Dear Drink Mixer Owner,

Congratulations on your purchase. The Hamilton Beach®Eclectrics

™

Collection adds a modern twist to those dependable, all-metal
appliances you remember from yesteryear.

Owning a Hamilton Beach

®

is like owning a piece of history. In 1904,
Louis Hamilton and Chester Beach teamed up to bring motorized
appliances like vacuums, sewing machines, and mixers into American
households. In honor of their 100-year legacy, we’ve combined the
“built to last” metal construction of the past with the styling of today
to bring lasting quality and style to your kitchen.

As you use your all-metal appliance, think about the history that came
before it. Enjoy the confidence you have in a product backed by years
of experience and a 3-year warranty. But most of all, fill your home
with the delicious aroma of homemade recipes that your appliance
helps you create!

I hope you enjoy your Hamilton Beach

®

Eclectrics™appliance for many

years to come.

Sincerely,

Michael J. Morecroft
President and Chief Executive Officer
Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc.

Consumer Safety Information

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic
safety precautions should be followed,
including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. To protect against risk of electrical

shock, do not put base, motor, cord,
or plug 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. Keep hands, hair, clothing, as well as

spatulas and other utensils out of con­tainer to prevent personal injury or
damage to the mixer.

7. 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 toll­free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or
electrical or mechanical adjustment.

8. The use of attachments not recom­mended or sold by Hamilton
Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc., may cause
fire, electrical shock, or injury.

9. Do not use outdoors.

10. Do not let cord hang over edge of

table or counter or touch hot surfaces.

11. Never add ingredients to container
while appliance is operating.

12. Container must be properly in place
before operating appliance.

13. To wash mixing shaft, unplug mixer
and follow the cleaning instructions
provided on page 7.

14. Do not use this appliance for other
than intended use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is intended for house­hold use only.

This appliance is equipped with a grounded­type 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This type
of plug will only fit into an electrical outlet
made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety
feature intended to help reduce the risk of
electrical shock. If the plug should fail to fit
contact a qualified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the grounding pin by
modifying the plug in any way.

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 drink mixer. Care must be taken to
arrange extension cord so that it will not
drape over countertop or tabletop where it
can be pulled on by children or accidental­ly tripped over.

drink mixer in working order? If
you have a circuit breaker box, be
sure the circuit is closed.

the items mentioned above, see

the retailer as they do not provide
