Caution:
Never use a damp cloth to clean the interior of the dispenser or collecting tray. In order to preserve foods, the interior of the dispenser must be kept dry.  Do not immerse the dispenser or any of its parts in water. Do not overfill the dispenser. The maximum capacity of this dispenser is 33 pounds (15 kg.) of rice. Do not fill the dispenser if the interior is wet. Food will not properly store and preserve if there is any moisture in the storage container. Do not turn the dispensing knob more than 5 consecutive times without first collecting the food dispensed into the collecting tray. The collecting tray cannot contain more than 5 cups of dry food at a time.

Note:

• When turning the dispensing knob, note that there should be 2 to 3 seconds interval time between each 90 degree turn. To ensure every turn will dispense a full volume of dry food, gently shake the dispenser to settle the dry food inside.
• Rice roughly doubles in amount when cooked. 1 cup of uncooked rice is equal to 2 cups of cooked rice.
• To remove the storage container, flip up both of the locking latches on either side of the base.
