Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one
wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may
be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal
to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken
to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
accidentally tripped over.

Cleaning the Rice Cooker
Electric Shock Hazard.
w WARNING
Do not immerse base in water or any other liquid.
1. Unplug cord from wall outlet.
2. Wash cooking pot, lid, rice measuring cup, and paddle in hot,
soapy water or top rack in the dishwasher.
3. Rinse, dry, and reassemble to store.
4. Wipe base with a soft, damp cloth, or a scrub pad safe
for all surfaces. Do not clean with abrasive cleansers.
TIPS:
• Allow rice to “stand” for approximately 5 to 10 minutes after
cooking is complete. This will give you a better-textured rice.
• Give rice an additional flavor by substituting chicken, beef, or
vegetable broth for the water.
• Always keep opened uncooked rice in an airtight container.
• Store cooked rice in your refrigerator up to 3 to 5 days.
• Brown rice can be kept in your freezer up to 6 months to
extend its shelf life.
• Add cooked leftover rice to recipes such as meatloaf, soups,
and casseroles to feed more people.
