cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning, always remove the plug from the socket and let the rice cooker cool down.
1. Remove the inner pan and wash it with hot water and mild washing-up liquid. Use a soft sponge or cloth.
2. Rinse off the inner pan and dry it properly.
3. Do the same with the steaming basket and the other accessories.
4. Once you remove the steam valve from the lid, the lid can be carefully removed. Once you have done so, clean it thoroughly with
a sponge or cloth.
5. Ensure that all of the accessories are properly dry before putting them back into the rice cooker.
6. Clean the outside of the rice cooker with a damp cloth.
• Never use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents! This can damage the inner pan's non-stick layer.
• The device itself can not be placed in a dishwasher. However, a dishwasher can be used to clean the inner pan and the
accessories.
• It is important that the outside of the inner pan is completely clean and dry before it is placed in the rice cooker. The
heating element can be damaged if water, food remnants or other dirt come into contact with it.

tips

Different types of rice produce different results. Below you can find a number of tips to help you achieve the desired consistency.
Problem
The rice is too dry/hard after cooking.
The rice is too wet/sticky after cooking.
Solution
If the rice is too dry or hard/tough when the rice cooker
switches to heat mode, then you can soften up the rice by
adding more water and extending the cooking time. Depending
on how dry the rice is, add between half a measuring cup to a
full measuring cup of water and stir.
Close the lid and push the on/off switch downwards.
When the rice cooker switches to heat mode, open the lid and
check the consistency.
If necessary, repeat the process of adding water and cooking
until the rice is ready.
If the rice is still too wet/sticky when the rice cooker switches
to heat mode, stir the rice well with the spoon provided. This
will more evenly distribute the wet rice at the bottom and
release moisture.
Close the lid and leave the rice on heat mode for another 10-
30 minutes. Stir the rice regularly to release all of the excess
moisture.
