IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Read Instruction Manual Before Use

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using
the appliance. It is suggested
that you keep these instructions
in a safe place for future
reference.

2. Your voltage must correspond to
the voltage printed on the bottom
of the appliance.

3. To protect against electrical
shock, do not immerse the motor
housing (base), cord, or plug in
water or other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary
when the appliance is used by or
near children.

5. Unplug appliance from outlet
when not in use, before putting

all times.

7. Do not operate the appliance with

mechanical adjustment.

8. The use of attachments including
canning jars not recommended
by the manufacturer may cause

IMPORTANT NOTICE

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only

does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

9. Do not use outdoors.

10. Do not let cord hang over edge of

while processing food to reduce
the risk of severe injury to

processor. A scraper may be
used but must be used only when
the food processor is not running.

12. Blades are sharp. Handle
carefully. When handling the
chopper blade always hold it by
the plastic hub.

place cutting blades or discs on
the base without first putting bowl
properly in place.

locked in place before operating
