Taking care of the pot
For the pot, carefully follow the instructions below:
• To ensure the maintenance of pot quality, it is recommended not to cut
food in it.
• Make sure you put the pot back into the rice cooker.
• Use the plastic spoon provided or a wooden spoon and not a metal type
so as to avoid damaging the pot surface – fig.14.
• To avoid any risk of corrosion, do not pour vinegar into the pot.
• The color of the pot surface may change after using for the first time or
after longer use. This change in color is due to the action of steam and

is it dangerous for your health. It is perfectly safe to continue using it.
