IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electrical appliances, especially when children are present, basic safety precautions should always be taken, including the following: 1. Read all instructions. 2. Always attach plug to appliance first, before plugging into wall outlet. To disconnect, turn control to OFF, then remove plug from outlet. 3. Do not place the pressure cooker on any stovetop or in a heated oven. 4. Do not touch hot surfaces of pressure cooker. Use handles only. 5. This appliance should not be used by or near children or individuals with certain disabilities. 6. NEVER ATTEMPT TO OPEN LID WHILE THE UNIT IS OPERATING. Do not open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all internal pressure has been released. If lid is difficult to rotate, this indicates that the cooker is still pressurized. Do not attempt to force it to open. Any pressure in the cooker can be hazardous. See Operating Instructions, page 5. 7. Extreme caution must be used when moving a pressure cooker containing hot liquids or foods. 8. Do not use the pressure cooker for other than its intended use. 9. This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in a scalding injury. Make certain unit is properly closed before operating. See Instructions for Use, page 4. 10. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or outer vessel in water or other liquids. 11. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or removing parts. 12. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment. 13. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces. 14. Use of accessories not specifically recommended by Cuisinart may cause damage to unit. 15. Do not use outdoors. 16. Do not use under hanging cabinets; steam from pressure release may cause damage. 17. Do not fill unit over 2⁄3 full (Max line). When cooking foods that expand during cooking, such as dried vegetables, legumes, beans, and grains, do not fill the unit over ½ full. Overfilling may cause a risk of clogging the pressure limit valve and developing excess pressure. Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal and other cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, or pasta can foam, froth and sputter, and clog the pressure release devices. 18. Always check the pressure release devices for clogging or sticking. Both pressure devices must move freely before use (see Parts #1 and #2 on page 3). 19. Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure frying with oil. 20. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or under a wall cabinet. When storing in an appliance garage, always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of fire, especially if the appliance touches the walls of the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY 2
