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.
Personal 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.
• This appliance is not intended
for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of
the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.

• 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.
• Children are vulnerable in the
kitchen, particularly when
unsupervised and if appliances
are being used or cooking is
being carried out.
• 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.
• Children should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
Other safety
considerations

Richards may cause fire,

when moving the cooker when
it contains hot food, water, or
other hot liquids.

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.
• The use of sharp implements
inside the bowl may damage
the non-stick coating.
ELECTRICAL
REQUIREMENTS
Check that the voltage on the
rating plate of your appliance
corresponds with your house
electricity supply which must be
A.C. (Alternating current).
If the socket outlets in your
home are not suitable for the
plug supplied with this
appliance, the plug should be
removed and the appropriate
one fitted.
WARNING: The plug
removed from the mains
lead, if severed, must be
destroyed, as a plug with a
bared flexible cord is
hazardous if engaged into a
live socket outlet.
Should the fuse in the 13 amp
plug require changing, a 13 amp
BS1362 fuse must be fitted.
WARNING: This appliance
must be earthed.
