For Your Safety
The use of attachments, accessories or items not recommended or
sold by Vorwerk, or the use of defective or incompatible accessory
parts may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
• Use only the recommended original
Vorwerk Thermomix® accessories.
• Never use Thermomix® TM6 in combination with parts or equipment for
older generations of Thermomix®.
• Do not modify your Thermomix® TM6 or any of the accessories.
• Never use your Thermomix® TM6 with damaged accessories.
If you use other utensils apart from the spatula supplied to stir food
in the mixing bowl, they could get caught in the mixing knife and
cause injury.
• Only use the spatula supplied for stirring.
• Place only the flat end of the spatula in the mixing bowl.
You could scald yourself on hot food in the simmering basket.
• Use care when removing the simmering basket.
• Ensure that the spatula is hooked securely onto the simmering basket
before taking the simmering basket out.
• Once you have put the simmering basket down, remove the spatula to
prevent the simmering basket from tipping over.
The process of kneading dough or chopping food may cause
Thermomix® TM6 to move. Thermomix® TM6 could fall over and
injure you.
• Place Thermomix® TM6 on a clean, solid and even surface.
• Ensure that there is sufficient distance between the appliance and the
edge of the work surface.
• Never leave Thermomix® TM6 unattended while it is running.
If accessories get caught in the mixing knife when the appliance is
running, small splinters and sharp edges could cause injury.
• Use only Thermomix® accessories as described in the operating
instructions and on the display of the base unit.
• If any accessories are damaged by the mixing knife during food
preparation, discard the food and contact Customer Care for replacement
accessories.
Methods of cooking such as slow cooking, fermenting (preserving)
and sous-vide cooking (vacuum-sealing food in a plastic pouch and
cooking at a temperature below 100 °C) require a low cooking
temperature. Because of the low temperature, it is possible for germs
to spread.
• Ensure hygienic working practices at every stage of the food preparation
and cooking process.
• Follow the instructions in the recipe exactly (temperature and time).
• Once food has been cooked according to the instructions in the recipe,
make sure that it is consumed immediately or that it is correctly
preserved/stored.
