1. Belangrike veiligheidsinligting
Please read all instructions carefully before using the blender. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
Algemene veiligheidsmaatreëls
- Always unplug the blender from the electrical outlet when not in use, before assembling or disassembling parts, and before cleaning.
- Moenie die motorbasis in water of ander vloeistowwe dompel nie.
- Vermy kontak met bewegende dele.
- Moenie enige toestel gebruik met 'n beskadigde koord of prop, of nadat die toestel wanfunksioneer of op enige manier laat val of beskadig is nie.
- Die gebruik van aanhegsels wat nie deur die vervaardiger aanbeveel of verkoop word nie, kan brand, elektriese skok of beserings veroorsaak.
- Moenie buite gebruik nie.
- Moenie dat koord oor die rand van tafel of toonbank hang, of aan warm oppervlaktes raak nie.
- Hou hande en gereedskap uit die houer terwyl jy meng om die risiko van ernstige beserings aan persone of skade aan die blender te verminder. 'n Skrapper mag gebruik word, maar slegs wanneer die blender nie loop nie.
- Lemme is skerp. Hanteer versigtig.
- Bedien altyd die blender met deksel op sy plek.
- Hierdie toestel is nie bedoel vir gebruik deur persone (insluitend kinders) met verminderde fisiese, sensoriese of geestelike vermoëns, of 'n gebrek aan ervaring en kennis nie, tensy hulle toesig of instruksies oor die gebruik van die toestel gegee is deur 'n persoon wat verantwoordelik is vir hul veiligheid.
Elektriese veiligheid
Hierdie toestel het 'n gepolariseerde prop (een lem is breër as die ander). Om die risiko van elektriese skok te verminder, is hierdie prop bedoel om slegs op een manier in 'n gepolariseerde uitlaat te pas. As die prop nie heeltemal in die uitlaat pas nie, draai die prop om.
