Do you have manual, or know how to use, a Zojirushi NS-JCC10 rice cooker?

[Rabrrrrrr]

Or instructions for a similar one?

I have this rice cooker, and I bloody love it, but I've not had the instruction manual for years. All I know how to do is cook rice in the moment (that is, not using timer), and I'd like to know how to fully use the damn thing.

I searched on the web, but even the zojirushi web site doesn't have instructions.

If you have the manual, or if you know how to use it, and can just quickly summarize them... or post a scan of it or something, that would be mighty helpful.

And apologies for the fractured english in the thread title - it was the only to fit the information in.

1. I searched, but found nothing.

I often have to dig for manuals/spec sheets. The company does not even host their own.

2. You might ask in one of the NNTP newsgroups where people have them.

Here are some listed by Google Groups.

3. Don't spend so much time searching

Email them and tell them you'd relaly appreciate it if you could get an instruction manual from them.

Be sure to tell them how your recently passed away mother always loved making the family rice with that cooker, and that ( optional ) you miss her perfect rice and would like to know how she did it.

I'll tell ya, man, writing companies almost always pays off well.

I once wrote Frank's Red Hot and told them how much I loved their Chili & Lime blend hot sauce and they mailed me coupons for a free version of every one of their products.

4. So if I wrote the US gov., saying how much I miss having a president,

do you think they'll offer a replacement?

:-)

That is a good idea to write to them, though. Especially since they're a Japanese company. Though if I write to them, and let them know that they were not perfect enough to create a manual that cannot be lost, I bet the CEO will kill himself.

5. ROFL harsh, but funny as hell....(the CEO comment was harsh, not the

President one)

:rofl:

8. Well, I'm part Japanese practically,

so I have some experience with the mindset...

7. Yeah yeah yeah

The person that suggested to me that writing to the manufacturer would reap rewards was a jarhead who went on to designing NASA's next Mars Rover.

It works. Write them.

6. Contact them

They seem to welcome questions by phone, fax, or email. I am sure they could send you the instructions free of charge.
