IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

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

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

2. To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do
not put motor base of blender in water or other
liquids.

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

4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting
on or taking off parts, and before cleaning or
removing contents from blender jar. Never put

hands into the blender jar, or handle the blades
with appliance plugged in.

5. Avoid contact with moving parts.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged
cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions
or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return
appliance to nearest Cuisinart service facility for
examination, repair, and/or mechanical or electrical
adjustment.

7. The use of attachments, including canning or
ordinary jars, not recommended or sold by
Cuisinart may cause fire, electrical shock, or risk
of injury to persons.

8. Do not use outdoors.

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

10. Keep hands and utensils out of jar while

blending, to reduce the risk of severe injury to
persons or damage to blender itself. A rubber

or plastic spatula may be used but must be used
only when the blender is turned off.

11. When blender is on, and LED lights are illuminated
or flashing, do not touch cutting assembly, inter­fere with blade movement, or remove blender jar
cover. Accidentally touching a speed button may
activate the blender.

12. BLADES ARE SHARP. HANDLE CAREFULLY.

13. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting
assembly on base unless the blender jar is
properly attached.

14. Always operate blender with the cover in place.

15. Never leave your blender unattended while it is
running.

16. Twist locking ring on firmly. Injury can result if
moving blades accidentally become exposed.

17. Regarding your cord set: A longer cord has
been provided so that you will have flexibility in
positioning your Cuisinart SmartPower
600-Watt Blender. Exercise care when using the
longer cord to avoid entangling or tripping over the
cord. The longer cord should be arranged so that
it will not drape over the counter or tabletop, where
it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
Excess cord should be stored in the cord storage
area at the back of the blender base to avoid injury
caused by the longer cord.

18. Wash the blender jar, cutting assembly, locking
ring, and cover before first use.

19. WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE, DO NOT REMOVE
THE BASE PANEL. NO USER-SERVICEABLE
PARTS ARE INSIDE. REPAIR SHOULD BE DONE
ONLY BY AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL.

20. WARNING: FLASHING LIGHT INDICATES READY
TO OPERATE. DO NOT TOUCH BLADES.
