7. Avoid contact with moving parts. Keep hands, hair,
clothing, as well as spatulas and other utensils away from
attachments and mixing container during operation to

quantities at a time to reduce spillage and possibility of
injury.
11. Charger handle should be plugged into an electrical outlet
away from sink or hot surfaces.

product. Also, do not attempt to charge the batteries with
any other charger.
14. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
