In addition, the lid is equipped with an opening auxiliary spring to provide power for the opening. Therefore, after the lid is closed, there will be a certain amount of rebound, forming a tiny gap with the main body;
2. Most rice cookers in the industry are designed with an upper and lower buckle structure. The gap between the closed lid and the main body is a design reservation, which is a normal phenomenon;
3. There is a design reserved gap between the closed lid and the main body of the rice cooker. At this point, there will be upward and downward movement when pressing the closed lid with your hand, which means there will be slight shaking after closing the lid. This is also a normal phenomenon.

During the cooking process, the hot steam is emitted through plastic components such as the steam valve and the steam outlet on the top cover, which will bring out some plastic odors. This is a normal phenomenon, and boiling it with hot water several times can effectively remove this plastic smell. This odor will not enter the rice, so please feel free to use it.
44. Q: Why does the Xiaomi Multifunctional Rice Cooker 4L have a plastic smell when opened for the first time?
A: The components of the rice cooker that come into contact with food are made of materials that comply with food hygiene standards. You can feel free to use it.
It is normal for the rice cooker to have a slight plastic smell during the unboxing process. Plastic products and packaging materials usually have some plastic odor due to their own material and other factors. After storing the rice cooker in the sealed space of the packaging for a period of time, the odor will gather and the smell will be more noticeable when opening the box for the first time. This will not affect normal usage, and boiling it with hot water several times can effectively remove this plastic smell.

13. Q: Why does the electric pen light up when testing the inner pot of the Xiaomi Multifunctional Rice Cooker 4L, but there's no sensation when touching the inner pot with hands? Is this a leakage?
A: This voltage belongs to induced electricity and does not cause any harm to the human body. Please free feel to use it.
1. When the rice cooker is powered on, the metal shell will have an induced electric field. Therefore, the product is equipped with an earth wire that will discharge to the ground. If the earth wire of the socket is damaged, the metal shell of the rice cooker will have a small amount of induced electricity residue, but this is not harmful to the human body;
2. The product is a Class I appliance and is equipped with grounding protection. The rice cooker needs to be used on a socket with a good earth wire;
3. Earth wire is a method of electrical protection, which is used to quickly introduce current to the ground through the earth wire when the appliance leaks electricity or has induced electricity, thereby making the appliance no longer electrified and ensuring usage safety.
Please refer to the instructions for leakage and induced current:
1. A leakage is caused by damage to the AC part of the device, which leads to the device's shell becoming electrified and can harm the human body;
2. An induced electric field is generated by the interaction between the device's electromagnetic field and the metal shell. Since the induced electric field does not form a circuit, it will not discharge to the human body.

11. Q: When using the Xiaomi Multifunctional Rice Cooker 4L to cook congee the night before, why would the congee overflow when reheating it with the congee mode next day?
A: As the congee will solidify after being placed overnight, the density of gas in saturated vapor will increase, accelerating the floating of bubble liquid, which will inevitably lead to overflow. It is recommended to add a small amount of water to the congee and stir it evenly before heating. Please select the congee mode to heat it, so that the congee will not overflow.
Note:
Please don't use other modes to heat congee.

Explanation of the reserved gap for sealing:
1. The lid of the rice cooker is a movable component. Closing the lid is achieved by locking the lid with the front end of the pot. To ensure smooth opening and closing of the lid, a certain gap needs to be reserved between the lid and the main body. In addition, the lid is equipped with an opening auxiliary spring to provide power for the opening. Therefore, after the lid is closed, there will be a certain amount of rebound, forming a tiny gap with the main body;
2. Most rice cookers in the industry are designed with an upper and lower buckle structure. The gap between the closed lid and the main body is a design reservation, which is a normal phenomenon;
3. There is a design reserved gap between the closed lid and the main body of the rice cooker. At this point, there will be upward and downward movement when pressing the closed lid with your hand, which means there will be slight shaking after closing the lid. This is also a normal phenomenon.

A: The components of the rice cooker that come into contact with food are made of materials that comply with food hygiene standards. You can feel free to use it.
During the cooking process, the hot steam is emitted through plastic components such as the steam valve and the steam outlet on the top cover, which will bring out some plastic odors. This is a normal phenomenon, and boiling it with hot water several times can effectively remove this plastic smell. This odor will not enter the rice, so please feel free to use it.
44. Q: Why does the Xiaomi Multifunctional Rice Cooker 4L have a plastic smell when opened for the first time?
A: The components of the rice cooker that come into contact with food are made of materials that comply with food hygiene standards. You can feel free to use it.
It is normal for the rice cooker to have a slight plastic smell during the unboxing process. Plastic products and packaging materials usually have some plastic odor due to their own material and other factors. After storing the rice cooker in the sealed space of the packaging for a period of time, the odor will gather and the smell will be more noticeable when opening the box for the first time. This will not affect normal usage, and boiling it with hot water several times can effectively remove this plastic smell.
Troubleshooting
1. Q: What to do if the Xiaomi Multifunctional Rice Cooker 4L overflows when cooking congee?
A: For your reference, please refer to the following methods:
1. Please cook congee by following the ratio of rice and water on the scale of the inner pot (refer to the user manual);

13. Q: Why does the electric pen light up when testing the inner pot of the Xiaomi Multifunctional Rice Cooker 4L, but there's no sensation when touching the inner pot with hands? Is this a leakage?
A: This voltage belongs to induced electricity and does not cause any harm to the human body. Please free feel to use it.
1. When the rice cooker is powered on, the metal shell will have an induced electric field. Therefore, the product is equipped with an earth wire that will discharge to the ground. If the earth wire of the socket is damaged, the metal shell of the rice cooker will have a small amount of induced electricity residue, but this is not harmful to the human body;
2. The product is a Class I appliance and is equipped with grounding protection. The rice cooker needs to be used on a socket with a good earth wire;
3. Earth wire is a method of electrical protection, which is used to quickly introduce current to the ground through the earth wire when the appliance leaks electricity or has induced electricity, thereby making the appliance no longer electrified and ensuring usage safety.
Please refer to the instructions for leakage and induced current:
1. A leakage is caused by damage to the AC part of the device, which leads to the device's shell becoming electrified and can harm the human body;
2. An induced electric field is generated by the interaction between the device's electromagnetic field and the metal shell. Since the induced electric field does not form a circuit, it will not discharge to the human body.
