• Always keep the entire appliance dry and clean and where young children cannot
reach it. Do not place any hard and/or heavy objects on the appliance or any part of it.
Take care that no one will pull the appliance by the power cord.
• Do not leave any cooking utensils in the glass jar. Do not use any hard, sharp
or edged objects (e.g. knives, forks) with the appliance. Only use wooden
or heat-resistant plastic cooking utensils to stir and serve the food. Do not handle the
appliance or any part of it with violence. Do not hold your hands or any foreign
objects (e.g. cooking utensils, clothes) in the glass jar, while the glass jar
is mounted on the motor base!
• The appliance or power cord may never touch hot surfaces. Do not place
the appliance or any part of it on or near hot surfaces (i.e. burner, heater or oven). Do
not use any part of the appliance (e.g. glass jar, measuring cup) with any other device
(e.g. range, mixer). After using the heater function the glass jar and the bottom of
the jar collar will be still hot for some minutes. Do not touch the glass jar
and the bottom of the jar collar, or place the glass jar on any heat-sensi-
tive surface.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended, when connected to the power
supply. Do not move or tilt the appliance with the glass jar mounted on the motor base
to avoid that the glass jar will fall or hot liquid will be spilled. Always switch Off, unplug
and let the appliance cool down sufficiently when the appliance is not in use and before
moving, cleaning, or for storage. Before moving or cleaning the appliance, always allow
the appliance to cool down. Always grasp the motor base with both hands by the upper
handles and the glass jar by its handle for moving or lifting. During operation and
immediately after switching off only touch the appliance and its accesso-
ries by the handles and operating elements. Handle the processing blades with
care, as they are very sharp.
• Even with the lid properly closed, steam will escape around the measuring cup, when
preparing hot dishes. Do not hold your face, hands and arms over the lid during operati-
on and some minutes after heating to avoid scalds.
Do not overfill the glass jar, especially when heating foodstuffs that could violently
froth or splash. Otherwise food could splash and overflow or drip on the motor housing
and cause severe scalds and damage. Always observe the maximum level
indicator (“Soup” for hot dishes; “Cold” for cold meals and drinks)!
• Before activating the heating function, always ensure that there is a sufficient amount
of liquid or fat (at least 30 ml) in the glass jar and the glass jar is mounted correctly. DO
NOT activate the heater function when the glass jar is empty! Before opera-
ting the Blender function, additionally ensure that the lid is closed properly with the mea-
suring cup correctly in place. (See: „Operation“) Do not blend for longer than 3 minutes
to avoid overheating.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning pads (e.g. metal scouring pads) for cleaning.
Do not immerse the motor base or power cord in water or any other liquid. Do not spill or
drip any liquids on the motor base or power cord to avoid risk of fire and electric shock.
When liquids are spilled in the motor base, immediately switch Off, unplug and wait for
the appliance to cool down. Thereafter, clean the appliance thoroughly. (See: „Care and
Cleaning“)
• DO NOT place the motor base in an automatic dishwasher.
