4. 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 appliance to the nearest
authorized service facility for examination, repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
5. If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an authorized
service agent or a qualified technician in order to avoid a hazard.
6. NEVER deep fry or pressure fry in the pressure cooker. It is very dangerous and may
cause a fire, serious burns and/or damage.
7. Keep hands and face away from pressure regulator knob when releasing pressure.
8. After completing cooking, use extreme caution when removing the lid. Burns can

rhubarb, split peas, noodles and pasta - as these foods tend to froth and foam, blocking
the floating valve.
