IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
. To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not put motor
base of PowerBlend Duet
™
appliance in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children. Cuisinart does not recommend the use of this
appliance by children.
4. Always unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning or removing contents from
blender jar or food processor work bowl.
WARNING: Never put hands into the blender jar/food
processor work bowl or container, or handle the blades
with appliance plugged in.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or
after the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in
any manner. Return appliance to nearest Cuisinart service
facility for examination, repair, and/or mechanical or electrical
adjustment.
7. The use of attachments, other than those recommended by
Cuisinart, including canning or ordinary jars not recommended
or sold by Cuisinart, may cause fire, electrical shock, or risk of
injury to persons.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of counter or table or touch hot
surfaces, which could damage the cord.
10.
Keep hands and utensils out of jar/food processor work
bowl during use, to reduce the risk of severe injury to
persons or damage to appliance itself.
A rubber or plastic
spatula may be used but must be used only when the appliance
is turned OFF.
11. When motor base is in ON mode, and LED lights are flashing or
glowing, do not touch cutting assembly, interfere with blade
movement or remove blender jar cover. Accidentally touching a
speed button may activate the blender.
12. BLADES ARE VERY SHARP. HANDLE CAREFULLY.
Store out of reach of children.
13. To reduce the risk of injury, never place chopping blade/cutting
assembly on base unless the blender jar or food processor
work bowl is properly attached.
14. Always operate blender or food processor with the cover in
place.
15. Never leave your blender or food processor unattended while it
is running.
16. When blending HOT liquids in blender jar, remove
measured pour lid (center piece of cover) to allow
steam to escape.
17. Twist on locking ring firmly. Injury can result if moving blades
accidentally become exposed.
18. Do not use an extension cord with this unit. Doing so may result
in fire, electrical shock, or personal injury.
19. Regarding your cord set: A longer cord has been provided so
that you will have flexibility in positioning your Cuisinart
®
PowerBlend Duet
™
near an electrical outlet. Exercise care when
using the longer cord to avoid entangling or tripping over the
cord. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the counter or tabletop, where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over. Excess cord should be stored in the
cord storage area at the back of the blender base, to avoid
injury caused by the longer cord.
0. Be certain the food processor cover is securely locked in place
before operating appliance. Never operate without the cover
locked securely in place.
21. Do not attempt to defeat the food processor cover
interlock mechanism.
. Never feed food into processor by hand. Always use the food
pusher.
3. Make sure the blade or disc has come to a full stop before
removing cover.
4. This food processor attachment is to be used only with
Cuisinart
®
BFP-10 series blenders. Do not use with any other
manufacturer’s blender base.
This appliance is intended for household use only.
