Parts to wash when dirty Detaching and installing the inner lid
Caution
Do not splash water on the main unit, immerse the
main unit in water or put water inside the main unit.
Do not use if dust or other materials are clogging
the intake and exhaust vents on the bottom of the
main unit.
This causes the temperature inside the main unit to
rise, leading to damage or a fire.
Caution
Do not pull on the lid gasket or the inner lid gasket.
If they come off, they cannot be put back on. If the
lid gasket or inner lid gasket comes off, consult the
store where you purchased your rice cooker.
