  • Choose a recipe and according to him put the products in the pan.
  • Place the pan inside the appliance.
  • Check whether the multicooker is on the network, set the program and press the "start" button.

  If you accidentally poured food past the pan, and they hit the internal contacts, but you need to clean the slow cooker, dry it and turn it on after that.

  The reasons for the fact that the multicooker turned off prematurely may be the following:

  • the recipe is broken or the wrong mode is selected, for example, there is not enough water, or too many products;

  • on the heating surface, something got;
  • clogged valve through which steam comes out;
  • is present bowl defect;
  • there is a problem with the thermal sensor due to marriage.

  In the latter case, you must immediately contact the service center.

  

  Multicooker errors

  Sometimes the multicooker does not turn on and displays codes with letters and numbers on the screen. These are error codes, knowing the decoding of which, you can understand the reasons for the failure. Many codes are known only to specialists who are engaged in repair, and manufacturers. Some errors can be corrected only as a result of complex repairs. But there is a list of codes, which is already known to the ordinary consumer.

  Thus, by trial and error, inquisitive domestic users determined that e0-e4 errors indicate the reasons related to a short circuit or break in the temperature sensor( upper / lower / thermal fuse).In different models, codes can be deciphered in different ways, so if you want to make repairs yourself, for example, you need to open the case and take measurements of the resistance to determine the place of the break.

  You can clean the contacts of the thermal relay, which turns on the heat. It is located in the lower part of the device, and in order to get to it, it is necessary to unscrew the screw and remove the lower part( bottom) of the multicooker. The thermostat is next to the electronic board. The copper contacts are slightly unclenched and cleaned using paper or fine-grained sandpaper. The reason for the acidification of the contacts can be condensate or moisture, as a result of the liquid spilled past the pan.

  How to clean the multicooker

  In the process of cooking, food slices fly past the pots, sometimes porridge boils, sometimes milk or water is spilled. All this leads to the fact that the internal structure of the multicooker becomes clogged, and it does not turn on or heats up badly, or emits an unpleasant burning smell. That is why it is necessary to periodically clean the slow cooker. This should be done by a person who knows how to handle household appliances.

  • Unscrew the bolts at the bottom and remove the bottom, it can be snaps on. There you can see all the traces of cooking( cereal, jam, spilled soup, etc.)
  • Unscrew the heater, disconnect the wires from it, disconnect the button. The heater will need to be removed from the inside and cleaned.
  • If necessary, remove and clean the case.

  All washed parts should be dried, after which they are put together. If you are afraid of getting tangled up in screws and wiring, then take pictures of each disassembly step.

  

  Before going to the service center

  Do not rush to go to the service center if your multicooker does not heat and does not turn on. It is possible that you yourself can determine why this is happening, and can even fix the problem.

  • Turn on the device to a different outlet, perhaps the first outlet had poor contact.
  • Check if there is a wire somewhere.
  • Check the instructions, do you do everything right. Go through each item to not miss anything.
  • Dry the device. Maybe it got water when you wash it.

  We will separately tell what to do if water gets inside the contacts. First of all, the device must be disconnected from the network. Then it is turned over and shaken out. To inside the water evaporated faster, the slow cooker can be put in the sun or leaned against the battery. You can speed up the drying process with the help of a hair dryer by running a stream of warm air from the bottom and the inside.

  How to replace the thermal fuse

  A common breakdown of the multicooker is a blown thermal fuse. With a strong voltage surge or as a result of an incorrect mode of operation, the fuse operates and does not allow the entire device to deteriorate. In this case, it must be replaced in order for the slow cooker to start cooking again.

  In order to make a replacement, it is necessary to disassemble the slow cooker and get to the heater. In the middle of the heater there is a button. It is removed with a knife and disassembled. Among the wires are black or orange, pull it and move the insulating tube on it. Under it is a blown fuse.

  Fuse need to bite off with nippers closer to the body. Instead, a new thermal fuse is inserted with the same parameters as the old one. Usually it is designed for 220-250 V, 10-15 A and the response temperature of 170-180 °.Contacts are clamped with crimping pliers using clips.
