This product is for cooking and keeping rice warm only. Do not use for other than
intended purposes. Always follow these Operating Instructions.
Cooking the following types of foods may clog the steam exhaust route, cause steam to come out
from the gap between the Outer Lid and the Main Body, or the Outer Lid to open suddenly. Please do
not cook the following:
• Foods that expand after cooking such as processed seafood products and beans.
(For sweet rice cooked with adzuki beans, boil the adzuki beans separately before adding them to the rice.)
• Foods that may bubble over such as those using baking soda.
•Thick foods such as curry and stews.
• Foods with large amounts of oil.
• Foods that bubble up such as jams.
• Foods packaged in plastic bags.
• Dishes that use paper towels or other lids to cover the food or steaming dishes.
• Foods with green vegetables (such as rice porridge with seven herbs); the green vegetables should be
cooked separately and added after the rice completes cooking.
Never open the Outer Lid or move the Rice Cooker when pressure is applied during cooking.

Hook Holes of
the Main Body-
Always check that rice or other matter is not stuck around the Lid Hooks, the Hook
Holes of the Main Body, the gap between the Main Body and the Outer Lid, the Inner
Lid Gasket, the Pressure Control Valve, the
Safety Valve, the Inner Lid Filter, or around
the Steam Vent before cooking. Close the
Outer Lid securely until it clicks shut.
• Rice or other matter stuck on these areas may
prevent the Outer Lid from closing completely. It may
also cause steam to come out from the gap between
the Outer Lid and the Main Body, or the Outer Lid
may open suddenly and rice or other ingredients
may boil over. Additionally, for safety purposes,
it may prevent the Rice Cooker from cooking.
•The Outer Lid may not open if rice or other matter is stuck.
When opening the Outer Lid during cooking,
make sure that the PRESSURE indicator has
disappeared from the Control Panel.
