Do not use the appliance if the non-stick coating is damaged in any way (e.g. scratched, or
peeling off). Do not operate the appliance, when liquids are in the oven com-
partment or accumulate under the appliance or overflow. Do not operate the

electric shock or any other damage and/or injuries to persons. The appliance is likely to be
damaged if the appliance was subject to inadmissible strain (e.g. overheating, mechanical

tions, or if the appliance is leaking or not working properly. In this case, immediately unplug
the appliance and return the entire appliance (including all parts and accessories) to an

each side and 1 m above to furniture, walls, boards, curtains, and other objects. Do not

appliance on a well accessible, stable, level, dry, heat-resistant, water-resistant and suitable
large table or counter. Do not place the appliance over a power cord, or near the edge of
the table or counter, or on wet or inclined surfaces, or where it can fall. Always keep the
appliance and the table or counter clean and dry, and wipe off spilled liquids immediately.
• Do not place any clothes or tissue or other objects under or on the appliance during ope-
ration, to avoid risk of fire, electric shock and overheating. Before operation, always ensure
that there are no foreign objects in or under the pot, and the appliance is assembled proper-
ly and not leaking with the lid and upper cover firmly in place. Solely use the appliance for
processing edible food. Immediately unplug the appliance, if there is any kind of malfunction
or problem (e.g. leaking, overheating).

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they

the appliance or any parts of the appliance or the packaging. Do not leave the appliance
unattended, when it is in reach of young children. Always keep the appliance where it is dry
