Troubleshooting
Rice is too dry or hard.
Add slightly more water during the cooking process. Use the provided measuring cup for accurate water-to-rice ratios.
Rice is too mushy.
Use slightly less water. Ensure you are using the correct rice-to-water ratio.
Rice cooker won't turn on.
Check that the power cord is securely plugged in and the outlet is working. Also, ensure the cooker is properly assembled.
