6 Notes for your safety
possible damage. If damage does occur,
do not use the Thermomix®TM5 and
contact Vorwerk customer service or an
authorised Vorwerk repairer.
• The Thermomix®TM5 (including the
connecting power cord) must only be
repaired by the responsible Vorwerk
customer service or an authorised
Vorwerk repairer. Improper repair
works or improper handling may result
in serious risks for the user. Vorwerk
accepts no liability for any damages
that may arise as a consequence of
using a non-authorised repairer.
Danger of injury from the sharp
mixing knife
• Do not touch the blades of the mixing
knife, they are very sharp. Hold the
upper part of the mixing knife when
removing or re-inserting it.
• Do not reach into the hole in the
mixing bowl lid or touch the mixing
knife when the Thermomix®TM5
is in operation.
Danger of scalding by splashing
hot food
• Place a maximum quantity of 2.2 litres
of ingredients into the mixing bowl.
• Observe the fill level marks on the
mixing bowl.
• Only use your Thermomix®TM5 with
a clean mixing bowl lid and sealing ring.
Ensure that the brim of the mixing
bowl is clean at all times. Inspect the
sealing ring regularly for possible
damage. Be aware that the sealing ring
is not removable and attempting to
do so may result in damage. In case
of damage or leakage exchange the
lid immediately. Do not use your
Thermomix®TM5 until you have
exchanged the lid.
• Never try to force the mixing bowl lid
open. Only open the mixing bowl lid
when the speed is set to “0” and the
locking mechanism has released it.
• Never use the Turbo mode or abruptly
increase the speed when processing
hot food (temperature above 60 °C),
especially if the food has not been
heated in the Thermomix®TM5.
• Never hold or touch the measuring
cup when processing hot food
(temperature above 60 °C).
• Be aware of hot food escaping from the
hole in the mixing bowl lid. Place the
measuring cup correctly into the hole and
leave it in place when processing hot food
(e.g. jam, soup) especially at medium
(3–6) and higher (7–10) speed levels.
• Do not use Varoma temperature to heat
or cook large quantities of food.
• Use only low to medium speed levels
( –6) when selecting Varoma tempera-
ture. Higher speed levels can lead to
splashing of hot food or frothing up of
liquid.
• Be sure to place your Thermomix®TM5
on a clean, solid, even and non-heatable
surface, particularly when using the
Varoma.
• Remove the mixing bowl carefully to
prevent any spillage, especially when
the mixing bowl contents are hot.
