Movable and sharp-edged units – risk of injury
• Always turn the appliance ´OFF`, wait for the motor to stop moving and then pull
the plug before taking the glass container off the motorblock or taking off the lid. It
could take about 3 seconds until the motor has completely stopped. Never leave
the appliance ´ON` when not in use.
• Never put your hands, wooden spoons or other foreign substance (such as hair,
cloth, brush, towels) into the glass container when the motor is running or the appliance
is connected to the power outlet. Always take the glass container off the motorblock
first before you push down the food with a spoon or add new ingredients.
• WARNING: The blade is very sharp. Pay attention when handling the units. Only touch
the sealing ring when handling the blade. Handle with care when cleaning. Only store the
appliance completely assembled. This way the blade will be out of reach.
• NOTE: Ensure the appliance is properly assembled and that the blade is properly
attached before putting the plug into the power outlet. Never turn the appliance on without
the lid or the refill lid. Never turn the appliance on without the glass container properly
placed on the motorblock. Never place only the holder or the blade only on the
motorblock. Never touch the drive gear when the plug is connected to the power outlet.
• Always keep one hand on the lid while processing. Using solid ingredients (such as
hard fruits or vegetable), overloading the glass container or processing with a slow
speed, the motor could stuck, stall or run very slow. In this case turn the appliance ´OFF`
to avoid overheating (see ´Trouble shooting`).
• WARNING: If the blade is mounted in the glass container, the container is positioned
on the motorblock, and the plug is connected to the power outlet, do not insert your fingers,
a wooden or plastic spoon or similar cooking utensils or foreign substances in the glass
container. Always take the glass container off the motorblock before pushing the food
down with a spoon.
• The appliance is designed for normal household quantities. Do not operate the
appliance in continuous operation for more than 10 minutes to avoid overheating.
If processing large quantities of food, regularly interrupt operation and unplug the
appliance for at least 1 minute, to let the motor cool down and avoid overheating.
• Do not chop extremely hard food, such as nuts with shell or bones because the
blade could stall or block. Do not overfill the glass container to avoid overrunning,
spurt out or that the motor stalls or stucks during operation.
