When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should
always be followed including the following:
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 detachable blending shaft of this appliance has 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Avoid contacting with moving parts.
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 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
or reversing the cutting blade for the chopper 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 chopper/grinder attachment cover is securely
locked in place before operating appliance. Do not attempt to
remove cover until blade has stopped rotating.
13. Check prep bowl for presence of foreign objects before using.
14. The use of attachments or accessories not recommended by
Cuisinart may cause fire, electrical shock, or risk of injury.
