Safety instructions for the appliance to be used for many years
●
Remove any cooked or grains of rice adhering to
the rice cooker and inner pot.
Failure to do so may cause steam to leak
or contents to boil over. This may result in
malfunction or improperly cooked rice.
●
Do not cover the rice cooker
with a cloth or other object
during cooking.
Doing so may cause the rice
cooker or the lid to become
deformed or discolored.
●
Do not reheat (keep warm) cooled rice.
Doing so may cause unpleasant odors.
●
The holes in the rice cooker are designed to
maintain its functions and performance. In
extremely rare cases, insects may enter these
holes and cause malfunction. To prevent this, a
commercially available insect prevention sheet, etc.,
is recommended. If a malfunction does occur due
to this problem, it will not be covered by warranty. In
this case, contact the place of purchase.
● The fluorocarbon resin coating on the inner pot may
wear and peel with extended use. It is harmless to
humans and does not interfere with actual cooking
or the heat insulating capability of the rice cooker. If
deformation or corrosion is found on the inner pot,
a new inner pot may be purchased. In this case,
contact the place of purchase.
Do not move the rice cooker while it
is cooking.
