General Safety Instructions
Electrical safety and cord handling
• Electrical specifications: Ensure your outlet voltage and circuit frequency
correspond to the voltage stated on the appliance rating label. Your wall outlet
should be properly earthed and the appliance operated on a separate circuit.
• Connection: Prior to connecting or disconnecting the plug from wall outlet, turn
any control to the OFF or STANDBY position.
• WARNING: Do not immerse! To protect against fire and electric shock, do not
immerse the cord, plug or the appliance itself in water or other liquid, or expose
any of the electrical connections to water. If the appliance falls or accidentally
becomes immersed in water or any other liquid, unplug it immediately. Do
not reach into the water! Do not use this appliance after it has fallen into or
has become immersed in water. Contact our after sales support centre for
examination and repair.
• Short cord: A short cord reduces the risks resulting from becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord. If an extension cord must be used, exercise
care and ensure its electrical rating is at least as great as that of the appliance.
• Protect the cord: Do not kink, bend, squash or damage the power cord and
protect it from sharp edges and heat. Do not let it touch hot surfaces, including
the machine’s hot surfaces. Make sure the cord does not hang over the edge of
a table or benchtop and nothing is placed on top of the cord.
• No timer: Do not use the appliance with an external timer or a separate remote
control system.
• Damage: Do not pick up or operate the appliance if the power supply cord or
plug is damaged. A damaged cord or plug must be replaced by appropriately
qualified personnel in order to avoid a hazard.
• Malfunction during use: If this appliance begins to malfunction during
use, press the POWER button and turn the function control to STANDBY.
Then immediately unplug the cord. Do not use or attempt to repair the
malfunctioning appliance. Contact our after sales support centre.
