User Maintenance Instructions
This appliance contains no user serviceable parts. Do not try to repair
it yourself. Any servicing requiring disassembly other than cleaning
must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.
Always remember to unplug the unit from the wall outlet when not in
use and before cleaning.
◆ Be careful not to dent the Inner Pot, especially the bottom of it.
To work properly and produce the best cooking results, the
Inner Pot must fit snugly on top of the thermostat.
◆ DO NOT let loose grains of rice or other food particles fall into
the bottom of the Main Housing because they might prevent the
thermostat from fitting tightly against the bottom of the Inner
Pot and cause inadequate cooking.
◆ Use the plastic Rice Paddle or a wooden spoon to stir and
remove food from the Inner Pot. NEVER use any metal utensils.
◆ Never use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads because they can
damage the finish of both the Inner Pot and Main Housing.
Cleaning Instructions
NOTE: It is normal to have a brown “rice crust” coating the bottom
layer of the Inner Pot when the rice has finished cooking and steaming.
◆ This appliance should be cleaned after every use. Unplug the unit
from the wall outlet. NEVER immerse Main Housing or Power
Cord in water. Allow the unit to cool before cleaning.
◆ Let the Rice Cooker cool. Fill Inner Pot with warm water and allow
to sit for a while. Wash in warm, soapy water with a sponge and dry
thoroughly with a cloth.
◆ The Wire Cooking Rack, Glass Lid, Rice Measuring Cup and Rice
Paddle may also be washed in warm, soapy water.
