CAUTION *
Be sure that the rice cooker is always kept clean, and esp)ecially that there is no
foreign matter between the pan and the heating plate, or the pan is not dented or
deformed. In such cases, the switch may turn off too soon, so the rice will not be
properly cooked, or the heating plate may be deformed causing damage to the
cooker. Always be sure to use the cooker properly for long, trouble-free service.
' Handling of the pan
If you drop the pan accidentally, if you hit if on a hard surface, or if you place
it on another heat source (ex. gas stove), it may become dented or deformed.
In such cases, the pan may not maintain a close contact with the heating
plate and you will not be able to serve delicious rice.
1. Foreign matter is between the pan and the heating plate.
2. The pan is not sitting properly in the cooker and it does not contact the
heating plate adequately.
* For example:
(A) The pan may be caught on the edge of the body.
(B) The bottom of the pan may be sitting on the ledge above the heating plate.
3. Never soak the body in wafer. When you wash the pan, be sure to remove it
from the body.
Never use abrasive powder or steel wool when washing the pan or the lid.
4. When the pan is sitting properly or the heating plate, heat flows directly to the
pan and gives superior performance. Place the pan directly on the heating
plate and turn it slightly to the right and left to make sure it is in the proper position.
5. Non-stick coated pan may discolor with age. This is normal.
Do not use metal utensils with Non-stick coated pan.
