IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put cord,
plug, base, or motor in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used
by or near children.
4. Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting on
or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
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. Call our toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical
adjustment.
7. The use of attachments, including canning jars, not
recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer
may cause a risk of injury to persons.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch
hot surfaces, including stove.
10. Keep hands and utensils out of blender jar and chopper bowl
while blending to reduce the risk of severe personal injury
and/or damage to blender. A rubber spatula may be used
but must be used only when blender is not running.
11. Blades are sharp; handle carefully – especially when
assembling, disassembling, or cleaning inside blender jar.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
12. Do not use a broken, chipped, or cracked blender jar.
13. Do not use broken, cracked, or loose cutting blade assembly.
14. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade assembly
on base without blender jar or chopper bowl properly attached.
15. Always operate blender with lid in place.
16. When blending hot liquids, open vent opening of lid, and close
any lid openings intended for pouring. If pouring with lid in
place, ensure the vent-opening cap is closed. Hot liquids may
push lid off jar during blending. To prevent possible burns:
Do not fill blender jar beyond the 3-cup (750-ml) level. With the
protection of an oven mitt or thick towel, place one hand on
top of lid. Keep exposed skin away from lid. Start blending at
lowest speed.
17. Ensure collar on base of blender jar is tight and secure. Injury
can result if moving blades accidentally become exposed.
18. If the jar should twist or rotate when the motor is switched
ON, switch OFF immediately and tighten jar in collar or on
blender base.
19. Do not leave blender unattended while it is operating.
20. To disconnect cord, turn the control to OFF. Then remove plug
from wall outlet.
21. Do not use appliance for other than intended purpose.
22. If blender contains food chopper attachment, be certain cover
is securely locked in place before operating appliance.
23. Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism.

Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only. Use for food
or liquids only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug
(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The
plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or
by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace
the outlet.
Wattage/Peak Power Information
The wattage/ampere rating of the blender is determined by an
Underwriters Laboratory test and is based on available cutting
blade assembly, jar combinations, and attachments that may
not be provided with your unit, but are available as replacement
parts. This is a measure of input wattage/amperes after 30
seconds of operation. The blender as provided may draw
significantly less power.
Peak power is the measure of the motor wattage during the first
seconds of operation. This is when a blender requires the most
power to crush ice, frozen fruit, etc. This is a better measure of
what a blender motor can consume when power is needed
most.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension
cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care
must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not
drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled
on by children or accidentally tripped over.
If the cutting blade assembly locks and will not move, it will
damage the motor. Do not use. Call the toll-free customer service
number for information.
Do not place blender jar in the freezer filled with food or liquid.
This can result in damage to the cutting blade assembly, jar,
blender, and possibly result in personal injury.
BEFORE FIRST USE: After unpacking blender, wash everything
except blender base in hot, soapy water. Dry thoroughly. Wipe
blender base with a damp cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE
BASE IN WATER. Care should be taken when handling cutting
blade assembly as it is very sharp.

Using Your Blender (cont.)
Blender Tips
•
To add foods when blender is operating, open hinged pouring cap
and add ingredients through the opening.
•
For best performance, the minimum amount of liquid needed per
recipe is one cup (8 ounces/250 ml). Add more liquid if food is not
blending properly.
•
If blending action stops during blending or ingredients stick to
sides of the jar, there may not be enough liquid in the jar to blend
efficiently.
