TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Some kernels of rice do
not seem fully cooked.
The rice was not allowed
to finish cooking.
Allow rice to rest for 15
minutes after cooking
before serving.
Removable pan is not as
clean as I would like.
Starch builds up on
sides and bottom of
removable pan.
Fill pan with hot, soapy
water and let stand several
minutes; then use a nylon
scrubber along sides and
bottom; rinse well and dry
thoroughly.
Rice boils over. Too much rice is being
cooked.
Make sure to cook no more
than the maximum amount
suggested. The amount of
rice to be cooked should
match the water markings
on the bowl.
Rice is too dry. Too much rice or not
enough water.
Use the rice measure that
comes with the multicooker.
The rice measure provided
holds about 5½ oz.
Rice is gummy. Too much water or not
enough rice.
Add water to match
markings on the rice
bowl. Do not use a liquid
measuring cup.
Mixture cooking is
boiling and I want to
simmer.
Temperature selection
may be too high.
Tap the TEMP button to
select a lower temperature
(we suggest 250ºF to
simmer).
