Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup: Place the unit on a flat, heat-resistant surface. Before first use, wash the removable inner pot and steam vent with warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly.
Usage Tips: Always use the included measuring cup for rice to ensure the correct water-to-grain ratio. Use only the provided plastic paddle to avoid scratching the non-stick surface of the inner pot.
Cleaning: To maintain the non-stick coating, allow the pot to cool before soaking. Never use abrasive metal scouring pads. The lid is detachable for cleaning; simply release the latch, wipe it down, and ensure it is completely dry before reattaching.
Maintenance: Regularly clear any debris from the steam vent to ensure pressure regulation works correctly during the cooking cycle.
