1.READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2.To protect against electrical shock, do not put the motor body, cord or electrical plug of this Hand Blender in water or other liquid. The drive shaft of this appliance, where blades are interchanged, has been designed for submersion in water or other liquids. Never submerge any other portion of this unit. If Hand Blender falls into liquid, remove immediately.

Do not reach into the liquid without unplugging the unit first.

3.This appliance should not be used by children. To avoid possible acciden- tal injury, close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

6.During operation keep hands, hair, clothing, as well as spatulas and other utensils away from attachments and any mixing container to reduce risk of injury to persons, and/or damage to the appliance. A spatula may be used, but must be used only when the unit is not operating.

7.Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or damaged in any way or is not operating properly. Return the appliance to the nearest

8.Remove detachable shaft from the blender before washing the blades or shaft.

9.Blades are SHARP. Handle carefully when removing, inserting or cleaning.

10.When mixing liquids, especially hot liquids, use a tall container or make small quantities at a time to reduce spillage, splattering and possibility of injury from burning.

11.To reduce the risk of injury, never place chopper grinder attachment cut- ting blade on base without first putting prep bowl properly in place.

12.Be certain the chopper grinder attachment cover is securely locked in place before operating appliance. Do not attempt to remove cover until blade has stopped rotating.

17.Make sure the appliance is “off”, the motor has stopped completely, and the appliance is unplugged from outlet before putting on or taking off attachments, and before cleaning.

18.To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not operate any heating appliance beneath the mounting unit.

19.Do not mount the storage bracket/ unit over or near any portion of a heating or cooking appliance or a sink or basin.
