Product Description
The rice cooker consists of a main body, a removable inner lid with a silicone seal, an inner pot, and a control panel. The control panel allows you to select various cooking programs, adjust cooking time, and set a delayed start.

Basic Use

Cooking Programs
The device features several preset programs, including White Rice, Brown Rice, Curry, Steam, Soup, Yogurt, Cake, Porridge, and Reheat. Cooking times can be adjusted for most programs using the H and M buttons.
Steaming
Use the provided steamer for steaming. Pour water into the inner pot so the level is approximately 1 cm from the bottom of the steamer. Place the steamer into the pot, add food, and select the STEAM program.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Always disconnect the power plug and allow the device to cool completely before cleaning. Wash the inner pot, steamer, measuring cup, and spoon in warm water with a little dishwashing detergent. The inner lid and silicone seal should also be washed in warm water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal tools that could scratch the non-stick surface.
Troubleshooting
If the display does not light up, check the power cord connection. If the rice is not cooked properly, ensure it was evenly distributed in the pot. For error messages E1-E4, contact an authorized service center as these indicate sensor issues.
