How to clean a rice cooker First, soak its pan and inner lid in lukewarm water and wash it with a sponge. Avoid using cold water. Then, wipe its body with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in water. Remember that moisture should be removed and cleaned after each use. Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool. Clean with non- metal brush or sponge, so that you will not scratch the pan’s surface. Why can’t we use metal brush sponge to clean a rice cooker?
