How to Use
IMPORTANT: Your Hamilton Beach Stay or Go™Personal Blending Jar
and cutting blades are subject to wear during normal use. Always inspect
jar for nicks, chips, or cracks. Always inspect cutting blades for broken,
cracked, or loose blades. Do not use damaged jar or cutting blades. Call
our toll-free customer service number to obtain replacement parts.
1. Make sure blender is unplugged. Place blender base on clean, dry
surface to keep foreign particles from being pulled up into motor
during operation.
2. Place ingredients in personal blending jar. Do not exceed MAX fill
line.
3. Place cutting blades in retaining ring. Fit gasket over blades. The
gasket must lie flat. Set cutting assembly on top of jar and screw
on retaining ring or jar nut. Make sure the retaining ring or jar nut is
firmly screwed onto the jar. If not, it may loosen later when motor is
turned on.
4. Set personal blending jar in place on blender base, making sure it
is securely seated. If not, gently rock the jar until seated. Plug cord
into outlet. Follow the instructions provided with your blender for
operation.
NOTE: ALWAYS turn blender off and wait until blades have
stopped rotating before removing jar.
5. To remove personal blending jar after blending is complete:
• for blenders with a retaining ring, twist jar to unlock then lift the
jar straight up.
• for blender models with a jar nut, lift jar straight up.
If it is not easily removed, rock gently and lift.
NOTE: NEVER replace jar onto unit while motor is running.
6. Turn personal blending jar so that the cutting assembly is on top of
the jar. Unscrew cutting assembly then remove the retaining ring,
cutting blades and gasket.
7. Screw lid on personal blending jar clockwise.
