When using electrical appliances, basic safety precaution must always be
followed:
1. Carefully read all instructions before operating and retain for future
reference.
2. This appliance is for normal household use only.
3. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
4. Young children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
5. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced before further use. This

qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
6. This appliance includes a safety switch which prevents operation unless the
accessories are securely installed.
7. This appliance incorporates a protective device against high temperatures.
If the temperature becomes too high, the unit will turn off automatically

machine is not diminished.
