Possible cause
You have not rinsed the rice
properly.
You added too much water to
the rice.
Inner pot is not well cleaned and
leftover from previous cooking
contaminates the rice.
You did not turn the knob.
You turn the knob and allow it to
bounce back.
This is normal.
There has been a power failure during
cooking or in the keep-warm mode
that lasted longer than 2 hours.
Too much water when making
soup/congee (exceed water level
markings).
Too much rice or too much
ingredients.
Solution
Rinse the rice until the water
runs clear.
Make sure that you add water to the
level indicated on the scale inside
the inner pot that corresponds to
the number of cups of rice used.
Make sure the water does not
exceed the next level on the scale,
as this may cause the appliance to
overÁ ow during cooking.
Clean the inner pot with some
washing detergent and warm water.
After cooking, make sure the
steam vent cap, inner lid and inner
pot is cleaned thoroughly.
Turn the knob slowly to the left or
to the right to the desired function
as shown by the LED light.
Keep turning the knob to the right for
a longer period of time, as it allows
the time to move faster, until the time
has reaches closed to the desired
time. Then turn the knob slowly to
reach the exact time needed.
This shows that the rice cooker is
switched to keep-warm mode.
When the power supply resumes,
press the Stop/Cancel button to
reset the appliance.
Add water according to the
indication on water level markings.
Do not add too much rice when
making congee, with maximum
of 1.5 cup of rice, then add water

1.5 cup congee.
