Multicooker trips household circuit breaker or RCD when plugged in or when heating starts.

Safety first: Do not repeatedly reset the breaker. Unplug the cooker immediately. Risk of electric shock and fire.

• Dry the unit: If liquid was spilled into the cooker, leave it unplugged and open for at least 48 hours in a warm, dry place.
• Inspect cord: Check the power cord for cuts or crushed sections. Replace if damaged.
• Check heater insulation: With the bottom cover removed and the unit completely dry, measure resistance between each heater terminal and the metal chassis. Any low resistance (below several megaohms) indicates a leakage or short; replace the heating element.

If you are not trained to work with mains circuits, have a qualified technician perform these tests.
