Cuisinart FPB-5 - Manual (Page 2)

IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance,
basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING.
2. To protect against the risk of
electrical shock, do not put motor
base of SmartPower Duet
®
appliance in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary
when any appliance is used by
or near children. Cuisinart does
not recommend the use of this
appliance by children.
4. Always unplug from outlet when
not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning
or removing contents from blender
jar or food processor work bowl.
WARNING: Never put hands into
the blender jar or food processor
work bowl, or handle the blades
with appliance plugged in.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance
with a damaged cord or plug, or
after the appliance malfunctions,
or is dropped or damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to
nearest Cuisinart service facility
for examination, repair, and/or
mechanical or electrical
adjustment.
7. The use of attachments other than
those recommended by Cuisinart,
including canning or ordinary jars,
not recommended or sold by
Cuisinart, may cause fire, electrical
shock, or risk of injury to persons.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge
of counter or table, or touch hot
surfaces, which could damage
the cord.
10. Keep hands and utensils out of
jar/food processor work bowl
during use to reduce the risk of
severe injury to persons or
damage to blender itself. A
rubber or plastic spatula may be
used but must be used only when
the blender is turned OFF.
11. When motor base is in ON mode,
and LED lights are flashing, do
not touch cutting assembly,
interfere with blade movement or
remove blender jar cover.
Accidentally touching a speed
button may activate the blender.
12. BLADES ARE VERY SHARP.
HANDLE CAREFULLY.
Store out of reach of children.
13. To reduce the risk of injury, never
place chopping blade/cutting
assembly on base without the
blender jar or food processor
work bowl properly attached.
14. Always operate blender or food
processor with the cover in place.
15. Never leave your blender or food
processor unattended while
running.
16. When blending HOT liquids in
blender jar, remove measured pour
lid (center piece of cover) to
allow steam to escape.
17. Twist on locking ring firmly.
Injury can result if moving blades
accidentally become exposed.
18. Do not use an extension cord
with this unit. Doing so may result
in fire, electrical shock, or
personal injury.
19. Regarding your cord set: A
longer cord has been provided
so that you will have flexibility in
positioning your Cuisinart
®
SmartPower Duet ® Blender/Food
Processor near an electrical outlet.
Exercise care when using the
longer cord to avoid entangling or
tripping over the cord. The longer
cord should be arranged so that it
will not drape over the counter or
tabletop, where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over.
Excess cord should be stored in
the cord storage area at the back
of the blender base to avoid injury
caused by the longer cord.
20. Be certain the food processor
cover is securely locked in place
before operating appliance. Never
operate without the cover locked
securely in place.
21. Do not attempt to defeat the
food processor cover interlock
mechanism.
22. Never feed food into processor by
hand. Always use the food pusher.
23. Make sure the blade or disc has
come to a full stop before
removing cover.
24. This food processor attachment is
to be used only with Cuisinart ®
SPB-7 or FPB-5 series blenders.
Do not use with any other
manufacturer's blender base.
This appliance is intended for
household use only.
25. Wash the blender jar, food
processor work bowl, food
processor chopping blade, locking
ring, and covers before first use.
26. WARNING: TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL
SHOCK OR FIRE, DO NOT
REMOVE THE BASE PANEL.
NO USER SERVICEABLE
PARTS ARE INSIDE. REPAIR
SHOULD BE DONE ONLY BY
AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL.
27. WARNING: FLASHING
LIGHT INDICATES READY
TO OPERATE. DO NOT
TOUCH BLADES.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR
HOUSEHOLD
USE ONLY
NOTICE:
This appliance has a polarized plug
(one prong is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this plug will fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not
modify the plug in any way.
Maximum rating of 500 watts is based
on the jar attachment that draws the
greatest power. Other recommended
attachments may draw significantly
less power.
