Important safeguards
•
Read all instructions.
•
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.
•
The mains lead should reach from
the socket to the toaster without
straining the connections. Reduce
the length of 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 other hot area which
might damage the cable.
•
Do watch your toaster during use.
•
WARNING: Do not touch the top
of the toaster or other hot parts
during or after use - use
handles or knobs.
•
WARNING: Do not insert
oversize foods, metal foil
packages or utensils into the
toaster.
•
WARNING: Do not attempt to
dislodge food when toaster is
plugged in and never insert
cooking utensils into slots.
•
IMPORTANT: Do not place bread or
other items on top of the slots as
this may damage your toaster and
creates a fire hazard.
