time. It’s especially true at high altitudes where longer cooking
times are necessary. We have outlined a general guide to follow. Test for
desired consistency when cooking times indicated have been reached.
As you cook with this appliance, adapt times and measurements to your
own personal tastes.
