Cautions towards enabling the long-term use of this rice cooker
Remove any burnt rice or remaining grains of rice.
Failure to do so may cause steam to leak or contents to boil over. This may result in malfunction or
improperly cooked rice.
Do not cover the rice cooker with a cloth or other object during cooking.
Doing so may cause the rice cooker or the lid to become deformed or discolored.
Do not reheat (keep warm) cooked rice that has cooled down.
This is to avoid malfunctions or fire.
The holes on the rice cooker are designed to maintain its functions and performance. In extremely rare cases, dust
or even insects may enter these holes and cause malfunction. To prevent this, a commercially available insect
prevention sheet, etc., is recommended. If a malfunction does occur due to this problem, it will not be covered by
warranty. Contact the JAPAN TIGER CORPORATION.
The inner pot's fluorocarbon resin coating may wear and peel with extended use. This material is harmless to
