Important Safeguards for all Electrical Appliances

• Always operate the appliance near a suitable wall power outlet and connect the

appliance directly to the power outlet. Do not use any extension cords or a multiple desk

outlet.

• Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power supply corresponds to the voltage

requirements of the appliance (220/230 V, 50 Hz, AC). Always connect the appliance

directly to a mains power supply wall socket with protective conductor (earth/ground)

connected properly. The installation of a residual current safety switch with a maximum

rated residual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is strongly

recommended. If in doubt, contact your local electrician for further information.

• Do not leave the appliance unattended while connected to the power supply. Always

turn the appliance ´OFF` and IMMEDIATELY unplug the appliance after operation and

if it is not in use (even for a short break) and before cleaning and/or assembling or

disassembling. Always grasp the plug to disconnect the appliance from the power outlet.

• Always handle the power cord with care. Do not pull or strain the power cord. The

power cord may never be knotted or squeezed. Do not let the power cord hang over

the edge of the table or counter. Take care not to entangle in the power cord. Do not

touch the appliance with wet hands to avoid risk of electric shock. Do not touch the

appliance, if it is damp or wet or is touching wet surfaces while connected to the mains

power supply. In this case, immediately unplug the appliance and dry the appliance (see

‘Care and Cleaning’).

Movable and sharp-edged units – risk of injury

• Never put fingers, wooden spoons or other foreign substance (such as hair, clothing,

brushes, cloths) into the feed chute when the appliance is plugged into the power point.

• Only use the provided food pusher to push food through the feed chute.

• Always turn the appliance off, wait for the motor to stop moving and then pull the

plug before taking off the lid of the appliance.

• Never hold your face or other body parts over the feed chute when the motor is running

because little pieces of food could be thrown out of the feed chute.

• The blades and shredding and slicing discs are very sharp. Pay attention when handling

the units. Only touch the discs and blade on the edge and handle with care when

cleaning. Only store the appliance completely assembled. This way the blades and discs

will be out of reach.

• Never put foreign substance or hard objects into the feed chute. Remove all

inedible parts (such as stem, hard peeling and seeds) of the food before putting

them into the feed chute.

• The motor pursues running for a little while after turning the appliance off. Wait until

the motor stops running completely before you open or move the appliance.
