IMPORTANT

SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:

1.Read all instructions.

2.Do not touch hot surfaces of pressure cooker. Use handles only.

3.Close supervision is necessary when the pressure cooker is used near children. It is not intended for use by children.

4.NEVER ATTEMPT TO OPEN LID WHILE THE UNIT IS OPERATING.

Do not open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all internal pressure has been released. If lid is difficult to rotate, this indicates that the cooker is still pressurized. Do not force it to open. Any pressure in the cooker can be hazardous. See Operating Instructions, page 5.

5.Do not place the pressure cooker in a heated oven or on any stovetop.

6.Extreme caution must be used when moving a pressure cooker containing hot liquids or foods.

7.Do not use the pressure cooker for other than intended use.

8.This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in scalding injury. Make certain unit is properly closed before operating. See Operating Instructions, page 5.

9.Do not fill unit over 35 full. When cooking foods that expand during cooking, such as dried vegetables, legumes, beans, and grains, do not fill the unit over ½ full. Overfilling may cause a risk of clogging the pressure limit valve and developing excess pressure.

10.To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or outer vessel in water or other liquids.

11.Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or removing parts.

12.Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner.

13.Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

14.Use of accessories not specifically recommended by Cuisinart may cause damage to unit.

15.Do not use outdoors.

16.Do not use under hanging cabinets; steam from pressure release may cause damage.

17.Always attach plug to appliance first, before plugging into wall outlet. To disconnect, turn control to “off”, then remove plug from outlet.

18.Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal and other cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, or spaghetti can foam, froth and sputter, and clog the pressure release devices. These foods should not be cooked in a pressure cooker unless following a CuisinartElectric Pressure Cooker recipe.

19.Always check the pressure release devices for clogging before use.

20.Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure frying oil.

SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If a long extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
