Default Rice cooker, opening

Asked to fix one of these, but am stumped at the start: how does one open it? There's no screw on the plastic base under the label, and the feet aren't removable. The only other accessible screws are the 2 on the rear side: removing the top one doesn't free the wraparound side at all, the lower one is the earth connection. Puzzled.

The thing is o/c. It looks like a simple nonelectronic one, likely an easy fix if I work out how to open it!


I don't know how to get into it, but here's how that style works.
Very simple, but advanced thinking went into it.

I you don't want to hear about Latent heat of vaporization and
boiling water skip to 4:40.
