Possible Causes
Mis-calibrated temperature sensor, Firmware bug in keep-warm control, Poor heat distribution due to warped pot, Residual high heat from previous cycle not accounted for
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the cooker before internal inspection.
- Use shorter keep-warm times: Manually turn off keep warm after 30–60 minutes to prevent overcooking.
- Add liquid: Leave a small amount of extra liquid in the pot when using keep warm.
- Check pot and plate: Ensure the inner pot is not warped and the heating plate is clean for even heat.
- Sensor replacement: If keep warm is excessively hot regardless of load, replace the bottom temperature sensor and, if needed, the control board.
