• Always disconnect the appliance from the supply if it is left unattended and
before assembling, disassembling or cleaning.
• Always handle the power cord with care. Always completely unwind the
power cord before use. Do not place the appliance on the power cord. The
power cord may never be knotted, twisted, pulled, strained or squeezed. Do
not let the plug or power cord hang over the edge of the table or counter.
The power cord may not touch hot surfaces. Ensure that no one will pull the
appliance by the power cord. Take care not to entangle in the power cord.
Always grasp the plug to disconnect the power cord. Do not touch the power
plug with wet hands when the appliance is connected to the power supply.
• Do not place or immerse the motor housing or the power cord in water
or any other liquid. Do not spill or drip any liquids on the power cord or
exterior of the motor housing. When liquids are spilled on the motor housing
or power cord, immediately unplug and switch OFF (ON/OFF button and
power switch) the appliance.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

• The edges of the cutter blade are very sharp. Ensure not to get injured
when handling the cutter blade.
• Do not hold your face over the feed tube, while the motor is agitating,
because splinters could escape from the feed tube, if you failed to see small
