DANGER of electric shock
•The user does not have to do anything to switch the product
between 50 and 60 Hz. The product is suitable for both 50 and
60 Hz supplies.
•Only plug in the mini chopper to a power socket, which is
accordingly installed and easily accessible, whose mains voltage
corresponds with the rating plate specifications. Once the device is
plugged in, the power socket must be kept easily accessible so
that the plug can be pulled out quickly in an emergency.
•The power cord and plug must not be damaged. Never replace a
damaged power cord. Instead, contact the service department
(see ‘Warranty information’ section). If the power cord is
damaged, there is a risk of electric shock.
•If the device’s power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, their service department or by a similarly qualified
person in order to prevent any hazards.
•Never open the housing of the motor block (2), as this contains
parts to be maintained. If the housing is open, there is a risk of
electric shock.
•If you notice any smoke, unusual noises or smells, remove the plug
from the power socket immediately. If this happens, you must stop
using the mini chopper until it has been checked by a specialist. If
the device catches fire, do not inhale any resulting smoke. If you
do inhale any smoke, seek medical attention. Smoke inhalation
can be harmful to your health.
