Troubleshooting

· Rice is too dry/hard after cooking.
If your rice is dry or hard/chewy when the cooker
switches to Warm, additional water and cooking time
will soften the rice. Depending on how dry your rice
is, add ½ to 1 cup of water and stir through. Place on
the lid and switch to Cook. When cooker switches to
Warm mode, remove the lid and stir the rice to check
the consistency. Repeat as necessary until rice is soft
and moist.
· Rice is too moist/soggy after cooking.
If your rice is still too moist or soggy when the cooker
switches to Warm, use the serving spatula to stir the
rice. This will redistribute the bottom (moistest) part
of the rice as well as release excess moisture. Place
on the lid and allow to remain on Warm mode for 10-
30 minutes as needed, removing the lid and stirring
periodically to release excess moisture.
