- Be careful when you pour hot liquid into the beaker, as hot liquid and
steam may be ejected and cause scalding.
- Let the appliance cool down for 10 minutes before you steam
another batch of ingredients.
- The appliance is not intended for chopping hard ingredients such
as ice cubes and sugar cubes.
- Do not let the appliance blend for more than 30 seconds at a time.
If you have not finished blending after 30 seconds, switch off the
appliance and wait a few seconds before you continue. If the
appliance becomes hot, let it cool down for a few minutes before
you continue.
- Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal and level surface. Make
sure there is enough free space around it to prevent damage to e.g.
cabinets or other objects, as the appliance emits hot steam during
use.
- Do not use the appliance if it has fallen or is damaged in any way.
Take it to an authorised Philips service centre for repair.
- Never put water, other liquids or blended food in the jar for steaming
to avoid damage to the appliance.
- Never use the steaming function without water.
- Make sure that you do not overfill the water tank (max. 200ml).
Do not exceed the maximum level indicated on the measuring cup.
- When you steam ingredients, make sure that you do not overfill the
jar. Make sure that the top edge of the green blade unit is not
covered with food (Fig. 2).
- When you blend liquids, do not exceed the maximum level indicated
on the jar (450ml).
- Do not lift and move the appliance while it is operating.
- Do not insert any object into the filling opening or the steam outlet.
- Never refill the water tank during the steaming process, as hot water
and steam may come out of the appliance as a result.
- Always make sure that the lid has cooled down after steaming before
you open it to add more ingredients for blending, if necessary.
- Do not connect the appliance to an external switching device such
as a timer and do not connect it to a circuit that is regularly switched
on and off by the utility. This prevents a hazard that could be caused
by inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-out.
- Always check the temperature of the baby food on the back of your
hand before you feed your baby.
- Always check the consistency of the baby food. Make sure there are
no chunks in the food.
