Common FAQs

What are the main advantages of the 2.8-liter RM/290 compared to smaller models?

The 2.8L capacity is specifically tailored for larger households, family dinners, or small commercial setups, allowing you to prepare up to 16 cups of cooked rice in a single batch without needing multiple cooking cycles.

How do I use the steam basket while cooking rice?

Add your raw rice and water into the main non-stick pot according to your desired cup quantity. Place the steam basket with your vegetables or proteins directly on top of the pot, cover with the glass lid, and press down the cook switch to steam food concurrently.

How do I prevent rice from scorching on the bottom of the pot?

Rinse raw rice thoroughly in a bowl prior to cooking to wash away excess surface starch. Additionally, ensure you use the included measuring cup to maintain accurate water-to-rice ratios.

What is the proper way to clean the non-stick inner pot?

Allow the pot to cool down completely after use, then clean using a soft sponge and mild dish soap. Never use abrasive metal scrubbers or steel wool, as they will scratch and damage the non-stick coating.

Does the cooker shut off automatically when cooking is complete?

Yes, once all liquid is absorbed and turned into steam, the internal thermostat automatically trips the control lever from “Cook” mode to “Warm” mode to keep your food hot and ready to serve without burning.
