vice centre for examination and/or repair. The glass containers of the
optional accessories (mixing jug, mincing jug, and grinding cup) are
fragile. Do not expose the glass containers to extreme temperature
variations or excessive mechanical strain. Do not place the glass
containers on hot surfaces (e.g. oven or stove). Do not pour hot
liquids into the glass containers. Ensure that the glass containers
will not be chipped or fall or roll down from the table or counter.
To avoid severe injuries due to splinters or shards and damage
caused by leakage, do not use a glass container any more, when
it is damaged in any way (e.g. cracks, chipped edges) or has been
subject to inadmissible strain (e.g. mechanical shock, extreme tem-
perature variation).
• Always grasp the appliance at the motor base for moving it. Do not
hold the appliance at the locking arm, drive rotor, power cord, or
mounted processing system (juicing system or optional accessory) for
moving the appliance. The locking arm is part of the safety inter-
locks of the appliance and NOT intended as a handle for moving
the appliance. Do not place any hard and/or heavy objects on or
in the appliance or any part of it. Take care that no one will pull the
appliance by the power cord.
• Operate the appliance on a well accessible, stable, level, clean, dry,
and suitable large table or counter that is resistant against fat and
water. Always wipe off spilled liquids immediately.
• Always keep the appliance and its parts in sufficient distance to the
edge of the table or counter and to other objects. Due to vibrations,
the appliance could move around during operation. Thus, close
supervision is necessary during operation! For operation, leave at
least 1m of free space above the motor base and at least 30cm of
free space on each side, to avoid damage due to splashes and ena-
ble unhindered handling.
• Do not place any clothes or tissue or other foreign objects under or
on the appliance during operation, to avoid risk of fire, electric shock
and overheating. The ventilation slits in the bottom of the motor base
may not be blocked. For operation, do not place the appliance over
a power cord or on metal surfaces (e.g. sink or drain board).
