When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons. This appliance incorporates 9 safety levels to control and limit temperature, pressure, and power, ensuring safe operation.
- ሁሉንም መመሪያዎች ያንብቡ.
- ትኩስ ቦታዎችን አይንኩ. እጀታዎችን ወይም ማዞሪያዎችን ይጠቀሙ.
- ከኤሌክትሪክ ንዝረት ለመከላከል ገመዱን፣ መሰኪያዎችን ወይም ዋናውን ክፍል በውሃ ወይም በሌላ ፈሳሽ ውስጥ አታጥመቁ።
- ማንኛውም መሳሪያ በልጆች ወይም በአቅራቢያው በሚውልበት ጊዜ የቅርብ ክትትል አስፈላጊ ነው.
- ጥቅም ላይ በማይውልበት ጊዜ እና ከማጽዳትዎ በፊት ከመውጫው ይንቀሉ. ክፍሎችን ከመልበስ ወይም ከማውጣቱ በፊት እንዲቀዘቅዝ ይፍቀዱ.
- በተበላሸ ገመድ ወይም መሰኪያ ወይም መሳሪያው ከተበላሸ በኋላ ወይም በማንኛውም መልኩ ከተበላሸ በኋላ ማንኛውንም መሳሪያ አይጠቀሙ።
- በመሳሪያው አምራቹ ያልተመከሩ ተጓዳኝ አባሪዎችን መጠቀም ጉዳት ሊያስከትል ይችላል።
- ከቤት ውጭ አይጠቀሙ.
- ገመዱ በጠረጴዛው ጠርዝ ወይም በጠረጴዛው ጠርዝ ላይ እንዲንጠለጠል አይፍቀዱ, ወይም ትኩስ ቦታዎችን አይንኩ.
- በጋለ ጋዝ ወይም በኤሌክትሪክ ማቃጠያ ላይ ወይም በሙቀት ምድጃ ውስጥ አታስቀምጡ.
- ትኩስ ዘይት ወይም ሌላ ትኩስ ፈሳሾችን የያዘ መሳሪያ ሲንቀሳቀስ ከፍተኛ ጥንቃቄ መደረግ አለበት።
- ሁል ጊዜ ሶኬቱን ከመሳሪያው ጋር አያይዘው ከዚያ ገመዱን በግድግዳው መውጫ ላይ ይሰኩት። ግንኙነቱን ለማቋረጥ ማንኛውንም መቆጣጠሪያ ወደ "ጠፍቷል" ያብሩ, ከዚያም ሶኬቱን ከግድግዳው መውጫ ያስወግዱ.
- መሳሪያን ከታቀደው ጥቅም ውጪ አይጠቀሙ.
- ይህ መሣሪያ በግፊት ግፊት ያበስላል። ተገቢ ያልሆነ አጠቃቀም የቆዳ መቅላት ጉዳት ሊያስከትል ይችላል። ሥራ ከመጀመሩ በፊት የተወሰነ ክፍል በትክክል እንዲዘጋ ያድርጉ።
- የግፊት ማብሰያውን በግድ በፍቱ። ከመክፈትዎ በፊት የውስጥ ግፊት ሙሉ በሙሉ መለቀቁን ያረጋግጡ።
- ክፍሉን ከ2/3 በላይ አይሞሉት። እንደ ሩዝ ወይም የደረቁ አትክልቶች ያሉ በምግብ ማብሰያ ጊዜ የሚስፋፋ ምግቦችን ሲያበስሉ ክፍሉን ከ 1/2 በላይ አይሞሉት.
- ከመጠቀምዎ በፊት የግፊት መልቀቂያ ቫልቭን እና የፍሎው ቫልቭን ሁልጊዜ ይፈትሹ።
