  Sunbeam 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.

•  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. 

•  Children should be supervised to ensure that they 

do not play with the appliance.

•  The temperature of accessible surfaces may be 

high when the appliance is operating.

•  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. 

•  For additional protection, Sunbeam recommend 

the use of a residual current device (RCD) 
with a tripping current not exceeding 30mA in 
the electrical circuit supplying power to your 
appliances.

•  Do not immerse the appliance in water or any 

other liquid unless recommended.

•  Appliances are not intended to be operated 

 

by means of an external timer or separate remote 
control system.
