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.
Location
• Always locate your toaster away from the
edge of the worktop.
• Ensure that the toaster is used on a firm,
flat, heat resistant surface.
• Ensure that sufficient space is left above
and around all sides of your toaster to
allow air to circulate.
• IMPORTANT: Do not use too close to
curtains, draperies, walls, cupboards and
other flammable materials.
• Do not use underneath cupboards.
• Do not use outdoors.
Mains lead
• The mains lead should reach from the
socket to the toaster without straining the
connections. Reduce the length of the
excess lead by using the cord storage
facility.
• Do not let the mains lead hang over the
edge of the worktop where a child could
reach it.
• Do not let the lead run across an open
space e.g. between a low socket and
table.
• Do not let the lead run across a cooker
or hot area which might damage the
cable.
