an accident:

Measure the quantity of rice and water according to the Instructions on
pages 11-12.
2
Clean the Rice Cooker, particularly the condensation collector, after each
use (see Care & Cleaning section of this manual).

DO NOT expose to water, high humidity, or heat sources. DO NOT use the
pot directly on an open flame.
5
Be sure to keep the unit out of the reach of children.
6
Keep holes that drain into the condensation collector clean and free
of debris.
7
Cooking with the switch in KEEP WARM position will cause low heat
cooking and this will not cook the rice properly.

The unit becomes hot when in use. DO NOT touch the lid with your hand,
and do not place your face or hand directly over the steam coming from
the cooker.
9
Always keep the outside bottom of the pot and the heating plate
clean and dry. Any foreign matter between them will cause the unit
to malfunction.
10
DO NOT tilt the Rice Cooker on its edge or place it upside down with
its power supply plug connected or with food in the pot as this may
cause damage to the cooker or injury to yourself. When tilting or placing
the Rice Cooker upside down, make sure to disconnect the power
supply plug.

Do not fill the unit above the MAXIMUM CUP MARKING.
12
The lid must be closed tightly in the latched position at all times during
cooking. (i.e. The unit must not be operated with the lid opened).
13
DO NOT cover the lid with a cloth. The lid may deform or change color.
14
DO NOT damage the power cord and do not attempt to repair it if it
is damaged.
15
Never attempt to customize the cord. Keep the cord away from high
temperatures. Avoid unnecessary bending, twisting and pulling on the
cord. Never place heavy objects on the cord or attempt to tie it up. Using
a damaged power cord can lead to electrical shock, shorting or fire.
16
Ensure that the plug fits all the way into the outlet, partially plugged-in
cords may cause electric hazard.
