Keeping your Reishunger Electric Rice Cooker and Steamer clean is key to its longevity and performance. Here's a simple cleaning guide:

1. Safety First: Always unplug the rice cooker and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Component Cleaning: The internal pot, steaming insert, and condensate collecting tray should be washed after each use. Use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or metal objects to prevent damage.
3. Exterior Care: Wipe the cooker's body and the heating plate with a damp cloth. Ensure these areas, and the outside of the inner pot, are completely dry before the next use.
4. Dishwasher Warning: Please note that the Reishunger Electric Rice Cooker and Steamer components are not dishwasher safe; hand washing is recommended.
