Reheating Cooked Rice
For piping hot rice, reheat the rice that is being kept
warm before serving it.
Note
● Rice will not be fully heated if more than half of
the inner pot is full.
● The rice will end up being dry if reheated under
any of the following conditions.
• The rice is still hot, such as immediately after
cooking.
• There is less than the minimum required
amount of rice (1 cup with the 1.0 L type, 2
cups with the 1.8 L type).
• The rice is reheated 3 times or more.
1
Stir and loosen the rice that was
being kept warm.
2
Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water
evenly over the rice.
● Adding water will prevent the rice from drying out
and result in plumper rice.
3
Make sure that the Keep Warm
lamp is on.
• Reheating is not available if the Keep Warm
lamp is not on. If the lamp is not on, press
the [Keep Warm] key. (See p.24.)
On
4
Press the [Start/Rinse-
free] key.
The Start lamp will blink and
reheating will start.
The remaining time will be
displayed and an alarm (3 long
beeps) will sound when the
operation is completed.
• To stop reheating, press the [Cancel] key.
• Reheating is not available if the rice is too
cold (131˚F [55˚C] or lower as a guideline).
In this case, a repeated beeping alarm will
sound.
5
Stir and loosen the reheated
rice well, and even it out in the
inner pot.
