DANGER for children

- Packing materials are not children's toys. Children should not be allowed to play with the plastic bags: there is a risk of suffocation.

- Keep the device out of the reach of children.

DANGER to and from pets and livestock

Electrical devices can represent a danger to pets and livestock. In addition, animals can also cause damage to the device. For this reason you should keep animals away from electrical devices at all times.

DANGER! Risk of electric shock due to moisture

The device must never be operated in the vicinity of a sink full of water or similar.

- The motor unit, the power cable and the mains plug must not be immersed in water or other liquids.

- Protect the motor unit from moisture and dripping or water splashes.

- If liquid gets into the device, disconnect the mains plug immediately. Have the device checked before reusing.

- Never touch the device with wet hands.

- If the device falls into water, disconnect the mains plug immediately. Only then is it safe to retrieve the device.

- Fill the container with a maximum of 500 ml of liquid in order to prevent liquid from getting into the motor unit.

DANGER! Risk of electric shock

- Only plug the mains plug into the wall socket after the device has been completely assembled.

- Only connect the mains plug to a properly installed and easily accessible wall socket whose voltage corresponds to the specifications on the rating plate. The wall socket must still be easily accessible after the device is plugged in.

- Ensure that the power cable cannot be damaged by sharp edges or hot spots.

- Even after it has been switched off, the device is not completely disconnected from the mains. In order to fully disconnect it, pull out the mains plug.

- When using the device, ensure that the power cable cannot be trapped or crushed.

- When removing the mains plug from the wall socket, always pull on the plug and never the cable.

- Disconnect the mains plug from the wall socket ...

... if there is a fault, ... when you are not using the multi chopper, ... during thunderstorms.

- Do not use the device if there is visible damage to the device or the power cable.

- In order to avoid any hazards, do not make modifications to the device.

DANGER! Risk of injury from cutting

• The blades of the blade assembly are sharp. Please be very careful when handling them. When washing manually, the water should be sufficiently clear that you can see the blades easily.
• The multi chopper must never be operated without a container.
• Never reach into the rotating blades.
• The blade assembly continues to rotate after the device is switched off. Wait for it to stop moving before you remove the working cover.

WARNING! Risk of material damage

- In order to prevent damage to the device, interrupt operation immediately if the blade assembly is either turning with difficulty or not turning at all. Pull out the mains plug and check whether there is something in the container blocking movement or whether the food is too tough or too hard. Also check that the device is assembled correctly.

- The maximum filling level is 500 ml for liquids. For solid food, please orientate yourself on the guidelines in these instructions.

- Switch off the device before you pull out the mains plug.

- Never place the device on hot surfaces (e.g. hot plates) or near to heat sources or open fire.

- Do not operate the multi chopper when it is empty, as this causes the motor to overheat which may result in it being damaged. Fill the container at least up to the marking for 200 ml.

- Only use the original accessories.

- All parts except for the motor unit are dishwasher-safe up to 70 °C.

- Do not use any astringent or abrasive cleaning agents.

The device is equipped with an anti-slip mat made from silicone. As furniture is coated with a variety of different varnishes and plastics, and is treated with different cleaning agents, it cannot be completely ruled out that components are contained in some of these substances which could damage and soften the anti-slip mat. If necessary, place a non-slip mat under the device.
