IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic
safety precautions should always be followed:
1.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock,
do not put the knife handle in water or
other liquid. If handle or cord falls into
liquid, unplug the cord from outlet
immediately. Do not reach into the liquid.
3. To avoid possible accidental injury, close
supervision is necessary when any
appliance is used by or near children.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use,
before putting on or taking off parts, and
before cleaning.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts. Keep
hands, hair, clothing and other utensils
away from blade during operation to
reduce risk of injury to persons and/or
damage to the knife.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance has malfunctioned or has been
dropped or damaged in any way or is not
operating properly. Return the appliance
to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center
for examination, repair, mechanical or
electrical adjustment.
7. The use of attachments not recommended
by Cuisinart may cause fire, electrical
shock, or risk of injury.
8. Do not use outdoors or anywhere the
cord or knife might come into contact
with water while in use.
9. To avoid the possibility of the knife being
accidentally pulled off work area, which
could result in damage to the knife or
personal injury, do not let cord hang over
edge of table or counter.
10. To avoid damage to cord and possible fire
or electrocution hazard, do not let cord
contact hot surfaces, including a stove.
11. Do not operate knife in water or under
running water.
12. Unplug cord from outlet when inserting,
removing or changing blades.
13. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
Always handle blades with hand away
from cutting edge. Always store blades
with cutting edge away from you.
