Tsuki Mini Multifunction Rice Cooker by Yum Asia
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Make sure the appliance is on a flat surface, if it is on an
uneven surface, the water level becomes inconsistent and
it will affect the cooking of the rice.
The texture of rice varies depending on how it's been
processed
Using the 'Preset' function can result in a softer rice texture
if the rice has soaked in the water for a length of time.
Make sure the inner bowl isn't cracked
Did you loosen the rice after cooking? If not, do this to allow
excess water to evaporate
Make sure nothing is stuck to the inside of the rice cooker or
the bottom of the inner bowl
Rice may not have been washed enough, leaving too much
starch on the rice
Make sure the inner bowl isn't cracked
Check the 'Menu' setting you have selected and the water
level you have filled to
Make sure the steam vent cap is on the appliance
Make sure the power cord is pushed as far into the
appliance as possible
A clicking noise is just the microprocessor (MICOM)
adjusting the cooking temperature of the appliance, it is
nothing to worry about.
Check the outer lid is fitting properly and has not deformed.
Is the outer lid gasket dirty? If so, clean the outer lid gasket
Do not keep very small amounts of rice on 'Keep Warm'.
Has the 'Keep Warm' been used for more than 12 hours?
The type of rice and water may have caused the rice to
look yellow. Was the spatula left in the inner bowl whilst on
'Keep Warm'
Did you loosen rice immediately after it had cooked – if not,
loosen
It may be a left-over smell from a previous cooking cycle
(especially if slow cooking dishes)
The minimum default time is 1.5hrs, anything less than this
will Start the cooking cycle immediately
Cooking may not complete at the set time if the
temperature in the room or the water level is too low
Was there a power cut? This may cause the unit to reset
Is the inner bowl in place in the unit? If you try and operate
the unit without the bowl in place, this is a safety feature to
stop use without an inner bowl
Has the rice cooker boiled over?
