When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. This appliance is not intended for use
by persons with reduced physical,
sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they
are closely supervised and instructed
concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
3. This appliance shall not be used by
children. Keep the appliance and its cord
out of reach of children.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any
appliance is used near children. Children
should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
5. To protect against risk of electrical shock,
do not put cord, plug, base, or motor in
water or other liquid.
6. Turn the appliance OFF (
from the outlet when not in use, before
assembling or disassembling parts, and
before cleaning. To unplug, grasp the
plug and pull from the outlet. Never pull
from the power cord.
7. Avoid contact with moving parts.
8. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged supply cord or plug, or after
the appliance malfunctions or has been
dropped or damaged in any manner.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard. Call
the provided customer service number
for information on examination, repair, or
adjustment
9. The use of attachments, including
canning jars, not recommended or sold
by the appliance manufacturer may
cause a risk of injury to persons.
10. Do not use outdoors.
11. Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter or touch hot surfaces,
including stove.
12. Do not place on or near a hot gas or
electric burner, or in a heated oven.
); then unplug
13. Keep hands and utensils, other than the
tamper provided, out of container while
blending to reduce the risk of severe
injury to persons or damage to the
blender. The cover must remain in place
when using the tamper through the
cover opening. A scraper may be used
but must be used only when the blender
is not running.
14. Blades are sharp; handle carefully—
especially when emptying or cleaning
the blender jar.
15. Do not use a broken, chipped, or
cracked blender jar.
16. Do not use broken, cracked, or loose
cutting blade assembly.
17. Always operate blender with Lid in place.
Remove emulsion cup only for adding
ingredients or to insert the tamper.
18. When blending hot liquids, remove
emulsion cup and close any edge
cover opening intended for pouring. To
prevent possible burns: Do not exceed
1000-ml level. Hot liquids may push off
Lid during blending; therefore, with the
protection of an oven mitt or thick towel,
place one hand on top of the Lid, keep
exposed skin away from the Lid, and
start blending at lowest speed.
19. Ensure cutter assembly is tight and
secure to jar. Injury can result if moving
blades accidentally become exposed.
20. Do not leave blender unattended while it
is operating.
21. Check that the appliance is OFF (
before plugging cord into wall outlet. To
disconnect cord, switch to OFF (
remove plug from wall outlet. To unplug,

Other Consumer Safety Information
This product is intended for household use only.
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.
The extension cord must be a groundingtype, 3-wire cord. 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 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.
When using a new blender, the motor will
sometimes give off a burning smell. This
is not a sign of a problem. However, if
you are concerned about the motor smell
or have a question, please call us via our
customer service number at 400-852-2655.

Blender and Accessory Tips
Blender Tips
• To add foods when Blender is operating,
remove Emulsion Cup and add
ingredients through the opening.
• For best performance, the minimum
amount of liquid needed per recipe is
one cup (8 ounces [237 ml]). Add more
liquid if food is not blending properly.
The amount of liquid needed will vary
based on the other ingredients required
for blending.
• If blending action stops during blending
or ingredients stick to sides of Jar,
remove Emulsion Cup and insert Tamper
to help move the mixture around or add
more liquid to Blender Jar.
• Do not store food or liquids in Blender
Jar.
• Avoid bumping or dropping Blender
when in operation or at any time.
• Use Tamper when making nut butters
and blend in 1-minute intervals.
Using the Tamper
• Cutting large whole fruits and
vegetables may allow them to blend
more quickly.
• Do not fill Blender Jar past highest
graduation marking.
• Always place liquid in Blender Jar first,
then remaining ingredients.
• If ice or frozen fruit pieces are not
blending, stop the Blender and pulse a
few times.
• Do not allow ice to stand or freeze
in Jar. Immediately crush ice after
placing in Jar.
NOTE: This machine is equipped
with motor overload protection. If the
motor stops during operation due to
overheating, unplug and allow it to cool
down for approximately 15 minutes.
Plug machine back in to resume normal
operation. (See “Troubleshooting” on
page 13.)
• The hand protector on the Tamper and
the Lid work together to prevent the
Tamper from hitting the blades when the
Lid is secured properly on the Blender Jar.
• The Blender Jar should not be more than
two-thirds full when the Tamper is used
during blending.
• Only use the Tamper provided with this
model Blender. Do not use Tampers made
for any other Blender or Blender model.
• If food does not circulate, an air bubble
may be trapped in the mixture. Remove
the Blender Jar from the Blender base.
Remove the Emulsion Cup. Release
the air bubble by inserting the Tamper
through the Emulsion Cup opening.
• Holding the Tamper straight down may
not help ingredients circulate. If necessary,
point the Tamper toward the sides or
corners of the Blender Jar. DO NOT try to
force the Tamper deeper into the Jar.

• Make sure that the main power
• Check to see if unit is securely plugged into an electrical outlet of the proper voltage and
frequency.
• Check to see if the fuse for the electrical outlet has blown or if a circuit breaker has
tripped.
Blender stops while it is running and the Program Lights are illuminated.
• This Blender is equipped with motor overload protection. If the motor stops during
operation due to overheating, unplug and allow the Blender to cool down. Plug Blender
back in after 15 minutes.
• Resume normal operation.
Ingredients will not mix properly.
• Check to see if enough liquid has been added to the ingredients. Mixture should be fluid
and free-running at all times.
• Solid pieces are too large.
• Container is too full. Do not fill past highest 1800 ml graduation marking.
• Cutting Blades are not sharp or are damaged. Inspect container and Cutting Assembly
daily.
• Select speed to create a fluid blend.
Blender smells like it is burning.
• Due to high-speed operation, the temperature of the motor increases, and the grease
and insulation material in the motor will emit odors when heated. At this point, turn off
the Blender and let it cool down.
• Although motors are tested during the manufacturing process, heavy use may cause
curing of motor windings. The smell may quickly dissipate after a few heavy uses.
• If smell continues after additional heavy uses, call our customer service center.
There is grease around the bottom of the Blender Jar or on the counter top.
• Monitor the problem and source. This may indicate an issue with the Jar bearings.
• Call our customer service center if the condition persists.
Blender Jar is cloudy or stained.
• Some cloudiness may be natural after use. The minerals from fruits, produce, and leafy
greens, in addition to the oils of various nut butters, can sometimes cause a film on the
Blender Jar or may be difficult to clean.
