3. Usage Guidelines

The aqinsfai 2L Rice Cooker Inner Pot is designed for cooking rice and other compatible dishes in your Philips rice cooker. Follow your rice cooker's specific operating instructions for cooking times and settings.

• Non-Stick Surface: The inner pot features a high-quality non-stick coating. To preserve this coating, use only plastic, silicone, or wooden utensils when stirring or serving food. Avoid metal utensils that can scratch the surface.
