Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR SUNBEAM
ESPRESSO MACHINE.

• Always place the unit on a flat, level surface.

• Do not operate without water in reservoir.
Fill reservoir with only clean and cold water.
Observe maximum filling volume is 2.1 litres.

• Do not remove the filter handle during the
espresso pour or water flow as the unit is
under pressure. Removing the filter handle
during either of these operations can lead to a
scalding or injury.

• The steam wand becomes very hot during
texturing milk and water flow. This may cause

burns in case of contact, therefore avoid any
direct contact with the steam wand.

• Always disconnect the plug from the power
outlet prior to cleaning the espresso machine
or if there is any problem during the coffee
making process.

• Do not allow the power cord to come into
contact with the hot parts of the espresso
machine, including the cup warming plate and
steam wand.

• Do not place hands directly under the steam,
hot water or coffee pour as this can lead to a
scalding or injury.

Sunbeam are very safety conscious when

designing and manufacturing consumer products,
but it is essential that the product user also
exercise care when using an electrical appliance.
Listed below are precautions which are essential
for the safe use of an electrical appliance:

• Read carefully and save all the instructions
provided with an appliance.

• Always turn the power off at the power outlet
before you insert or remove a plug. Remove
by grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.

• Turn the power off and remove the plug
when the appliance is not in use and
before cleaning.

• Do not use your appliance with an extension
cord unless this cord has been checked
and tested by a qualified technician or
service person.

• Always use your appliance from a power
outlet of the voltage (A.C. only) marked
on the appliance.

• Close supervision is necessary when your
appliance is being used near children or
infirm persons.

• Never leave an appliance unattended while
in use.

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

• Do not use an appliance for any purpose
other than its intended use.

• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot gas
flame, electric element or on a heated oven.
Do not place on top of any other appliance.

• Do not let the power cord of an appliance hang
over the edge of a table or bench top or touch
any hot surface.

• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance
by unskilled persons, some appliances are
‘sealed’ using tamperproof screws. Such
appliances should always be returned to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for adjustment or repair if required.

• Do not operate any electrical appliance with a
damaged cord or after the appliance has been
dropped or damaged in any manner. If damage
is suspected, return the appliance to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for examination, repair or adjustment.

• For additional protection, Sunbeam
recommend the use of a residual current
device (RCD) with a tripping current not
exceeding 30mA in the electrical circuit
supplying power to your appliances.

• Do not immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid unless recommended.
