IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
THIS APPLIANCE IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED WHEN USING
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING.
Read all instructions thoroughly.
Avoid touching hot surfaces and do not close or clog the steam vent opening under any
circumstances. The handles and knobs are provided for your safety and protection.
To prevent hazardous operation or electric shock, do not immerse power cord, power plug, or rice
cooker (except inner cooking pan) in water or other liquids.
Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow the appliance to cool before adding
or removing parts, and before cleaning the appliance. Make sure appliance is OFF when not in
use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
Do not use or operate the appliance with a damaged cord or plug. If the appliance malfunctions or
has been damaged in any manner, unplug the appliance and return it to the nearest authorized
service facility or dealer for examination, repair or adjustment.
The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may be
hazardous or may cause malfunction.
Do not use outdoors.
Keep the power cord away from hot surfaces and do not let the cord hang over the edge of tables
or counters.
Do not place the appliance on or near a heated surface such as a gas or electric stove, or in a
heated oven.
Always use extreme caution when moving appliances containing hot contents or liquids.
Plug the cord into a household electrical outlet. To disconnect, turn the power control to OFF, then
remove plug from wall outlet.
Do not use the appliance for other than intended or specified purposes.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only the supplied inner cooking pan.
The heating element surface is subject to residual heat after use.
This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in scalds and injuries. Make sure
the unit is properly closed before operating.
Do not cook foods such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley or other cereals, split peas,
rhubarb, noodles, macaroni or other pasta. These foods tend to foam, froth or splatter and may
block the pressure release device.
Always check the pressure release devices for clogging before use.
Do not open the pressure rice cooker until the unit has cooled and the internal pressure has been
reduced.
Do not use this pressure rice cooker for pressure frying with oil.

This appliance is supplied with a short power cord to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or
tripping over. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is
used, the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance, and a longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug was designed to fit into a polarized outlet in only one direction. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, do not attempt to force it or modify it in any way. Simply reverse the plug and
insert. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.

Rice or other matter stuck on these areas may prevent
the Outer Lid from closing completely. During cooking
or Self-Cleaning, this may cause steam to come out
from the gap between the Outer Lid and the Main Body,
or cause the Outer Lid to open suddenly, and rice or
other ingredients may boil over. Additionally, for safety
purposes, it may prevent the Rice Cooker from
activating cooking or Self-Cleaning.
The Outer Lid may not open if rice or other matter is stuck.
If the Outer Lid is not
closed securely, it may
open during cooking, Keep
Warm or Self-Cleaning.
Press down on the center
front edge of the Outer Lid.
This Rice Cooker is designed for cooking rice and keeping rice warm as indicated in the
Operating Instructions and recipes. Do not use it for anything other than its intended purposes.

between the Outer Lid and the Main Body, or cause the Outer Lid to open suddenly, during cooking or Self-Cleaning.
