Important safety
instructions
The use of any electrical appliance

sense safety rules.
Primarily there is danger of injury or

space e.g. between a low socket and
table.
• Do not let the lead run across a cooker or
toaster or other hot area which might
damage the cable.
Your safety
• Unplug from outlet before cleaning or
removing parts.
• Do not touch moving parts. Keep hands,
hair, clothing as well as utensils away
from the hand blender blades.
• Don’t let rotating blades touch the mains

being carried out.
• Teach children to be aware of dangers in
the kitchen, warn them of the dangers of
reaching up to areas where they cannot
see properly or should not be reaching.
Other safety
