Important Safeguards

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1Read all instructions carefully.

2To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put motor base, cord or plug of the appliance in water or other liquid.

3Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

4Turn unit off and unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. To disconnect, turn unit off, grasp plug, and pull from the wall. Never yank on cord.

5Avoid contact with moving parts. Keep hands, hair, clothing as well as utensils, away from the cutting blade during operation to prevent injury and/or damage to the chopper. A spatula may be used but only when the unit is not running.

6Blades are sharp; handle carefully.

7Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to an authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

8The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.

9Do not use outdoors.

10Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces, including the stove.

11Mixing flammable non-food substances can be harmful.

12When mixing liquids, especially hot liquids, use a tall container, or make small quantities at a time to reduce spillage.

13Do not use this appliance for other than intended use.

14Do not operate in the presence of explosive and/or flammable fumes.

15This appliance is intended for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

Save These Instructions

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).

As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

Before Your First Use

Carefully unpack the blender and accessories, and remove all packaging materials. Wash the chopper bowl, chopping blade, blade attachments, and hand blender attachment in warm, soapy water to remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging. Do not immerse the bowl cover, motor base, cord or plug in water. Wipe the motor base and bowl cover with a damp cloth.

CAUTION: The attachment blades are very sharp. Use care when handling.

Wolfgang Puck, owner of the famous Spago restaurants and

one of the most influential chef-restauranteurs in America, is credited with reviving California’s rich culinary heritage. His cooking innovations, a result of blending fresh California

ingredients with his classical French techniques, are enjoyed by world leaders, stars and fellow chefs alike. He established other trend-setting restaurants like Postrio in San Francisco, Chinois on Main in Santa Monica, Granita,

Vert and Trattoria del Lupo. Home chefs can also share Mr. Puck’s talents through his cookbooks and, of course, through his appliances!
