SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in 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 defeat this safety feature.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord
may be used with care; however, be sure the marked electrical
rating is at least as great as the electrical rating of this
appliance. The extension cord should be positioned such that it does
not drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over. The electrical rating of this appliance is listed
on the bottom panel of the unit.
Before Your First Use
Carefully unpack the pressure cooker and parts, and remove all
packaging materials. Wash the pan, lid and gasket in warm, soapy
water to remove any dust that may have accumulated during
packaging. Wipe cord and temperature control with a dry cloth. Do
not immerse the cord or plug in water or other liquid.

putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. To disconnect,
turn unit off, grasp plug, and pull from the wall. Never yank on
cord.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any
manner. Return the appliance to an authorized service facility for
examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
8. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the
appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
