Hazard

In rare cases, when the TM6 measuring cup is inserted into the Thermomix TM5 or TM6 and the cooking temperature is set to exceed 95˚C / 200˚F, excess pressure can build in the mixing bowl causing the sudden spillage of hot food, leading to increased risk of burns. This risk is increased when the recommended fill level (as set out in the instructions and indicated on the inside of the mixing bowl) is exceeded. There have been 36 incidents reported to the company worldwide.

Remedy

Thermomix have issued a safety notice to warn consumers of the risks. For further information, access the Vorwerk website .
