Tips for cooking tasty rice
Measure
Wash
Adjust water
●
Level off included measuring cup without shaking.
If you shake the measuring cup, an excessive amount of rice will be
put in the cup. There may be errors in measurement if a standard
measuring cup for cooking (200 ml) is used.
The included measuring cup can be used for all types of rice.
One level cup is about 180 ml.
●
Gently and quickly wash the rice with water so as not to damage it.
(1)
First, add plenty of water, stir the rice in water roughly and drain the water
immediately. (Washing rice in hot water or slowly may cause rancidity.)
(2)
Stir, rinse with water 4 to 5 times, and finally rinse 2 times.
(3)
Adjust the water immediately. (Leaving the rice in a colander may cause
the rice to break or become soggy.)
●
For prewashed rice (rice that has been processed so as not to require rinsing to be
cooked), blend the rice with water.
Stir from the bottom. If the water becomes cloudy, rinse once or twice.
(Otherwise, it may cause poor cooking outcome or scorching.)
You can wash rice in the inner pot.
●
Flatten the rice and adjust water on a level surface.
Adjust the water to the water level scale according to the number of cups of rice
to
be cooked. (For water level scale for each course, see pages 14 and 15.)
●
Adjust based on preference.
( within 2 mm of the recommended water level scale)
Adjust the amount of water according to your preference and the condition of the rice. The condition of rice
varies depending on the rice brand, place of origin, and storage conditions.
For harder rice Put less water against the scale.
For softer rice Put more water against the scale.
For freshly-harvested rice Put less water against the scale.
For old rice, During the rainy
season and in summer
Put more water against the scale.
●
Use water that is suitable for cooking rice (tap water or water from a water purifier).
Alkaline ionized water
with a pH9 or higher
（
It causes a yellow discoloration
or mushy rice.
）
Water that is not appropriate for cooking
●
Use the freshest rice possible.
Buy rice that has been recently milled, in quantities that can be used within two weeks to a month and store it in
an airtight container in a cool, dark place.
●
Loosen rice immediately after it has been cooked.
(recommended within 10 min.)
While holding the inner pot with a dry cloth or mitten, cut the whole rice into four
equal
portions and turn them over one by one to loosen them.
This will prevent the rice clumping and being mushy.
Loosening the rice
[Good example]
[Bad example]
Mineral water with a
hardness of 100 or higher
（
It causes drying out
or hardening of rice
）
Water temperature of 30°C or less
Cold water is recommended
when cooking rice with
timer in hot weather.
（
It causes poor cooking results or bad
odor if the water temperature is high.
）
Use cold
water in
summer.

When you add ingredients and seasonings
Do not cook with <Quick
快煮
>.
Do not open lid to add ingredients while cooking.
Do not mix greens in from the start.
Boil the greens and add them after the rice is cooked.
(A clogged steam port may cause burns.)
●
Observe the max. cooking volume. (pages 14 and 15)
●
After washing the rice, soak the rice in water for about 30 minutes.
Sweet rice takes about 1 hour, brown rice about 2 hours.
(Adding seasonings makes it harder for the rice to absorb water.)
●
After soaking, drain the rice in a colander.
Do not let the rice sit after draining the water.
(If starchy material is deposited, it will burn easily.)
●
Add seasonings to congee only after it is cooked. (Otherwise, a poor cooking outcome will occur.)
●
Add seasonings, adjust the water level to the scale, stir well from the bottom and flatten the rice.
●
Then start the cooking immediately.
(If time elapses, the ingredients will settle at the bottom, causing poor
cooking results.)
●
Ingredients
…
Cut into small pieces and place in a ring formation on top of the rice without mixing them with
the rice. (Mixing with the rice may result in a poor cooking outcome.)
…
The amount of ingredients should be up to 70 g per cup of rice. (up to 30 g of dried beans per cup)
●
Do not use the Keep Warm mode or the timer.
(It may cause discoloration, spoiling of the rice or corrosion of
the inner pot or inner lid.)
●
Do not cook rice or keep it warm with vinegar added. (Vinegar may cause discoloration and damage.)
●
Clean the inner lid as soon as possible. (Otherwise, it may get rusty.)
If you use ingredients listed in commercially available recipes, or if you replace water with other liquid (e.g.
tomato juice, etc.), the cooked rice may not turn out tasty.

"Mixed rice with ingredients",
"Sweet rice with red beans" (page 20)
・
Since sweet rice alone is too soft, mix 2 cups of sweet
rice with 1 cup of ordinary standard rice.
・
When cooking sweet rice alone, use less water than
the water level scale for ”
糯米饭
Sweet rice”.
Partially milled rice
・
Wash well if loose bran is abundant
Congee
Do not use any course option
other than Congee.
(may cause boiling over or burns)
・
Use the <Congee
粥
> course.
・
Depending on the quality of the rice, water
temperature, and washing method, a small amount
of rice extract may come out of the steam vent.
・
This is not a course for making congee from cooked
rice.
・
Seasonings should be added after the rice is cooked.
Rice with mixed grains
Mixed grains alone cannot be cooked.
(this may cause boiling over and burns)
・
Follow the labeling on commercial grains for the amount
to be mixed with rice (if not indicated, 1 tablespoon of
grain for each cup of rice is recommended).
・
Adjust the water to the water level scale, and then
mix in the grain.
When mixing minor grains that float on water, soak
only the minor grains separately from the rice for 2 to 3
hours beforehand. Once the minor grains no longer
float, use them in cooking the rice.
(Floating grains may block the steam port, causing steam
leaks, or the deformation or damage of the cooker.)
•
If the grains do not sink into the water after soaking,
cook with less rice, i.e., up to 2 cups for the 1.0L type
and 4 cups for the 1.8L type.
White rice mixed with brown rice
(If cooking with brown rice and white rice mixed together.)
・
Soak brown rice for 2 hours and cook it in “White
白米
/
Sticky
软糯
” with water adjusted to the “
白米
White
rice” level.

First, cancel the Timer settings, reconfirm the currently selected cooking course, and redo the Timer operation.
Notice
●
If the rice is cooked slightly soft, reduce the amount of water as you like.
●
In case of cooking with the timer set, the rice on the inner bottom surface of the inner pot may become light brown
because the starch in the rice settles at the bottom of the pot. To avoid this, wash the rice well.
●
The actual time for completing the cooking may be delayed by about 10 minutes when the room temperature or
water temperature is low, or when the amount of water in the pot is increased.
●
If the "Timer" column of the table on pages 14 and 15 is marked with "×", do not use the
timer.
(Otherwise, it may deteriorate or spoil the rice or corrode the inner pot or inner lid.)
●
Avoid setting the timer for longer than 14 hours (8 hours in summer).
(Long use of Timer may cause the rice to ferment and develop an odor.) It is recommended that cold water or ice water be used during the summer.

Keep Warm mode
●
The elapsed time for Keep Warm mode is displayed in 1-hour units.
●
To keep the rice warm without spoiling its flavor, the cooker controls the
keep-warm temperature depending on the operating conditions.
●
When the inner pot is removed, the Keep Warm mode is automatically canceled.
●
Unplug the power supply after use and clean the unit as soon as it cools
down. (pages 10 and 11)
Reheating the rice being kept warm

1 short beep
1 short beep
When the cooking is completed, the system will sound a buzzer
and switch to the Keep Warm operation. You can restart the
cancelled Keep Warm mode or reheat the rice being kept warm.
Notice
●
If you are concerned about the rice being mushy, move it around and stir it occasionally so that no rice grains
remain on the sides of the inner pot.
●
Instead of keeping the rice warm for a long time or keeping a small volume of rice or mixed rice warm, it is
recommended that it be stored in the freezer.
●
The rice is more likely to turn yellow if it is not washed well, if there is not enough water when cooking, if the lid is
opened and closed too often, or if the amount of rice is too small.
Pay attention to the following to prevent odors, drying, and discoloration
●
Stay within the Keep Warm time limits
If the "Keep warm" column of the table on pages 14 and 15 is
marked with "
◎
", the rice can be kept warm for up to 24 hours;
if “
〇
”, up to 12 hours; if “×”, do not use Keep Warm mode.
・
After cooking rice with ingredients and seasonings, wash the inner pot and inner lid immediately without
using the Keep Warm mode.
(Otherwise, it may deteriorate or spoil the rice or corrode the inner pot or inner lid.)
・
Since mixed grain rice, brown rice, and partially milled rice are more prone to odor and discoloration than
white rice, it is recommended that they be consumed or kept frozen as soon as possible.
・
If used in an area with extreme cold or heat and humidity, consume the rice as soon as possible.
●
Do not leave a rice scoop in the inner pot.
●
Do not use the Keep Warm mode for cold rice or reheat it.
●
Do not leave rice in pot after cancelling Keep Warm mode.
●
Take good care of the cooker and wash the rice thoroughly.
If a bad odor occurs, clean the cooker by boiling. (page 11)
When the elapsed time for Keep Warm flashes during Keep Warm operation, stop using Keep Warm.
●
It flashes when the elapsed time is longer than the time it should be kept.
●
It will continually flash after 25 hours.

Cooking Notes
• If the sweet vinegar dressing is mixed
when the rice is still hot, the rice can
absorb the sweet vinegar dressing well.
• If you use a wooden sushi bowl, the
bowl will absorb the excess moisture so
the rice will not be mushy.
• If you use chilled seaweed stock instead
of water, the taste will be enhanced.

Troubleshooting
Please check the cause of the problem before requesting for a repair.
If you cannot find the cause, contact the shop from which the product was purchased.
Problem
Causes/what to check
(reference page)
●
Did you measure the rice and water accurately? (page 12)
●
The texture of rice varies depending on the type, brand, storage period, etc., of the rice.
Adjust to your preferences by testing out different amounts of water and other courses.
Rice
...is soft
...is mushy
...clumps
...is not tasty
• Reduce the amount of water, or use the <Hard
稍硬
> course.
• Loosen the rice immediately after it is cooked.
• For recently harvested rice, cook it with a little less water.
• Rice becomes softer when it is soaked before cooking or the timer is set for cooking.
• Washing rice too hard or leaving it in a sieve basket for a long time will cause rice
grains to crack and/or break, resulting in mushy rice.
• Did you use hot water or alkaline ionized water with a pH of 9 or higher? (page 12)
...is hard
...dries out
...is not tasty
• Increase the amount of water, or use the <Sticky
软糯
> course.
• Soak rice in water before cooking.
• Did you use hard mineral water ? (page 12)
...scorches
Rice becoming golden
brown is not a malfunction.
In the following cases, the rice may easily be scorched.
• When rice is not washed sufficiently.
• When rice is soaked for a long time; or When rice is cooked using the timer.
•
When pre-washed rice is cooked, wash rice 1 or 2 times before cooking to prevent scorching.
• When cooking whole rice, or adding seasonings to cook mixed rice.
•
When foreign objects are attached on the temperature sensor, lid temperature sensor, etc.
...does not cook well
...is not tasty
• Did you start cooking while the inside of the cooker or inner lid was hot ? Start
cooking after cooling it down.
• Rice cooked in the <Quick
快煮
> course may be slightly mushy or hard.
Try cooking rice using the <Delicious
美味模式
> course. (pages 14 and 15)
• Are any foreign objects stuck in the inner lid? Are any foreign objects stuck on the
lid temperature sensor, temperature sensor, inner lid packing, inner pot rim or air
inlet / outlet? (pages 10 and 11.)
• Has the inner pot or inner lid been deformed, or did you forget to attach the inner lid ?
• Was there a power failure while cooking ?
Mixed rice
does not cook well
• Did you mix ingredients into the rice ?
For other reasons, see "When you add ingredients and seasonings". (page 13)
Rice kept warm...
...smells bad
If the rice smells, be sure
to clean the cooker by
boiling before use.
(pages 10 and 11)
• Did you do any of the following ?
Using the Keep Warm mode for too long, using it for mixed rice, using it for cold
rice, leaving the rice scoop in the pot, or using the Keep Warm mode repeatedly
for long periods of time.
•
Rice with mixed grains or partially milled rice can be kept warm. However, It is
recommended to eat it as soon as possible or store it in the freezer because
keeping it warm could easily cause bad odors or discoloration.
• Are the inner lid and/or the main body dirty ?
Be sure to remove the inner lid, clean and dry it with a clean cloth every time you
cook. Also wipe off water droplets in the steam port every time. (pages 10 and 11)
• Did you wash the rice sufficiently ? Did you set the timer for too long ? (pages 12
and 18
)
• Is the rice still in the pot with the Keep Warm mode off ?
During the Keep Warm mode, did you remove the inner pot and then put it back;
did you press the OFF
（
关
）
key accidentally; or was the cooker forced off due to a
power failure for a long duration of time ?
...is not hot enough
• Reheat the rice before serving. (page 19)

Cooking / keeping warm
Steam leaks out of
the cooker
Check the reason after
cooking is finished.
• Are there any foreign objects on the inner lid packing, inner pot rim or frame ?
(
pages 10 and 11)
• Are there any foreign objects on the inner lid, clamp receiving parts or clamp
parts ?(
pages 10 and 11)
•
Has the inner lid packing been damaged, or has the inner lid or inner pot become deformed ?
• Is the inner lid properly fitted ? (page 10)
There are water droplets
near the steam vent
• Water droplets may form when the steam cools. This is not a problem.
There are water droplets on
the inner lid or inner pot.
• Water droplets may form on the inner lid or inner pot to prevent the rice from
drying out. This is not a problem.
When the outer lid is
opened, water drips
from the packing, etc.
• Water may drip onto the frame, etc., depending on the timing of opening the
outer lid, the room temperature, and so on. Wipe it off.
• When the lid is not opened completely, or opened slowly, condensation on the
inner lid may fall on the inner pot (rice) instead of the outer frame.
• If the power or Keep Warm setting is turned off while rice is in the pot, a large
amount of condensation will accumulate on the lid.
•
Are there any foreign objects on the temperature sensors or the outer surface of the inner pot ?
The cooker...
...boils over
...spatters
• Was the amount of rice too small ? Was the water too much ? Did you wash the
rice sufficiently ?
• Was a correct course used when cooking congee? (pages 14 and 15)
•
Are foreign objects attached to the temperature sensor or the lid temperature sensor ?
•
Have you attached the inner lid ?
• Are any foreign objects stuck in the inner lid ? (page 10)
A thin film is formed
on the inner pot.
• Thin films like wafer paper are dried starch in the rice. This is not a problem.
The center of the rice
has hollowed out.
• This is caused by the inner pot heating itself in the unique IH cooking system.
This is not a problem. Loosen all of the rice.

Troubleshooting (continued)
Before requesting for repair,
please check the following.
Problem
Causes/what to check
(reference page)
Cooking
Cooking takes a
longer time.
The displayed time
does not change.
• The preset clock will start changing when the temperature for cooking is reached.
The actual time period required to finish cooking will be longer as it includes the
time during which the temperature increases to the target temperature.
The cooked food does
not turn out tasty.
• Doneness varies depending on the kinds of ingredients and how they have been
measured. Check the recipe or change the setting time.
• In the following cases, the cooked food may not turn out tasty.
The outer lid is not fully closed; steam is leaking (page 29); foreign objects are attached
to the temperature sensor or the lid temperature sensor; the inner pot is deformed;
cooked rice was left in the pot; or there was a power failure while cooking (page 31).
The timer cannot be set.
• The timer cannot be set for < 蒸 Steam>,< 蛋糕 Cake> and < 炖汤 Soup> courses.
Display / keys
Key operation is not
possible.
• Is the power plug connected ? Is the inner pot in place ?
• Is an error message, e.g. "C
〇〇
", "F
〇〇
", etc. being displayed ? (page 31)
The lamps went off.
Cooking has stopped
hallway.
• If you remove the inner pot during use, power will be cut off.
• If you press the OFF
（
关
）
key accidentally, or there is a long-time power failure,
the power will be cut off.
Display of remaining
time is different from
the actual cooking time.
• The actual cooking time may differ from the displayed time. This is not a
malfunction. See "Time until cooking completion" on page 17 for details.
Want to set the current time.
• See "Setting the clock to the current time" on page 7.
The elapsed time
displayed in the Keep
Warm mode is flashing.
• This is to notify you that rice is being kept in the Keep Warm mode for too long.
Stop the Keep Warm mode. (page 19)
Buzzer sounds and (C
or F ) is displayed.
• See "Error display" on page 31.
The display disappears.
The time display 0:00 is
flashing.
• The lithium battery embedded in the main body has run out. (page 31)
The display is fogged.
• Wipe off all moisture from the outer surface of the inner pot and the inner lid.
• The display may become fogged during cooking and for a while after entering the
Keep Warm mode due to the difference in temperature between the inside of the
cooker and the surrounding environment, but this will disappear with use.
Other problems
The cooker makes
noises while in use.
Turning off or
changing the sound
• See "Sounds made during usage" on page 9.
•
It is not possible to turn off or change volume of buzzer sounds and operating sounds.
There is a smell of
plastic, etc.
• The cooker may smell at first, but the smell will decrease with use.If you are worried
about the smell, ventilate the room or clean the cooker by boiling. (page 11)
Plastic parts have line
marks or wavy portions.
• These come from plastic molding and they are not abnormal. You can use the
cooker to cook rice and keep it warm without any problems.
There is a gap between the
outer lid and the main body.
• There is the gap between the outer lid and the main body but it is sealed with the
inner lid packing.
The coating on the outer
surface of the inner pot
is scratched or dirty.
• The coated outer surface of the inner pot may become scratched or dirty with
use. You can use the cooker to cook rice and keep it warm without any problems.
Sparks come out of
the power plug.
• Small sparks are sometimes generated when plugging or unplugging the power
plug. This is inherent to the IH (induction heating) method and is not a malfunction.
The circuit breaker is
tripped during
cooking.
• If you use the cooker together with other electrical appliances at the same time,
electricity use may exceed the rating and trip the breaker. Do not share the
electrical outlet used for the cooker with other appliances.
