Possible Causes
Aging NTC temperature sensor, Poor contact between pot and heater plate, Firmware calibration issue
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Allow the cooker to cool before internal checks.
- Verify recipe and fill level: Confirm you are using correct water ratios and food quantities as per Xiaomi recipes.
- Check pot contact: Ensure the inner pot bottom is clean and flat, and the heater plate is free of debris.
- Test with water: Run a boiling test with water only and measure temperature with a kitchen thermometer. Significant deviation suggests sensor or control issues.
- Sensor replacement (advanced): If the base NTC sensor is suspected to be drifting, replace it with a new Xiaomi-compatible sensor.
- Firmware update: For smart models, update firmware via the Xiaomi Home app to correct possible calibration bugs.
- Service calibration: Some models require service tools to recalibrate temperature; contact an authorized service center if problems persist.
