BEFORE USING
When using any electrical appliance, especially
when children are present, basic safety
precautions should always be taken to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock and/or injury,
including the following:
• This appliance is intended for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY and similar applications such as:
- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and
other working environments;
- farmhouses;
- clients in hotels, motels and other
residential type environments;
- bed and breakfast settings
• This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or
lack experience and knowledge - unless, they
have been given instruction and or guidance
concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
• Use only on an appropriate benchtop sitting
away from flammable materials such as
curtains, draperies and walls of similar nature
as a fire may occur if comes in contact or
becomes covered during operation.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas, electric
burner, or in a heated oven.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do
not operate any heating appliance beneath
or near the mounted charging base.
• Do not mount or store blender over or near
a portion of a heating or cooking appliance,
or a sink/washbasin.
• Never submerge any portion of the base/
motor in liquids. Only the blending/mixing
blade has been designed for submersion in
liquids. If base/motor falls into liquid, remove
immediately. Carefully remove, clean and dry
base/motor thoroughly before continuing.
• Blades are very sharp. Always handle with
care and store blade away from you.
• Never place blade on base unless the
tumbler is properly attached.
• Never leave your blender unattended while it
is running.
• Twist blade firmly onto tumbler. Injury can
result if moving blade accidentally becomes
exposed.
• Do not blend steaming-hot liquids as it can
be ejected out of the appliance due to a
sudden steaming.
• Do not blend carbonated beverages.
• To safely turn motor off release the Power
button.
• To avoid damage to the USB cord, do not let
cord meet any hot surfaces including a
stovetop.
• The USB power adapter and USB cable
should be plugged into an electrical outlet
away from sink or hot surface.
• Do not use an extension cord. Plug USB
power adapter directly into an electrical
outlet.
• Unplug the USB power adapter from the
outlet before attempting any routine
cleaning, assembling, disassembling or
cleaning of the charger.
• Do not operate a damaged USB power
adapter and replace immediately.
• Recharge only with the USB power adapter
specified by the manufacturer. A USB power
adapter (5VDC/2000mA output) that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
• Do not let USB cable hang over edge of
table or benchtop.
• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance
to fire or excessive heat. Exposure to fire or
temperatures above 130°C may cause an
explosion.

if severely damaged; the batteries contain
lithium ion which may explode in high
temperatures and in a fire.

battery cells can occur. If the liquid gets on
the skin, (1) wash quickly with soap and water
or (2) neutralise with mild acid such as lemon
juice or vinegar. If the liquid gets into eyes,
flush them immediately with clean water for a
minimum of 10 minutes. Seek medical
