battery disposal
Sadly, nothing lasts forever, and the day will come when your appliance comes to the
end of its natural life. When this happens, don’t put the dead appliance out with your
normal household rubbish. It contains a nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery, which
must be removed from the appliance, and recycled, or disposed of in an
environmentally friendly way.
Your local authority will have arrangements for recycling or disposing of the battery.
To remove the battery:
a) remove the screw in the base, next to the hole for the LV plug
b) remove the screw buried in the hole at the top of the handle
c) split the mixer along the seams that run up the back and front of the handle
d) pull the connectors off the battery terminals.
e) dispose of the battery and appliance separately
f) don’t put either in your wheelie bin.
We are required, for the moment, to add the following to our instructions:

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by
