Do not operate Pressure Cooker with a damaged cord or plug or after it malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. In such cases, contact Chefman Customer Support. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Chefman may cause injuries.
Before each use, inspect the power cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced, and the power cord replaced. Please contact Chefman Customer Support for assistance. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.
