When using the Superchef, please follow these basic safety precautions.

1. Please read all instructions before using.

2. Make sure your electricity supply matches the voltage shown on the appliance.

3. This Superchef is for household use only. It is not suitable for commercial use, or for
use outdoors.

4. Using the Superchef with accessories not recommended by the manufacturer may
result in fire, electric shock or injury, and should be avoided.

5. Place the Superchef on a level, sturdy and dry surface.

6. Do not let the power cord hang over the edge of your table or worktop, where a child
could grab it or people could trip over it. The power cord must not become tangled
or touch any hot surfaces.

7. Use caution when opening the lid on the Superchef whilst in use as steam will be
emitted.

8. Care should be taken to ensure that the valve is fixed into the SuperChef properly. Do
not cover the valve situated on the cover of the machine and care should be taken
when removing the valve as it may be hot. When cooking using the following functions

- rice, pasta, boil and stew - turn the steam valve to the correct position. When
cooking using any of the other functions the steam valve must be open.

9. Do not place ingredients into the bowl unless it is in situ in the machine. Do not also
exceed the maximum capacity of the bowl.

10. Use only wooden, silicone or plastic tools with the Superchef. Metal tools may cause
damage to the non-stick coating.

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

12. To protect against electric shock, never immerse the Superchef, power cord or plug in
water or any other liquid. Do not let the power cord or plug get wet.

13. The Superchef is not intended for use by children or infirm people unless they have
been adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure they can use it safely.
Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the Superchef.

14. Do not use the Superchef if the power cord or plug show any signs of damage, or if
the appliance is dropped, damaged or working incorrectly. Call the helpline on 015394
88100 to arrange a repair or replacement. Never try to repair the Superchef yourself
as this may cause electric shock.
