Possible Causes
Warped inner pot bottom, Dirty heater plate, Faulty bottom NTC sensor, Starch buildup affecting heat distribution
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug and allow the cooker to cool before cleaning.
- Clean contact surfaces: Remove the inner pot and thoroughly clean the heater plate and central sensor with a soft cloth. Remove any burnt residue.
- Inspect inner pot: Check the bottom of the Tiger inner pot for warping, scratches, or coating damage. Replace if the bottom is not perfectly flat.
- Rinse rice properly: Excess starch can cause sticking and scorching. Rinse rice until water runs mostly clear.
- Test with water only: Run a short cycle with just water to see if boiling appears even. If the cooker still overheats or shuts off, the temperature sensor or control board may be out of calibration.
