Use the measuring cup provided with the rice cooker. Generally, use one cup of rice to one cup of water for white rice. Adjust the water amount for different types of rice or desired texture.
Ensure that you are using the correct rice-to-water ratio. Check that the cooker is properly plugged in and the lid is closed securely. If the problem persists, try adding slightly more water.
Yes, you can cook other grains like quinoa or barley. Adjust the water ratios accordingly and refer to the grain's package instructions for specific guidance.
Allow the cooker to cool, then remove the inner pot and wash it with warm soapy water. Wipe the exterior and heating plate with a damp cloth. Ensure all parts are dry before reassembly.
Check that the power cord is securely connected and the outlet is functioning. Inspect for any blown fuses or tripped circuit breakers. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking to remove excess starch. You can also lightly coat the bottom of the pot with cooking oil before adding rice and water.
The 'Keep Warm' setting is designed to keep rice warm after cooking. However, for food safety and quality, it's best not to leave rice on this setting for more than a few hours.
Unusual noises may be due to trapped condensation or uneven placement. Ensure the cooker is on a flat, stable surface and that the lid is closed properly.
It is not recommended to open the lid during the cooking process, as it can affect cooking time and texture. Open the lid only when necessary, such as to stir or check the water level.
Regularly clean the cooker and its components after each use. Inspect the power cord and plug for any signs of wear. Store the cooker in a dry place to prevent rust or damage.
