In addition, we offer the
following safety advice.
Location
• Always locate your
appliance away from the
edge of the worktop.
• Ensure that the appliance is
used on a firm, flat, heat
resistant surface.

is left above and around all
sides of your appliance to
allow air to circulate.

outdoors or near water.
