To prevent electrical shock, personal injury or property damage, read and
follow all instructions and warnings.
•
To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric
parts in water or other liquids.
•
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug.
•
Do not operate when the appliance is not working properly or when it has been
damaged in any manner. For service information see warranty page.
•
Do not use electric parts outdoors, or place them on or near a gas or electric
burner, in a heated oven, or in the refrigerator.
•
Unplug the appliance from outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
•
Your rice cooker has a short cord as a safety precaution to avoid pulling, tripping
or entanglement. Position the cord so that it does not hang over the edge of the
counter, table or other area or touch hot surfaces.
•
While use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one, make
sure the cord has the same or higher wattage as the rice cooker (wattage is
stamped on the underside of the rice cooker base). Position the extension cord
so that it does not hang over the edge of any surface to avoid pulling, tripping or
entanglement.
•
Use an electrical outlet that accommodates the polarized plug on the rice
cooker. On a polarized plug, one blade of the plug is wider than the other. If the
plug does not fit fully into the outlet or extension cord, reverse the plug. If the
plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not alter the plug.
•
Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or
extension cord feels hot.
•
Never put liquid into the outer heating base. Add liquid only into the inner rice
pot.
•
Never plug rice cooker in without the inner rice cooker pot inside the heating
base.
•
Always keep the space between the inner rice pot and the heating plate of base
clean and free from any foreign particles.
•
Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet. To turn off,
remove plug from wall.
•
Keep the cord away from hot parts of the appliance and hot surfaces during
operation.
