IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, especially when children are
present, basic safety precautions should always be taken, including
the following:
1.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2.
Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning. To unplug, grasp plug
and pull from electrical outlet. Never pull cord.
3. To protect against electric shock, do not put the motor body, cord
or electrical plug of this hand blender in water or other liquids. Only
the detachable blending shaft and other certain parts of this
appliance have been designed for immersion into water or other
liquids. Never submerge any other portion of this unit. If hand
blender falls into liquid, remove immediately.
Do not reach into the liquid without unplugging the unit first.
4. This appliance should not be used by children. To avoid
possible accidental injury, close supervision is necessary when any
appliance is used by or near children or individuals with
certain disabilities.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. During operation, keep hands, hair and clothing, as well as
spatulas and other utensils, away from attachments and any
mixing container to reduce risk of injury to persons and/or damage
to the appliance. A spatula may be used, but must be used only
when the unit is not operating.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug,
or after the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped
or damaged in any way or is not operating properly. Return the
appliance to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Centre for examination,
repair, or mechanical or electrical adjustment.
8. Remove detachable shaft from the motor body before washing the
blades or shaft.
9.
Blades are SHARP. Handle carefully when removing, inserting
or cleaning. Exercise the same care when removing or
inserting the cutting blade, or reversing disc for the food
processor attachment.
10. When mixing liquids, especially hot liquids, use a tall container
or mix small quantities at a time to reduce spillage, splattering
and the possibility of injury from burning.
11. To reduce the risk of injury, never place chopper/grinder
attachment cutting blade on base without first putting work bowl
properly in place.
12. Be certain the food processor attachment cover is securely locked
in place before operating appliance. Do not attempt to remove
cover until blade has stopped rotating.
