Important
• Read the instructions carefully in conjunction with the illustrations before using the
appliance.
• To avoid damage, check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the
mains voltage in your home (110-120V or 127V, or 220-230V or 240V) before you connect
the appliance.
• Never use any accessories or parts from other manufacturers or which have not been
specifically advised by Philips. Your guarantee will become invalid if such accessories or
parts have been used.
• Keep the appliance away from children.
• Never let the appliance run unattended.
• Never immerse the motor unit in water or any other fluid, nor rinse it under the tap. For
cleaning, only use a moist cloth.
• Never clean the accessories or the parts in a dishwasher.
• If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by Philips or their
service representative, as special tools and/or parts are required.
Blender
• Do not fill the blender jar with ingredients that are hotter than 80 °C.
• To avoid spillage, do not fill the jar above the maximum level indication (i.e. 1.0 litre).
When you are blending liquid, do not fill the jar higher than 0.5 litre. Always place the lid.
• Never remove the jar while the blender is operating.
• Never put your hand or any other object in the blender jar while the appliance is switched
on. If necessary, use a spatula to remove food from the wall of the jar after you have
switched the blender off.
• Always make sure that the lid is in “closed position” when processing ingredients.
Mill (only types HR 1701 and HR 1707)
• The cutting edges of the blade unit are very sharp: avoid touching them!
• Never let the mill accessory run for more than 30 seconds without interruption.
• Always make sure that the blade unit has been correctly placed before you start using the
appliance.
• Never put any liquid ingredients in the mill accessory.
• The mill accessory is not suitable for grinding very hard ingredients, such as nutmeg and
ice cubes.
• Always process cloves, star anise and aniseed together with other ingredients. If they are
processed separately, they may attack the plastic parts of the mill.
