-
Before use, check the integrity of the appliance and power cable. DO NOT operate the appliance at all when the Motor unit is damaged. If the Motor unit is not damaged, but an accessory (Push Rod, Grating / Slicing / Shredding Blades, Disc Holder, Chopping Blade unit, Drive Shaft & Cover, Processing Bowl & Cover, etc.) is damaged, DO NOT operate the Motor unit in conjunction with that accessory. In case you are not sure, contact a qualified person. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer / service agent or a qualified technician in order to avoid a shock hazard.
