Safety Precautions
Please observe these precautions fully
WARNING 
Power Cord
Never do anything that might  cause damage 
to the cord, power plug or body plug, 
such as damage them, modify them, place hot 
objects near to them, bend them, twist them, 
stretch them, place heavy objects on them, or 
bundle them together. 
If the unit is used when damaged, electrical 
short circuit or fire may result. 
  If the supply cord is damaged, it must be  
  replaced by a special cord available from  
  the manufacturer or its service agent. 
 
Do not connect or disconnect the power 
plug or the body plug with wet hands. 
This may result in electric shock. 
 
Do not allow infants access the body plug. 
You must pay special attention to prevent infants from putting the body plug into their mouth. 
This may result in electric shock or injury. 
 
Do not place small metal parts near the body plug. 
This may result in electric shock, electrical short circuit or fire. 
 
Make sure the power plug is correctly inserted into the wall outlet. 
If the plug is inserted improperly it may cause electric shock or generate heat resulting in fire. 
  Do not use a damaged plug or a connection in a loose outlet. 
 
Clean dust from the power plug or the body plug regularly. 
A build-up of dust on the plug will attract condensation, which could cause cable damage 
and the deterioration of insulation resulting in fire. 
  Remove the plugs and clean them with a dry cloth. 
 
Use a dedicated outlet that matches the power rating of the unit. 
Heat generated when plugging in multiple appliances into one outlet may result in fire.

During use
Do not immerse the unit in water or splash water over it. 
  Do not supply water directly from the tap or place the unit in a sink where the bottom 
  may get wet. 
  Do not turn the unit upside down when the bottom is wet. 
  It may cause a short circuit and may result in electric shock. If water overflows from the pot 
and it enters the electrical parts built into the main unit, it may cause a malfunction. 
 
Never disassemble, repair or modify the unit. 
Any attempt to do so may cause the unit to operate abnormally and may result in fire or injury. 
  If in need of repair (except for the replacement parts), please contact an authorized  
  Service Center. 
 
Do not use to store ice. 
Condensation will occur, creating a potential source of electric shock and malfunction.
