I bought the Zojirushi NP-NVC10 rice cooker last year and have used it only a handful of times (wanted a forget about it solution to making rice on the countertop at a catered event that didnt have adequate stove space). Besides it boiling over/venting steam that left a starchy residue I still can’t get off all its vents and underside, I noticed the clock was off. I set the clock to my cell phone (GPS turned on, sync’s with atomic clock every 10min so I know its accurate). This is 90 days elapsed time: ricemaker shows 7:37, cell phone shows 7:54. 17 minutes over 3 months is a pretty big discrepency!
so, this has me asking all types of questions, and will stores closed, can’t exactly walk back in with it to exchange it or ask questions.
1. Is the clock display just a stand-alone function, or is this a display of the bios clock?
2. Is the clock accuracy adjustable as a manual watch would be to sync it up to actual time
3. Is the clock inaccuracy affecting any other functionality? This is one of the highest rated and supposedly most accurate automatic rice machines available (yes I know, I can just use a pot of water on the stove, which is what I usually do and why this has almost no use).
4. Could the boiling over issue (venting thick bubbles of gooey starch) be a malfunction in the system as well, or is that normal/expected (directions and measurements were followed)
