Product Overview

The rice cooker consists of the main body, a removable inner pot, a lid with a steam vent, a control panel, and a water collection tray. Included accessories are a rice paddle, measuring cup, steaming tray, and power cord.

Safety Precautions

• Use a power outlet compatible with the appliance's power rating.
• Do not plug in other high-power devices into the same outlet simultaneously.
• Never operate the cooker without the inner pot inside.
• Keep the bottom of the inner pot and the heating plate clean and dry.
• Do not use the cooker for purposes other than those specified in the manual.
• Do not immerse the main body in water.
• Avoid using hard or abrasive tools (like steel wool) to clean the inner pot to prevent damaging the non-stick coating.
• Ensure the steam vent is clean and unobstructed.

Operating Instructions

1. Open the lid and add rice and water to the inner pot according to your recipe.
2. Ensure the exterior of the inner pot is dry and clean before placing it into the main body. Rotate the pot slightly to ensure good contact with the heating plate.
3. Close the lid securely and connect the power cord.
4. Press the cook button to start the process.
5. Once cooking is complete, the unit will automatically switch to the Keep Warm mode.
6. After cooking, it is recommended to let the rice sit for about 10 minutes before opening the lid for better results.

8. Empty and clean the water collection tray after each use.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Always unplug the appliance and allow it to cool down completely before cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the exterior. The inner pot should be washed with a soft sponge and mild detergent. Do not use metal scouring pads. Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling.
