Safety Notices
ƽ
To avoid the risk of a potentially
fatal electric shock:
• Ensure that the motor block, the power cable and
the power plug are never submersed in water or
other fluids.
• Only use the appliance in dry rooms, never use
it outdoors or in moist environments.
• Make sure that the power cable never becomes
wet or damp during operation. Lay the cable
such that it does not get clamped or otherwise
damaged.
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables
to be replaced at once by qualified technicians
or our Customer Service Department.
• Always remove the plug from the power socket
after use. Switching off the appliance is not suffi-
cient because the appliance receives power as
long as the power plug is connected to the socket.
• Check to ensure that the appliance is in a service-
able condition before taking it into use. The ap-
pliance may not be used if there is recognisable
damage on it, especially to the motor block and
the glass mixing jug.
• Immediately remove the plug from the socket
should you hear or smell anything unexpected
from the appliance when it is in use or there is
an evident malfunction.
ƽ
To avoid overheating and the
risk of fire:
• Do not use the appliance in locations with direct
sunlight or in the vicinity of heat generating ap-
pliances.
• NEVER fill the mixing jug with boiling fluids or ot-
her foods!
Allow these to cool to a handwarm temperature.
Otherwise, the appliance could overheat and/
or the glass of the mixing jug could crack!
• NEVER operate the appliance when it is empty,
i.e. without ingredients in the mixing attachment.
ƽ
To reduce the risk of fire or injury:
• NEVER insert your hand or fingers in the mixing
jug, especially when it is in use. The cutters are
extremely sharp!
• DO NOT open the cover when the appliance is
in operation. Should you do so, pieces of the
foodstuff could be thrown out at high speeds!
• Do not insert cutlery items or mixing tools into
the mixing jug when the appliance is in use.
There is a considerable risk of injury should these
make contact with the swiftly rotating cutters!
• In order to be able to react immediately in the
event of danger, always have the appliance
under supervision when it is in use.

duals (including children) with restricted physical,
