Troubleshooting
· Rice is too dry/hard after cooking.
If your rice is dry or hard/chewy when the cooker
switches to Keep 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 thoroughly.
Close the lid and switch to White Rice. When the
cooker switches to Keep Warm mode, open 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 Keep Warm, use the serving spatula to stir
the rice. This will redistribute the bottom (moist) part
of the rice as well as release excess moisture. Close
the lid and allow to remain on Keep Warm mode for
10-30 minutes as needed, opening the lid and stirring
periodically to release excess moisture.
