IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be taken,
including the following:

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning appliance.

3. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle.

4. To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons, DO NOT IMMERSE CORD,
PLUG OR BASE UNIT in water or other liquids.

5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance
has malfunctioned or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the
nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Chefman may result in fire,
electric shock or injury to persons.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let power cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Always put kettle on base, then plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, press the

ON/OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.

12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

13. Scalding may occur if the lid is opened during the heating cycle.

14. Ensure lid is securely closed before serving any beverages.

15. The kettle is designed for use with this appliance. It must never be used on a

range top. (Unless specific instructions for use on a range top are provided and

16. Do not set a hot container on a wet or cold surface.

17. Do not use a cracked container or a container having a loose or weakened handle.

18. Do not clean container with cleansers, steel wool pads, or other abrasive material.

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (cont'd)

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from
entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords
or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If
a longer detachable power-supply extension cord is used:

1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and:

2. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

3. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be grounding
type 3-wire cord.

LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS

1. Never pull or yank on cord or the appliance.

2. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.

3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.

4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any
are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord
replaced. Please return it to an authorized service representative.

5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue
stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.

DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR
IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.

This appliance must be grounded while in use.

CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to
properly grounded outlets only.

IMPORTANT

During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and/or a slight
odor. This is normal and should quickly disappear. It will not recur after appliance
has been used a few more times.

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.
