IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and/or injury to persons,
including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully when removing, inserting or
cleaning. Exercise the same care when removing, inserting the
chopping blade or disc for the food processor and chopper
accessories. Always verify that the accessory enclosure is free of
cracks or other damages.
2. The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instructions
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
3. Remove any packaging materials and promotional labels before using the
appliance for the first time.
4. 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.
5. To protect against electrical 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 part of this unit. If hand blender falls into liquid, unplug first, then
remove immediately. Do not reach into the liquid without unplugging the
unit first.
6. The use of attachments/accessories not sold or recommended by Braun
may cause fire, electrical shock or risk of injuries to persons.
7. Regularly inspect the power cord, power plug and actual appliance for
any damage. Do not operate if damaged in any way or after the appliance
malfunctions. Immediately cease use of the appliance and call Braun
Customer Service for examination, repair or adjustment.
8. Avoid any contact with blades or moveable parts.
9. Do not use outdoors or for anything other than its intended purpose.
10. Keep hands and utensils out of the container while blending to prevent
the possibility of severe injury to persons or damage to the unit. A scraper
may be used, but must be used only when the unit is not running.
