"Specifications" on p.49). Otherwise the rice may
not cook properly.

Wash the rice. (This can be
done using the inner pot.)
For rinse-free rice, see p.14.

menu, but can be fine-adjusted to your personal
preference. (See the guidelines on p.14.)

closing, allow steam to leak out during cooking, or
enable the lid to open and the contents to spray
out, resulting in burns or other injury.
