• Do not place the appliance too close to the edge of the table or countertop as the
appliance might be knocked off.

• Extreme caution should be used if a longer cord needs to be used. Make sure it is
positioned safely so that nobody trips over it unintentionally.

• The heating base and the other parts might become very hot. Be sure to use the
handles and wear protective oven mitts or gloves.
