Thermomix® can move
• Place your Thermomix® on a clean, solid, even and non-heatable surface
so that it cannot slip.
• Keep the Thermomix® at a sufficient distance from the edge of the
surface to prevent it from falling off.
• Be aware that occasionally when kneading dough or chopping food,
an imbalance can develop in the mixing bowl which, under certain
circumstances, may cause the whole Thermomix® to move. Do not
leave the Thermomix® unattended while it is kneading dough or
chopping food.
