Melissa 246-009: INTRODUCTION SAFETY MEASURES PRIOR TO FIRST USE

INTRODUCTION

To get the best out of your new mixer, please read through

these instructions carefully before using it for the first time.

Pay particular attention to the safety measures. We also

recommend that you keep the instructions for future

reference, so that you can remind yourself of the functions

of the mixer.

SAFETY MEASURES

• 

Incorrect use of the mixer may cause personal injury

and damage to the mixer.

• 

Use the mixer for its intended purpose only. The

manufacturer is not responsible for any damage

resulting from incorrect use or handling (see also

Guarantee Terms).

• 

The mixer may only be connected to 230 V, 50 Hz.

• 

The mixer or the cord must not be immersed in water or

any other liquid. If you drop the mixer in water by

accident, or it gets wet in any other way, you must

immediately remove the plug from the socket and get

an authorised repair engineer to examine the mixer

before you use it again. It is extremely important that

you follow these instructions, as water in the mixer

could give rise to fatal electric shocks.

• 

Never try to open the cabinet yourself and never force

objects into it.

• 

Do not use the mixer when your hands are wet, when

the floor is wet or when the mixer itself is wet. Never

touch the plug with wet or damp hands.

• 

Check regularly that the cord is not damaged and do

not use the mixer if this is the case, or if the mixer has

been dropped or damaged in any other way. If the

mixer, cord or plug is damaged, the mixer must be

inspected and, if necessary, repaired by an authorised

repair engineer, otherwise there is a risk of electric

shock. Never try to repair the appliance yourself.

• 

Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of the

table, and keep it way from hot objects and naked

flames. Avoid pulling the cord when removing the plug

from the socket. Take hold of the plug instead. Check

that it is not possible to pull or trip over the mixer cable

or any extension cord. 

• 

This mixer is not suitable for commercial or outdoor use.

• 

Never leave the mixer unattended when in use and keep

an eye on children. The plug should always be removed

from the socket after use or when cleaning.

• 

Never lift the mixer by its upper section, and never

change the mixing or whisking tools while the mixer is

running. Only use the accessories that accompany the

mixer, otherwise the guarantee will become void. The

mixer must not be switched on unless there is

something to mix or whisk in it.

• 

The bowl must be secured in the correct position before

switching on the mixer. The bowl must never be

removed while the mixer is running.

• 

If you touch the bowl with a spatula or similar utensil

while the mixer is running, make sure that your fingers

and the spatula do not touch the mixing or whisking

tools.
