Most crockpot recipes cannot only be made in a rice cooker, they can be made much faster. I have both but I almost never use my crockpot. Apparently the crockpot, because it cooks so much longer, makes meat, etc, more tender than a rice cooker, but I normally use mine for soups and stews, and it does a great job. Also, crockpots don't make the best rice, and it take them 2 or 3 times as long to do it, whereas rice cookers make PERFECT rice. You can also fry and sautee things with a rice cooker in a pinch, or as the first step in a recipe. And most things you can make in a pot, like those noodle packages where you just add water or milk, etc, can be made in a rice cooker even easier, since they don't need to be stirred! I got my rice cooker as a present and used it only for occasional rice the first year. Then I started getting creative and it has never let me down. If I could pick only one cooking appliance to have for the rest of my life, it would probably be either the microwave (just for pure convenience sake, and popcorn. :P) or the rice cooker.

Thoroughly clean it then try a little bit of oil.

Here is the manual in case you do not have it:. Scroll down until you find "Documentation" and then download the instructions. http://www.krupsusa.com/KITCHEN-APPLIANCES/DEEP-FRYERS/4-5L-Deep-Fryer-with-3-Baskets-KJ502D51/p/8000035750 As far as the error code goes, Krups does not list anything. However, there is a reset button on this unit (see the manual), it may need deep cleaning, OR the internal battery needs to be replaced. If none of that works contact Krups (number inside the manual or on the website) customer support and see what they say.

To make rice, remove the trivet if you have one as this is only for steaming food. Wash rice to get rid of excess starch and put in pan. Then add the same amount of water as rice (2 cups water to 2 cups rice etc.) then shut lid and switch on and leave it. Once it has switched off do not open the lid for a further 20 minutes (the machine will keep the rice warm do not worry) Stir rice and serve. Most rice cookers will keep the rice warm for a couple of hours. If you find the rice is a bit dry then add a little bit more water, the amount of water really depends on the quality of rice used.
