Crock-Pot's Safety Precautions
Crock-Pot is very safety conscious when
designing and manufacturing consumer
products, but it is essential that the product
user also exercise care when using an
electrical appliance. Listed below are
precautions which are essential for the safe
use of an electrical appliance:
• Read carefully and save all the instructions
provided with an appliance.
• Always turn the power off at the power outlet
before you insert or remove a plug. Remove by
grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.
• Turn the power off and remove the plug when
the appliance is not in use and before cleaning.
• Do not use your appliance with an extension
cord unless this cord has been checked and
tested by a qualified technician or service
person.
• Always use your appliance from a power
outlet of the voltage (A.C. only) marked on the
appliance.
• Never leave an appliance unattended while
in use.
• Do not use an appliance for any purpose other
than its intended use.
• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot gas
flame, electric element or on a heated oven.
• Do not place on top of any other appliance.
• Do not let the power cord of an appliance hang
over the edge of a table or bench top or touch
any hot surface.
• Do not operate any electrical appliance with
a damaged cord or after the appliance has
been damaged in any manner. If damage
is suspected, return the appliance to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre for
examination, repair or adjustment.
• The appliance should be supplied through a
residual current device (RCD) having a rated
residual operating current not exceeding 30
mA.
• The supply cord should be regularly examined
for signs of damage and the appliance is not to
be used if the cord is damaged.
• Do not cook more than 4 cups of dried
beans/legumes with 8 cups of water. Cooking
with more beans or water may result in the
build up of excess pressure. Leave for ten
minutes after cooking before releasing the
pressure valve.
• Be careful when lifting and removing lid after
cooking. Always tilt the lid away from you as
steam is hot and can result in serious burns.
Never place face over the unit.
• The pressure cooker operates under pressure.
Incorrect use may result in injury.
• Use handles and oven mitts to move the unit,
the cooking pan and the lid when hot.
• Unplug the unit when not in use and before
cleaning. Allow the unit to cool before putting
on or taking off parts to clean.
• Certain foods are not suited for pressure
cooking as they can foam, froth, splatter and
clog the pressure and steam release valve.
Noodles, macaroni, spaghetti, cranberry,
apple sauce, rhubarb, split peas, pearl barley,
oatmeal and other cereals should not be
cooked with pressure cook mode.
• Do not use the cooking pan for food storage or
place in the freezer.
• Do not operate the unit when placed directly
onto a bench top. Place a heat proof mat or
chopping board underneath to protect the
surface.

Ensure the above safety precautions are understood.
