Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your lunch box, refer to the following common solutions:
- Unit Not Heating: Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the lunch box and a functional power outlet. Check if the power indicator light is on.
- Food Not Heating Evenly: Make sure the steam vent on the lid is open during the heating process. This allows steam to circulate and heat food more effectively.
- Leaking: Verify that the leakproof lid is correctly positioned and all four clasps are securely fastened. Inspect the silicone sealing ring for any damage or misalignment.
- Slow Heating: Ensure the correct power cord is used for the power source (e.g., 110V/220V cord for wall outlets). Heating times can vary based on food type and initial temperature.
