Risk of overheating and fire
Only ever operate the blender with the blender jug filled and never empty.
Do not use the appliance in direct sunlight or near heating appliances (heaters, stoves,
ovens etc.).
Do not place hot or boiling foods in the blender jug. Otherwise the motor unit could
overheat or the blender jug glass could crack. Always leave hot or boiling foods to cool
down first before adding them to the blender jug (3) and processing with the blender.
Injury
Never open the lid (2) while the blender is running. Otherwise, rotating bits of food may
be ejected with great force.
Never reach into the blender jug while the blender is running because the cutting blade
is extremely sharp and rotates quickly.
Never insert cutlery or other stirring implements into the blender jug while the blender is
running as the cutting blades rotate very quickly and may cause considerable damage
and injury.
Before you start
Unpack the device. First check whether all the parts are complete and undamaged. If any items are
missing or damaged, please phone our hotline (see "Guarantee Information" on page 21). Keep the
packaging material away from children and dispose of appropriately.
Getting started
The blender jug (3) should be cleaned before first use. For more on this, please refer to the "Maintenance
/ cleaning" section on page 17.
