HOW to Clean

Always unplug the rice cooker and make sure it has completely cooled before cleaning.

1. Remove the inner cooking pot. Wash it in warm, soapy water using a sponge or dishcloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or products that are not considered safe to use on non-stick coatings. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

2. Detach the inner lid from the center shaft by gently tugging it outward. Soak briefly and wash. To replace the inner lid to the outer lid, press the inner lid over the shaft. After installing the inner lid, the smaller side of the seal should face you with outer lid open. If the inner lid is not inserted properly, the outer lid will not close.

3. Gently remove the water collector (fitted onto the side of the rice cooker) by pulling downward. Discard the water after each use. Clean and replace the collector.

4. Clean other surfaces with a damp cloth.

5. Make sure the heating plate is clean and free of food or other articles that could interfere with the proper functioning of the rice cooker. Residue could be removed by gently scrubbing the heating plate with a piece of steel wool, then wipe and dry the heating plate to ensure good contact with the cooking pan.

Do not immerse the rice cooker, cord or plug in water at any time.

NOTE:

• If the cooking pot is still wet on the outside, a cracking sound may occur as the cooker heats up and it might damage the cooker.

• Keep the cooking pot extremely clean especially if salt or salty ingredients have been used. Salt is very corrosive and will damage the non-stick lining.

• The non-stick coating will discolor after a period of use. This is normal and will not affect your health or the use of the cooker.
