Possible Causes

Firmware calibration issue, Faulty temperature sensor, Stuck heater relay, Incorrect pot size or non-original pot

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Monitor the cooker during keep-warm until the issue is resolved.

  • Use original pot: Ensure you are using the correct Philips inner pot. Non-original pots can affect temperature sensing.
  • Reduce keep-warm time: Manually turn off keep-warm after a shorter period to prevent overcooking.
  • Sensor/relay check: If the base feels excessively hot on keep-warm, the sensor or relay may be faulty. A technician should test and replace the affected components.
