					• NEVER operate the appliance when it is empty,   
					i.e. without ingredients in the mixing attachment.   
					Safety Notices   
					ƽ To reduce the risk of fire or injury:   
					• NEVER insert your hand or fingers in the mixing   
					jug, especially when it is in use. The cutters are   
					extremely sharp!   
					ƽ To avoid the risk of a potentially   
					fatal electric shock:   
					• Ensure that the motor block, the power cable and   
					the power plug are never submersed in water or   
					other fluids.   
					• Only use the appliance in dry rooms, never use   
					it outdoors or in moist environments.   
					• Make sure that the power cable never becomes   
					wet or damp during operation. Lay the cable   
					such that it does not get clamped or otherwise   
					damaged.   
					• DO NOT open the cover when the appliance is   
					in operation. Should you do so, pieces of the   
					foodstuff could be thrown out at high speeds!   
					• Do not insert cutlery items or mixing tools into   
					the mixing jug when the appliance is in use.   
					There is a considerable risk of injury should these   
					make contact with the swiftly rotating cutters!   
					• In order to be able to react immediately in the   
					event of danger, always have the appliance   
					under supervision when it is in use.   
					• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables   
					to be replaced at once by qualified technicians   
					or our Customer Service Department.   
					• This appliance is not intended for use by indivi-   
					duals (including children) with restricted physical,   
					physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences   
					in experience and/or knowledge unless they are   
					supervised by a person responsible for their safety   
					or receive from this person instruction in how the   
					appliance is to be used.   
					• Always remove the plug from the power socket   
					after use. Switching off the appliance is not suffi-   
					cient because the appliance receives power as   
					long as the power plug is connected to the socket.   
					• Check to ensure that the appliance is in a service-   
					able condition before taking it into use. The ap-   
					pliance may not be used if there is recognisable   
					damage on it, especially to the motor block and   
					the glass mixing jug.   
					• Immediately remove the plug from the socket   
					should you hear or smell anything unexpected   
					from the appliance when it is in use or there is   
					an evident malfunction.   
					• Children should be supervised to ensure that   
					they do not play with the appliance.   
					Intended Use   
					This appliance is intended for ...   
					– the mixing, blending and stirring of foodstuffs   
					as well as the crushing of ice cubes,   
					– exclusively for normal domestic amounts and   
					only for private use in a domestic environment   
					in dry rooms.   
					ƽ To avoid overheating and the   
					risk of fire:   
					• Do not use the appliance in locations with direct   
					sunlight or in the vicinity of heat generating ap-   
					pliances.   
					This appliance is not intended for ...   
					– the hacking of hard foodstuffs, such as nuts,   
					seeds, large kernels or stalks,   
					– the processing of materials that are not foodstuffs,   
					– utilisation for commercial or industrial purposes,   
					– for use in moist environments or outdoors.   
					• NEVER fill the mixing jug with boiling fluids or ot-   
					her foods!   
					Allow these to cool to a handwarm temperature.   
					Otherwise, the appliance could overheat and/   
					or the glass of the mixing jug could crack!

					Unpacking   
					• Remove all packaging materials or protective fo-   
					ils from the appliance. Retain the packaging, so   
					that you can store the appliance with protection   
					or send it by post, e.g. should it need repair.   
					• Before taking the appliance into use, check to   
					ensure that it is free of damage, check also that   
					the power cable and plug as well as all accesso-   
					ries and appliance parts are undamaged.   
					• Carefully clean all components before taking the   
					appliance into use for the first time   
					Preparing for use   
					When all components have been cleaned as described   
					under “Cleaning”:   
					Position the appliance such that, ...   
					➩ 
					– that the power cable   
					passes through the re-   
					y 
					cess at the rear of the appliance,   
					– the power plug is immediately accessible, so that   
					it can be quickly withdrawn in the event of   
					danger.   
					(see “Cleaning”).   
					– that it is stable and not liable to slip, and such   
					that the suction cups find a firm hold so that the   
					appliance cannot tip over due to vibration.   
					– that the power cable   
					is not in the working   
					y 
					area and thus not presenting a risk of being inad-   
					vertently snagged and tipping the appliance   
					over.
