Important Safeguards
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:
Read all instructions.
⚠️ WARNING:
- DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
- Protect against electrical shock: do not immerse cord, plugs, or specific parts in water or other liquid.
- ❗ CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, cook only in removable container.
- DO NOT touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
- Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
- DO NOT use outdoors, HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
- Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
- DO NOT use appliance for other than intended use.
- Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
- The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
- DO NOT let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
- DO NOT place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
- Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to "off", then remove plug from wall outlet.
- Intended for countertop use only.
⚠️ WARNING: Spilled food can cause serious burns. Keep appliance and cord away from children. Never drape cord over edge of counter, never use outlet below counter, and never use with an extension cord.
- A short power-supply cord is used to reduce the risk resulting from it being grabbed by children, becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.
- DO NOT use the handle to move the cooker when any food is in it.
- This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
- A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
- Extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
- If an extension cord is used:
- The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
- The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter or table top where it could be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
- If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
- Troubleshooting: Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

Troubleshooting
Operation of your appliance can lead to errors and malfunctions. The following tables contain possible causes and notes for resolving an error message or malfunction. It is recommended to read the tables carefully below in order to save your time and money that may cost for calling to the service center.
Problem | TIPS |
---|---|
Rice is too dry/hard after cooking | If your rice is dry or hard/chewy when the rice cooker switches to Keep-Warm, additional water and cooking time will soften the rice. Depending on how dry the rice is, add 1/2 to 1 cup of water and stir through. Close the lid and press the White Rice button. When rice cooker switches to Keep-Warm, 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 the rice is still too moist or soggy when the rice cooker switches to Keep-Warm, use the serving spatula to stir the rice. This will redistribute the bottom (moistest) part of the rice as well as release excess moisture. Close the lid and allow to remain on Keep-Warm for 10-30 minutes as needed, opening the lid and stirring periodically to release excess moisture. |
The bottom layer of rice is browned / caramelized | The bottom layer of cooked rice may become slightly browned and/or caramelized during cooking. To reduce browning, rice should be rinsed before cooking to remove any excess starch. Stirring rice once it switches to Keep-Warm will also help to reduce browning/caramelizing. |
Fault | Possible Reasons | Coping Methods |
---|---|---|
E1 | Bottom sensor open circuit | If it still reports a fault after unplugging the power and plugging again, please send it to the local after-sales service center. |
E2 | Bottom sensor short circuit | If it still reports a fault after unplugging the power and plugging again, please send it to the local after-sales service center. |
