the motor cool down and to empty the filter basket. Ensure, that the spout will not block during
operation. Do not leave any food dry on the appliance or any parts of the appliance.

assembled properly and that there are no utensils in the filter basket. Do not insert your hands,
cooking utensils or any other objects (i.e. hair, clothes, brushes, tissue) in the filter basket, when
the appliance is connected to the power supply. Do not place the appliance on wet or damp
surfaces. Always keep the table or counter dry and clean. Do not drip or spill any liquids on the
motor base or power cord. Do not place any tissue or similar materials under the motor base
to avoid fire and electric shock. When liquids are spilled over or under the motor base than
