Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR ALL ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
Sunbeam are very safety conscious when designing and manufacturing consumer products,
but it is essential that the product user also exercises care when using an electrical appliance.
Listed below are precautions which are essential for the safe use of an electrical appliance:
• Read carefully and save all the instructions
provided with an appliance.
• Always turn the power off at the power outlet
before you insert or remove a plug. Remove
by grasping the plug – do not pull on the
cord.
• Turn the power off and remove the plug
before cleaning.
• Do not use your appliance with an extension
cord unless this cord has been checked
and tested by a qualified technician or
service person.
• Always use your appliance from a power
outlet of the voltage (A.C. only) marked
on the appliance.
• This appliance is not intended for use by
young children or infirm persons unless
they have been adequately supervised by a
responsible adult to ensure that they can use
the appliance safely.
• Never leave an appliance unattended while
in use.
• Young children should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
• Do not use an appliance for any purpose
other than its intended use.
• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot
gas flame, electric element or on a heated
oven. Do not place on top of any other
appliance.
• Do not let the power cord of an appliance
hang over the edge of a table or bench top
or touch any hot surface.
• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance
by unskilled persons, some appliances are
‘sealed’ using tamperproof screws. Such
appliances should always be returned to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for adjustment or repair if required.
• Do not operate any electrical appliance with
a damaged cord or after the appliance has
been dropped or damaged in any manner. If
damage is suspected, return the appliance
to the nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service
Centre
for examination, repair or adjustment.
• For additional protection, Sunbeam
recommend the use of a residual current
device (RCD) with a tripping current not
exceeding 30mA in the electrical circuit
supplying power to your appliances.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid unless recommended.
