2. Safety Information
Please read all safety instructions carefully before using the appliance to prevent accidents and ensure safe operation.
Important Safety Devices:
- Water Tray: The water tray collects oil drippings, preventing them from directly contacting the flame. This significantly reduces the risk of fire and oil splatters. When adding water, pour slowly to avoid spills. If refilling water during cooking, always extinguish the flame first and exercise extreme caution to prevent burns.
- Pressure Sensing Safety Device: This device automatically shuts off the gas supply if the internal pressure of the gas cylinder rises abnormally, ensuring user safety.
- Cylinder Attachment Safety Device: Ensures the gas cylinder is correctly attached before operation.
This product is certified with the PSLPG Mark. The notifying business name is IRIS OHYAMA Inc., and the registered inspection body is the Japan Gas and Oil Appliance Industry Association Registered Product.
