electricity supply which must be
A.C. (Alternating current).
If the socket outlets in your home
are not suitable for the plug
supplied with this appliance, the
plug should be removed and the
appropriate one fitted.
WARNING: The plug removed
from the mains lead, if
severed, must be destroyed,

plug require changing, a 3 amp
BS1362 fuse must be fitted.
WARNING: This appliance
must be earthed.

cooking with this product. This
gives you an average of 5
1/2 -7 1/2

However, if you wish to extend
the cooking period, can use the
LOW setting, and if you wish to
shorten the cooking period, you
can use the HIGH setting.
