Important safeguards

Read all instructions

•Carefully read all instructions before operating the appliance for the first time and save for future reference.

•Remove and safely discard any packaging materials and promotional labels before using the appliance for the first time.

•To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, remove and safely discard the protective cover fitted to the power plug of this appliance.

•To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse the power cord, power plug or motor body in water or any other liquid.

•Do not place the appliance on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or where it could touch any other source of heat.

•Unwind the power cord fully before use.

•Do not allow the power cord to hang over the edge of a table or counter, touch hot surfaces or become knotted.

•Always make sure the appliance is completely and properly assembled before operation.

•Always ensure that the attachments are securely fitted onto the motor body before operation. Follow the instructions provided in this book.

•Handle the appliance and attachments with care – blending blade and chopping bowl blade are very sharp. Handle carefully and keep out of reach of children.

•To reduce the risk of injury, always insert the chopping blade into the chopping bowl, then ensure the lid is securely attached before connecting to the motor body and operating.

•Never process ICE, frozen foods, or other hard foods such as coffee beans, cereal, or chocolate bars in the chopping bowl as damage to the blades may result.

•Do not use attachments other than those provided with the appliance. The use of attachments not sold or recommended by Breville may cause fire, electric shock or injury.

•Always ensure the appliance is unplugged from the power outlet before attempting to assemble any of the attachments.

•If using the appliance to blend hot food in a saucepan, remove the saucepan from the heat source and ensure the liquid is not boiling. Allow hot food to cool slightly before blending. The appliance should be kept away from any heat source.

•Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance or container filled with hot oil or other hot liquids.

•Do not touch surfaces that may be hot. Use handles or knobs provided.

•When mixing liquids, especially hot liquids, use a tall container or make small quantities at a time to reduce spillage.

•Keep hands and utensils away from the moving blending blade and chopping bowl blade while blending/chopping to prevent the possibility of severe injury to persons or damage to the appliance. A spatula may be used, but must be used only when the appliance is not running.

•If food becomes lodged around the blending blade or in the blade guard, release the trigger switch, unplug the power cord and remove the blending shaft from the motor body. Use a spatula to dislodge the food. Do not use fingers as blending blade is sharp.
