FAQs

What is the maximum capacity of the rice cooker?

The inner pot has a capacity of 1.8 liters, which can cook up to 10 cups of uncooked rice, yielding a larger volume of cooked rice.

Can I cook other grains besides white and brown rice?

Yes, while the presets are optimized for white and brown rice, you can experiment with other grains like quinoa or couscous. Adjust water ratios and cooking times as needed, or use the standard rice setting.

How long does the keep-warm function last?

The automatic keep-warm function can maintain the temperature of the cooked rice for up to 12 hours.

Is the inner pot safe for stovetop use?

No, the inner pot is designed for use only within the rice cooker base. It is not suitable for stovetop cooking.

Can I steam different types of food?

Yes, the steaming function is versatile and can be used for vegetables, fish, dumplings, and other small portions of food. Ensure the food fits within the steaming tray.

Are all parts dishwasher safe?

The glass lid and the steaming tray are typically dishwasher safe. The inner pot may be suitable for dishwashers, but hand washing is often recommended to preserve the non-stick coating. Always refer to your product manual for specific care instructions.

What accessories are included with the rice cooker?

The rice cooker comes with a measuring cup, a serving spoon, and a vegetable steaming tray.

Troubleshooting

Rice is mushy or overcooked

Ensure the correct rice-to-water ratio is used for the type of rice. Reduce the amount of water slightly for the next use.

Rice is undercooked or hard

Verify the correct rice-to-water ratio. Ensure the lid is sealed properly during the cooking cycle.

Appliance does not turn on

Check that the power cord is securely plugged into both the cooker and a working electrical outlet. Ensure the inner pot is correctly seated in the base.

Food is sticking to the inner pot

Ensure a small amount of oil or butter is used if sautéing. For regular rice cooking, the non-stick coating should prevent significant sticking; clean gently if residue remains.

Steaming tray does not fit correctly

Ensure the correct tray is being used and that it is seated properly on the rim of the inner pot or on top of cooked rice, as per the instruction manual.
