In the unlikely event of any appliance

If the fault develops after 28 days and

If for any reason this item is replaced

Important safety
instructions

The use of any electrical appliance
requires following common sense safety
rules.

Primarily there is danger of personal
injury and secondly danger of damage to the
appliance and property. These are indicated
in the instructions text by the following two
conventions:

WARNING: Danger of personal injury

IMPORTANT: Damage to the appliance

In addition we offer the following essential
safety advice.

Your safety

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use oven

gloves or a cloth when removing lid or

handling hot containers as hot steam will

escape.

• To protect against fire, electric shock and

personal injury do not immerse cord,

plugs, or appliance in water or other

liquid.

• Unplug from the socket when not in use,

before putting on or taking off

attachments, and before cleaning.

• Do not operate any appliance with a

damaged lead or plug, or after an

appliance has malfunctioned, or has

been dropped or damaged in any way.

Contact Morphy Richards for advice on

examination, repair, or electrical or

mechanical adjustment.

• Always use heat resistant gloves to

remove the inner bowl and lid from the

cooker.

Location

• Ensure that this appliance is situated out

of the reach of children.

• Do not place directly under kitchen wall

cupboards when in use as it produces

large amounts of steam. Avoid reaching

over the steamer when in use.

• Do not use outdoors.

Mains lead

• The mains lead should reach from the
socket to the base unit without straining
the connections.

• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of
the table or the counter and keep it away
from any hot surfaces.

• Do not let the lead run across an open
space e.g. between a low socket and
table.

Children

Never allow a child to operate this

appliance. Teach children to be aware of
dangers in the kitchen, warn them of the
dangers of reaching up to areas where they
cannot see properly or should not be
reaching.

Other safety considerations

• The use of attachments or tools not
recommended by Morphy Richards may
cause fire, electric shock or injury.

• Extreme caution must be used when
moving the cooker when it contains hot
food, water, or other hot liquids.

• To open, lift the lid off towards yourself
but tilted away from you.

• Do not use any parts of this product in a
microwave or on any cooking/heated
surfaces.

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

• Do not wash rice in the pot as it may
deform and will affect the cooking
process.

• Never use the cooker to boil acid or
alkaline foodstuff. Do not leave it in a
damp or corrosive environment.

• Do not reheat cooked rice in the cooker.

• The use of sharp implements inside the
bowl may damage the non-stick coating.
