Important Safety Instructions - Morphy Richards 3-in-1 basket fryer Instructions Manual

Important safety
instructions
The use of any electrical appliance
requires the following common sense safety
rules.
Primarily there is danger of injury or
death and secondly the danger of damage
to the appliance. These are indicated in the
text by the following two conventions:
WARNING: Danger to the person!
IMPORTANT: Damage to the appliance! In
addition we offer the following safety advice.
Your safety
• Never attempt to move your fryer until
it is completely cool. This can take up
to three hours. Use the carrying area. Î
• To protect against the risk of electric
shock do not immerse in water or
other liquid.
• Unplug from the electrical outlet when
not in use and before cleaning. Allow to
cool before putting or taking off parts,
and before cleaning the appliance.
• Never leave the fryer unattended when
connected to the electricity supply.
• Never lean over the fryer when it is in
use.
• When opening the lid, stand back as
some hot steam may be released.
• Always use oven gloves when removing
or replacing lid during use.
• Be careful not to touch those surfaces of
the fryer which become hot when in use.
Product safety
• The fryer body or control pod Ì must
never be immersed in water.
• When unpacking the fryer, make sure
all packing material is removed.
• Never connect the fryer to the electricity
supply without oil in the tank.
• Never operate with the oil level below
minimum mark (2.0 litres) or above
maximum mark (2.6 litres).
Location
• Place the appliance on a horizontal, flat
and stable surface away from a heating
source and where it cannot be splashed
by water.
• Allow adequate air space above and on
all sides for air circulation.
• Do not use your fryer under cupboards
or shelves.
• Do not use outdoors.
Other safety considerations
• Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions or has been
damaged in any manner. Ring the
helpline number (the telephone number
can be found on the front cover) for
advice on examination and repair.
• Do not use the fryer for anything other
than its intended purpose.
• The use of attachments or tools not
recommended or sold by Morphy
Richards may cause fire, electric shock
or injury.
• Always dry food before frying eg. chips
which are too wet can cause the hot oil
to froth excessively.
• Never pour oil out of the fryer with the
bowl in position.
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.
Scalds
• Run cold water over the affected area
immediately. Do not stop to remove
clothing, seek medical help immediately.
