Breville recommends safety first
We at Breville are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with the safety of you,
our valued customer, foremost in mind. In addition, we ask that you exercise a degree of care when using any
electrical appliance and adhere to the following precautions:
Important safeguards for your Breville Ikon Blender
•
Carefully read all instructions before operation and
save for future reference.
•
Remove any packaging material and promotional
stickers before using the Breville Ikon Blender for
the first time.
•
Do not place the Breville Ikon Blender near the
edge of a bench or table during operation. Ensure
that the surface is level, clean and free of water,
flour, etc. Vibration during operation may cause the
appliance to move.
•
Do not place the Breville Ikon Blender on or near a
hot gas or electric burner, or where it could touch a
heated oven.
•
Always ensure the Breville Ikon Blender is properly
assembled before use. Refer to assembly and
operation (Page 9).
•
Use only the blender jug and lid supplied with the
Breville Ikon Blender.
•
Always ensure the blender lid is firmly positioned
on the blender jug before operating.
•
Always ensure the Breville Ikon Blender is turned
off by pressing the ‘Power’ button on the control
panel. Then switch the appliance off at the power
outlet and unplug the cord. Make sure the motor
and blades have completely stopped before
attempting to move the appliance, or when the
Breville Ikon Blender is not in use and before
disassembling, cleaning and storing.
•
Do not operate the appliance continuously with
heavy loads for more than 30 seconds. Allow the
motor to rest for 1 minute between each use.
None of the recipes in this instruction book are
considered a heavy load.
•
Do not leave the Breville Ikon Blender unattended
when in use.
•
If food becomes lodged around the blending blade,
turn the Breville Ikon Blender off by pressing the
“Power” button on the control panel. Then switch
the appliance off at the power outlet and unplug
the cord. Make sure the motor and blades have
completely stopped before removing the jug from
the motor base. Use a spatula to dislodge or stir
the food before continuing. Do not use fingers as
the blades are sharp.
•
Keep hands, fingers, hair, clothing, as well as
spatulas and other utensils away from the blender
jug during operation. Never place your fingers,
hands or utensils inside the blender jug without
unplugging the appliance from the power outlet.
•
Be careful when handling the blending blade
assembly as the blades are very sharp.
Mishandling of the blades may cause injury.
•
Do not remove the blender jug from the motor base
whilst in operation.
•
Do not use the Breville Ikon Blender for anything
other than food and/or beverage preparation.
•
Do not operate the Breville Ikon Blender without
food or liquid in the blender jug.
•
Do not process hot or boiling liquids. Allow to cool
before placing into the blender jug.
•
Do not subject the blender jug to extremes of hot
or cold, for example placing a cold jug in hot water
or vice versa.
•
Keep the appliance clean. Refer to care and
cleaning (Page 15).
•
Fully unwind the cord before use.
•
To protect against electric shock, do not immerse
the cord, plug or motor base in water or any
other liquid.
•
Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of
a table or counter, touch hot surfaces or
become knotted.
•
This appliance is not intended for use by young
children or infirm persons unless they have been
adequately supervised by a responsible person to

•
Young children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.

It is recommended to regularly inspect the
appliance. Do not use the appliance if the power
supply cord, plug or appliance becomes damaged
in any way. Return the entire appliance to the
nearest authorised Breville Service Centre for
examination and/or repair.

Any maintenance other than cleaning should be
performed at an authorised Breville Service Centre.
•
This appliance is for household use only. Do not
use this appliance for anything other than its
intended use. Do not use in moving vehicles or
boats. Do not use outdoors.
•
The installation of a residual current device (safety
