When adding liquid, use the pour - through center shaft of the mixing baffle with the cover closed to avoid mess.
For safety, always make sure the electromechanical safety interlocks are working properly. The controls are protected by a high - impact - resistant enclosure, but still, keep the unit away from water sources when it's plugged in.
