Problem
●Develops an odor
●Turns yellow
●Rice becomes
dry.

the rice is low.
Keeping rice warm for a long period of time or repeatedly reheating it
may cause it to develop an odor or turn yellow. This is not a malfunction.

Keeping rice warm

●Do not leave the rice scoop in the rice cooker when using Keep Warm. In addition, do
not use Keep Warm for rice that has become cold.
Washing the rice
●In the case of white rice, wash it until the water runs clear.
●In the case of rinse-free rice, rinse and stir well to let it blend in water if the water
becomes cloudy.
Stirring and loosening the rice
●Loosen the rice as soon as the cooking process is finished. Loosen the rice
occasionally during Keep Warming. (This prevents the excess steam from making the
rice sticky or developing an odor.)
Dirt on parts
●Clean off the steam cap, plate, and inner lid.
Keeping the rice warm for a long period of time or repeatedly reheating it
could cause it to dry out. This is not a malfunction.
Amount of rice to keep warm
●When keeping a small amount of rice warm, place it at the center of the inner pot.
Dirt on parts
●Clean the bottom and rim of the inner pot, temperature sensor, and the lid packing.
Attaching parts
●Be sure to attach the steam cap, plate, and inner lid before keeping rice warm.
Condensation forms on the inside of the lid and on the inner pot in order to prevent the
rice from drying out. In addition, the inner pot temperature is automatically changed
during Keep Warm, thus condensation may form when the temperature is reduced.
This is not a malfunction.
Stirring and loosening the rice
●Loosen the rice as soon as the cooking process is finished. Loosen the rice
occasionally during Keep Warming. (This prevents the excess steam from making the
rice sticky or developing an odor.)
