Important safety instructions

The use of any electrical appliance requires the following of basic common sense safety rules.

There is danger of personal injury and the danger of damage to property and the appliance.

Please read the following essential safety advice.

Your safety

•Never attempt to move your fryer until it is completely cool. This can take up to three hours. Use the handles at the sides.

•To protect against electric shock do not immerse in water or other liquid.

•Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

•Never leave the fryer unattended when connected to the electricity supply.

•Never lean over the fryer when in use.

•When opening the lid, stand back as some hot steam may be released.

•Always use oven gloves when removing or replacing lid during use.

•Be careful not to touch those surfaces of the fryer which become hot when in use.

Product safety

•The fryer body must never be immersed in water.

•When unpacking the fryer, make sure all white foam packing material is removed. This can be found under the fryer and under the removable bowl.

•Never connect the fryer to the electricity supply without oil in the tank.

•Never operate with oil level below the minimum mark (1.9 litres) or above the maximum mark (2.3 litres).

Location

•Place the appliance on a horizontal, flat and stable surface away from any heating source and where it cannot be splashed by water.

•Allow adequate air space above and on

all sides for air circulation.

•Do not use your fryer under cupboards or shelves.

•Do not use outdoors.

Other safety considerations

•Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner.

Telephone Morphy Richards for advice.

•The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may cause injuries.

•Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

•Always dry food before frying eg. chips which are too wet can cause the hot oil to froth excessively.

•Never pour oil out of the fryer with the bowl in position.

Mains lead

•The mains lead should reach from the socket to the base unit without straining the connections. Reduce the length of the lead by storing the excess in the cord storage cavity.

•Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or the counter and keep it away from any hot surfaces.

•Do not let the lead run across an open space e.g. between a low socket and table.

Treating burns

Run cold water over the affected area immediately. Do not stop to remove clothing, get medical help quickly.
