pads), or any corrosive chemicals (e.g. bleach) for cleaning. Do not
immerse the motor base or power cord in water or any other liquid.
Do not spill or drip any liquids on the motor base or on the power

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
The appliance is driven electrically. Place the appliance near a suitable
wall power socket to connect the appliance directly to a protected mains
power supply with protective conductor (earth/ground) connected pro-
perly. Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power supply corre-
sponds to the voltage requirements of the appliance (230/240 V AC,
50/60 Hz, rated for at least 10 A).
The installation of a residual current operated circuit breaker (r.c.c.b.)
with a maximum rated residual operating current of 30 mA in the supp-
lying electrical circuit is strongly recommended. If in doubt, contact your
electrician for further information.
In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are sub-
ject to incompatible norms. Therefore it is possible that power supplies in
foreign countries do not meet the requirements for safe operation of the
appliance. Thus, before operating the appliance abroad, ensure that safe
operation is possible.
• Do not to use any desk top multi socket outlet, external timer, remote
control systems or extension cord.
• Always handle power cords with care. The pins of the power plug
must be smooth and clean without discolourations. Always complete-
ly unwind the power cord before use. Do not place the appliance on
a power cord. Power cords may never be knotted, twisted, pulled,
strained or squeezed. Do not let the plug or power cord hang over
the edge of the table or counter. The power cord may not touch hot
surfaces, sharp edges, or any moving parts. Ensure that no one will
