This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to
fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully
in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

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

Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are
available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
(1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
and (2) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.

Clean the Glass Lid, Cooking Pot, Wire Steaming Rack, Rice Paddle
and Rice Measuring Cup following the Cleaning Instructions
described in this Manual.
