INTRODUCTION
To get the best out of your new hand mixer,
please read through these instructions
carefully before using it for the first time. We
also recommend that you keep the
instructions for future reference, so that you
can remind yourself of the functions of the
hand mixer.
SAFETY MEASURES
• Incorrect use of the hand mixer may
cause personal injury and damage to the
hand mixer.
• Use the hand mixer for its intended
purpose only. The manufacturer is not
responsible for any damage resulting
from incorrect use or handling (see also
Guarantee Terms).
• The hand mixer may only be connected
to 230 V, 50 Hz.
• The hand mixer or the cord must not be
placed in water or any other liquid. If you
drop the hand mixer in water by accident,
or it gets wet in any other way, you must
immediately remove the plug from the
socket and get an authorised repair
engineer to examine the hand mixer
before you use it again. It is extremely
important that you follow these
instructions, as water in the hand mixer
could give rise to fatal electric shocks.
• Never try to open the cabinet yourself
and never force objects into it.
• Do not use the hand mixer when your
hands are wet, when the floor is wet or
when the hand mixer itself is wet. Never
touch the plug with wet or damp hands.
• Check regularly that the cord and plug
are not damaged and do not use the
hand mixer if this is the case, or if the
hand mixer has been dropped or
damaged in any other way. If the hand
mixer, cord or plug is damaged, the hand
mixer must be inspected and, if
necessary, repaired by an authorised
repair engineer, otherwise there is a risk
of electric shock. Never try to repair the
hand mixer yourself.
• Do not allow the cord to hang over the
edge of the counter, and keep it away
from hot objects and naked flames. Avoid
pulling the cord when removing the plug
from the socket. Instead, hold the plug.
Check that it is not possible to pull or trip
over the hand mixer cable or any
extension cord.
• This hand mixer is not suitable for
commercial or outdoor use.
• Never leave the hand mixer unattended
when in use and keep an eye on children.
The plug should always be removed from
the socket after use or when cleaning.
• Always keep the hand mixer out of the
reach of children.
• Never lift the hand mixer by its upper
section, and never change the mixing or
whisking tools while the hand mixer is
running. Only use the accessories that
accompany the hand mixer, otherwise
the guarantee will become void. The
hand mixer must not be switched on
unless there is something to mix or whisk
in it.
• The bowl must be secured in the correct
position before switching on the hand
mixer. The bowl must never be removed
while the hand mixer is running.
• If you touch the bowl with a spatula or
similar utensil while the hand mixer is
running, make sure that your fingers and
the spatula do not touch the mixing or
whisking tools.
• Do not leave the hand mixer running for
more than 5 minutes at a time. Switch the
hand mixer off after 5 minutes of
constant use and allow it to cool for a few
minutes before using it again.
