SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance is intended for household use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do
not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.
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 rice cooker. 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.
Do not place the unit directly under cabinets when operating as this product produces large amounts of steam. Avoid reaching over the product when operating.

PRÉCAUTIONS IMPORTANTES
Lors de l’utilisation d’appareils électroménagers, des précautions sécuritaires fondamentales doivent toujours être observées, y compris ce qui suit :
1.Lire toutes les instructions.
2.Ne pas toucher des surfaces chaudes. Utiliser des maniques lorsque vous devez déplacer des récipients chauds.
3.Afin de vous prémunir contre le risque de choc électrique, ne pas plonger le cordon d’alimentation, la fiche ou la base dans l’eau ou tout autre liquide.
4.Il est nécessaire de surveiller attentivement les enfants lorsque ceux-ci utilisent l’appareil ou se trouvent à proximité de celui-ci.
5.Débrancher l’appareil de la prise de courant lorsque vous ne l’utilisez pas. Débrancher l’appareil avant d’enlever ou de remettre des pièces en place et le laisser refroidir avant de le nettoyer.
6.Ne pas faire fonctionner un appareil avec un cordon ou une fiche endommagé(e), ou lorsque l’appareil ne fonctionne pas bien, est tombé ou a été endommagé d’une manière quelconque. Composer notre numéro sans frais d’assistance à la clientèle pour des renseignements concernant l’examen, la réparation ou le réglage.
7.L’utilisation de tout accessoire non recommandé par Hamilton Beach/Protor-Silex, Inc., peut entraîner des dangers.
8.Ne pas utiliser à l’extérieur.
9.Ne pas laisser le cordon pendre au bord d’une table ou d’un comptoir ou entrer en contact avec une surface chaude.
10.Ne pas placer l’appareil sur ou près d’un brûleur électrique ou à gaz chaud, ou dans un four chauffé.
11.Une extrême prudence s’impose en déplaçant un appareil qui contient des aliments, de l’eau, ou tout autre liquide, chauds.
12.Pour débrancher, soulever l’interrupteur, et retirer la fiche de la prise murale.
13.N’utiliser cet appareil qu’aux fins auxquelles il a été conçu.
14.Soulever et ouvrir le couvercle soigneusement pour éviter de se faire ébouillanter, et laisser couler dans le cuiseur l’eau accumulée dans le couvercle.
15.Mise en garde : Afin de réduire le risque de choc électrique, faire cuire les aliments uniquement dans le récipient amovible.
CONSERVER CES
INSTRUCTIONS!
RENSEIGNEMENTS DE SÉCURITÉ
AUX CONSOMMATEURS
Cet appareil est conçu uniquement pour l’usage domestique.
Cet appareil est muni d’une fiche polarisée. Ce type de fiche a une lame plus large que l’autre. La fiche pourra être insérée dans une prise électrique dans un sens seulement. Il s’agit d’une caractéristique de sécurité visant à réduire le risque de choc électrique. Si la fiche ne peut pas être insérée dans la prise, essayer d’inverser la fiche. Si cela ne fonctionne toujours pas, contacter un électricien qualifié pour qu’il remplace la prise désuète. Ne pas essayer de contourner l’objectif de sécurité de la fiche polarisée en la modifiant de quelque manière que ce soit.
La longueur du cordon utilisé avec cet appareil a été sélectionnée pour réduire les risques d’emmêlement ou de trébuchement sur un cordon plus long. Si un cordon plus long est nécessaire, on peut utiliser une rallonge approuvée. Le calibre de la rallonge doit être égal ou supérieur au calibre du cuiseur de riz. La rallonge doit être installée avec précaution pour éviter qu’elle ne tombe sur le comptoir ou la table car des enfants peuvent tirer dessus ou trébucher accidentellement.
Ne pas faire marcher le cuiseur directement au-dessous des placards de cuisine, étant donné que le fonctionnement de cet appareil génère énormément de vapeur. Ne pas essayer d’atteindre tout article qui se trouve au-dessus du cuiseur en fonctionnement.
