CAUTION
Thermomix TM 31 can move
Place your Thermomix TM 31 on a clean, solid
and even surface so that it cannot slip. Keep a
sufficient distance from the edge of this surface
to prevent Thermomix TM 31 from falling down.
When preparing dough or chopping food, an
imbalance can develop in the mixing bowl
which, under certain circumstances, may cause
the whole appliance to move. Do not, therefore,
leave the appliance unattended while it is opera-
ting as it might fall from the work surface.
