Safety and important instructions
Read and follow the instruction manual carefully and keep for later reference! Enclose
these instructions when you give this appliance to someone else. If the instructions for
correct use of the appliance are not observed, the manufacturer’s liability for any resulting
damage will be excluded.
1. This mixer grinder is strictly for household use and not applicable for non-domestic and/
or commercial use.
2. Please only use official Bosch parts and accessories with the Mixer Grinder. Never use
these parts and accessories with any other appliances.
3. Check if the voltage indicated on the base of the mixer grinder corresponds to the local
electrical mains voltage before you connect the appliance.
4. This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or lack of experience and/or knowledge if they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe manner and if they understand
the hazards involved.

to use the appliance. Do not let children play with the appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance must not be performed by children.

customer service may repair the appliance, e.g. by replacing a damaged power cord, in
order to avoid hazards.
7. Do not use the mixer grinder on a wet surface.
8. Keep the mixer grinder away from hot gas burners, electric hot plates or similar appliances.
9. The power cord must not come into contact with hot parts or be pulled across sharp edges.
10. Always ensure that speed selector knob is in the OFF position and the appliance
unplugged before you remove or attach jars or accessories.
11. Blades should be fitted properly before running the mixer grinder.
12. Do not operate the mixer grinder without locking the dome or lid in place or with an empty jar.

20. In dry grinding, the jar may become hot due to friction. This is quite normal and has
nothing to do with the motor. The jar will cool down with time. If the motor is getting too
hot and you can feel hot air coming out of the side vent or bottom, switch off the mixer
grinder and restart after 10 minutes.

dishwasher.
