Important SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1.READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2.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.
3.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 portion of this unit. If hand blender falls into liquid, remove immediately. Do not reach into the liquid without unplugging the unit first.
4.This appliance should not be used by children. To avoid possible accidental injury, close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5.Avoid contact with moving parts.
6.During operation keep hands, hair and 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 Cuisinart Repair Center for examination, repair, or mechanical or electrical adjustment.
8.Remove detachable shaft from the blender before washing the blades or shaft.
9.Blades are SHARP. Handle carefully when removing, inserting or cleaning. Exercise the same care when removing, inserting the cutting blade or reversing disc for the food processor attachment.
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 cutting blade on base without first putting prep bowl properly in place.
12.Be certain the food processor attachment cover is securely locked in place before operating appliance. Do not attempt to remove cover until blade has stopped rotating.
