Safety Instructions

To prevent injury or damage, please adhere to the following safety guidelines:

• Read all instructions before using the appliance.
• Ensure the motor unit is securely rotated to lock the slot on the glass bowl before pressing the switch to start.
• Always hold the glass bowl firmly with one hand while operating the motor unit with the other.
• Do not operate the appliance continuously for more than 30 seconds. Prolonged use can cause overheating and trigger the automatic shut-off.

• The blades are extremely sharp. Handle them with extreme care, especially during assembly, disassembly, and cleaning. Keep them out of reach of children.

• This product is designed for US voltage and plug only. Do not use with voltage converters or adapters unless specifically approved.
• Keep hands and utensils out of the container while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the food chopper.
