WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
07 The removable inner pot can be extremely heavy when
full of ingredients. Care should be taken when lifting the inner pot from
the multicooker base to avoid burn injuries.
• Extreme caution must be used when the inner pot contains hot food,
hot oil or other hot liquids.
• Do not move the appliance while it is in use and use extreme caution
when disposing of hot grease.
08 Overfilling may cause a risk of clogging the steam release pipe and
developing excess pressure.
• DO NOT fill over the Max PC Fill line as indicated on the inner pot.
• DO NOT fill the inner pot over the Half Fill line (as indicated on the inner
pot) when cooking foods that expand during cooking such as rice or
dried vegetables.
09 This appliance cooks under pressure. Any pressure in the
appliance can be hazardous. Allow the appliance to depressurise naturally
or release all excess pressure before opening. Inappropriate use may
result in burns, injury and/or property damage.
• Make sure the appliance is properly closed before operating. Refer to
Pressure control features: Pressure cooking lid.
• DO NOT cover or obstruct the steam release valve and/or float valve
with cloths or other objects.
• DO NOT attempt to open the appliance until it has depressurised and all
internal pressure has been released. Attempting to open the appliance
while it is still pressurised may lead to a sudden release of hot contents
and may cause burns or other injuries.
• DO NOT place your face, hands or exposed skin over the steam release
valve or float valve when the appliance is in operation or has residual
pressure.
• DO NOT lean over the appliance when removing the lid, as heat and
steam escape when the lid is removed.
• Turn the appliance off if steam escapes from the steam release valve
and/or float valve in a steady stream during Pre-heating or Cooking, for
longer than 3 minutes.
Read this manual carefully and completely and retain for future reference.
Failure to adhere to safety instructions may result in serious injury or damage.
