The inner pot features a water-based non-stick coating which is environmentally friendly and highly non-stick. It is similar to coatings used in most high-end domestic products in the industry. It is not recommended to place the inner pot on a gas stove or induction stove. Gas stove temperatures can exceed 300°C, damaging the non-stick coating of the rice cooker's inner pot. Please avoid using the product in this method to prevent damage.
