Possible Causes
Missing or damaged internal insulation, Gaps between inner pot and housing, Overheating due to blocked vents, Warped inner pot transferring heat to side walls
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Some warmth is normal, but surfaces should not cause burns. Unplug and cool the unit before inspection.
- Check placement: Ensure the cooker is used on a heat-resistant surface with adequate clearance around it for ventilation.
- Inspect vents: Make sure side and bottom vents are not blocked by objects or dust buildup.
- Inspect inner pot and housing: Verify the pot is not rubbing against the side walls. Replace a warped pot that contacts the housing.
- Internal insulation: If comfortable opening the unit, inspect any internal insulation wraps or shields around the cooking chamber. Replace missing or damaged insulation.
