BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST

Congratulations on your purchase of your new Breville Espresso/Cappuccino Maker. We at
Breville are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with the
safety of you, our valued customer, foremost in mind.

In addition, we ask that you exercise a degree of care when using any electrical appliance and
adhere to the following precautions:

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

• Do not immerse cord, plug or

Espresso/Cappuccino Maker body in
water or any other liquid.

• Always use the appliance on a dry, level

surface.

• Before use fully unwind the power cord.

• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of

a table or counter, touch hot surfaces, or
become knotted.

• Do not place this appliance on or near a

hot gas or electric burner, or where it
could touch a heated oven.

• Always turn the Selector Control to

‘STANDBY’, switch the power off at the
power outlet and then remove the plug
when the appliance is not being used and
before cleaning.

• The appliance is not intended for use by

young children or infirm persons without
supervision.

• Do not leave the appliance unattended

when in use. Young children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.

• This appliance is for household use only.

• Do not use this appliance for anything

other than its intended use. Do not use
outdoors.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles.

• Regularly inspect the supply cord, plug

and actual appliance for any damage. If
found damaged in anyway, immediately
cease use and return the entire appliance
to the nearest authorised Breville Service
Centre for examination, replacement or
repair.

• Any maintenance other than cleaning

should be performed at an authorised
Breville Service Centre.

• The installation of a residual current

device (safety switch) is recommended to
provide additional safety protection when
using electrical appliances. It is advisable
that a safety switch with a rated residual
operating current not exceeding 30mA be
installed in the electrical circuit supplying
the appliance. See your electrician for
professional advice.
