When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following.
1.   Read all instructions.
2.  Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3.  Keep the rice cooker out of the children’s reach, especially when cooking rice.
4.  Unplug from wall outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off
 parts.
5.  Do not operate the appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been
 

damaged in any manner.

6.  Use of accessory attachments no recommended by SHARP may cause injuries.
7.  Do not use outdoors.
8.  Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot food, water or other hot liquids.
9.  Do not use the appliance for other than intended use.
10. Always unplug and let the rice cooker cool down before cleaning.
11. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

1.  Be sure to remove the sheet of protective paper located between the inner pot and heater plate
 

before using the rice cooking.

2.  Avoid using the rice cooker, if the power supply cord becomes hot. Should this happen, have a qualified

 

electrician check the rice cooker.

3.  Use on a flat, stable surface.

4.  Use the inner pot only in the rice cooker; never on the range top or in the microwave oven.
5.  Do not turn the rice cooker on without both rice and water in the inner pot. Avoid using the rice cooker to
 

heat just water.
