IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic safety
precautions should always be adhered to, including
the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electric shock, do not put
motor base in water or other liquids.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance
is used by or near children or individuals with certain
disabilities.
4. Always unplug unit from outlet when not in use,
before putting on or taking off parts, before
cleaning, and before removing food from bowl.
To unplug, grasp plug and pull from electrical
outlet. Never pull cord.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord
or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or if
appliance has been dropped or damaged in any
manner, or dropped into water. Return the appliance
to the nearest authorized Consumer Service Center
(see Warranty for details) for examination, repair, and
electrical or mechanical adjustment.
7. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by
Cuisinart may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
8. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter,
or touch hot surfaces, including the stove.
9. Do not use outdoors.
10. Keep hands and utensils away from moving blade
while processing to prevent the risk of severe injury
to persons or damage to the chopper/grinder. A
scraper may be used, but must only be used when
the
chopper/grinder is not running.
11. Blade is extremely sharp. Handle carefully when
removing, inserting or cleaning. Always allow
blade to stop moving before removing cover.
12. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade
on base without first putting work bowl properly in
place.
13. Be certain cover is securely locked in place before
operating appliance. Do not attempt to remove cover
until blade has stopped rotating.
14. Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock
mechanism, as serious injury may result.
15. Before using, check work bowl for presence of
foreign objects.
16. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance
garage or under a wall cabinet. When storing in an
appliance garage, always unplug the unit from the
electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of
fire, especially if the appliance touches the walls of
the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes.
