SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safet y
precautions should always be taken, including
the following:

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before

putting on or taking off parts, and before
cleaning or removing contents from

the blender container, or handle the blades
with appliance plugged in.

3. To protect against electrical hazards, and
permanent damage to unit, do not put motor
base of blender in water or other liquids.

4. This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.

5. Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.

or damaged in any manner. Return appliance
to the nearest authorized service facility for
examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical
adjustment.

11. The use of attachments, including canning
jars, not recommended by the manufacturer
may cause a risk of injury to persons.

12. Do not use outdoors.

13. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or
counter, or touch hot surfaces.

and continue blending. Do not operate if
overflowing.

21. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance
garage. When storing in an appliance garage,
