TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM SOLUTION

Rice is too dry/hard after cooking

If your rice is dry or hard 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 thoroughly. Close the lid and select the White Rice function once more. When the cooker switches to 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 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 the cooker to remain on Warm mode for 10-30 minutes as needed, opening the lid and stirring periodically to release.
