NutriChef 6-Quart Electric Dutch Oven

Belangrike voorsorgmaatreëls

Wanneer elektriese toestelle gebruik word, moet basiese veiligheidsmaatreëls altyd gevolg word om die risiko van brand, elektriese skok en beserings aan persone te verminder. Lees alle instruksies sorgvuldig deur voordat u die toestel gebruik.

• Moenie aan warm oppervlaktes raak nie. Gebruik handvatsels of knoppe.
• To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or the heating base in water or other liquid.
• Noukeurige toesig is nodig wanneer enige toestel deur of naby kinders gebruik word.
• Trek uit die stopcontact wanneer dit nie gebruik word nie en voor skoonmaak. Laat afkoel voor jy dele aan- of afhaal.
• Moenie enige toestel gebruik met 'n beskadigde koord of prop, of nadat die toestel wanfunksioneer of op enige manier beskadig is nie.
• Die gebruik van bykomstighede wat nie deur die toestelvervaardiger aanbeveel word nie, kan beserings veroorsaak.
• Moenie buite gebruik nie.
• Moenie dat koord oor die rand van tafel of toonbank hang, of aan warm oppervlaktes raak nie.
• Moenie op of naby 'n warm gas- of elektriese brander, of in 'n verhitte oond plaas nie.
• Uiterste versigtigheid moet gebruik word wanneer 'n toestel wat warm olie of ander warm vloeistowwe bevat, verskuif word.
• Koppel altyd eers die prop aan die toestel, en steek dan die koord in die muursok. Om te ontkoppel, draai enige beheer na "af" en verwyder dan die prop uit die muursok.
• Moenie die toestel vir ander as die bedoeling gebruik nie.
• The Dutch oven pot is oven safe, but the electric heating base is not.
