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. Contact the place of
purchase.
● The inner pot's fluorocarbon resin coating may
wear and peel with extended use. This material is
harmless to humans and this situation presents no
hindrance to actual cooking or to the rice cooker’s
heat insulating capability.
In the case you would like to purchase a new
inner pot, you can do so by contacting the place of
purchase.
●
Strictly observe the following instructions
to keep the fluorocarbon resin coating from
scratching or peeling.
• Do not place the inner pot directly over gas,
electric, or IH stove top. Do not place in the

the fluorocarbon resin coating or deform
the bottom side of the inner pot, resulting in
