3. Engadir auga: Place the rinsed rice into the removable inner pot. Add the appropriate amount of water. A common ratio is 1 cup of rice to 2 cups of water, but this may vary based on rice type and desired consistency. Refer to the rice packaging for specific recommendations.

7 Solución de problemas

Se tes algún problema coa túa cociña de arroz, consulta os seguintes problemas e solucións comúns:

• Rice is too hard/undercooked: Ensure the correct rice-to-water ratio was used. Add a small amount of extra water and cook for a few more minutes if necessary.
• Rice is too soft/mushy: Reduce the amount of water used for the next batch. Ensure rice is not over-rinsed, which can absorb too much water.
• Rice sticks to the bottom: Ensure the inner pot's non-stick coating is intact. Use the provided rice spatula to avoid scratching. A thin layer of oil can be added to the pot before adding rice and water.
• A cociña non se acende: Check if the power cord is securely plugged into both the appliance and the wall outlet. Ensure the 'Cook' switch is pressed down.
• Steam escaping excessively from the lid: Ensure the lid is properly seated and not damaged.
