• When mixing liquids, especially hot liquids, use a
tall container or use a small quantity at a time to
avoid splattering or burning.

blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to
persons or damage to the blender. A scraper may
be used but must be used only when the blender
is not.

POWER CORD SAFETY TIPS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the
hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over
a longer cord. This appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of
electric shock, this plug is intended to t into a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t
fully into the outlet, reverse the plug and try again. If it
still does not t, contact a qualied electrician. Do not
attempt to modify the plug in any way.
• DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE CORD
SHOWS ANY DAMAGE, OR IF APPLIANCE WORKS
INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
• Never pull or yank on the cord or the appliance.
• To insert the plug, grasp it rmly and guide it into
the outlet.
• To disconnect the appliance, grasp the plug and
remove it from the outlet.
• Before each use, inspect the cord for cuts and
abrasion marks. If any are found, the blender should
be replaced.
• Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance,
as this could place undue stress on the cord where
it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and
break.
• An extension cord may be used with care. However,
the marked electrical rating shall be at least as great
as the electrical rating of this appliance. The
extension cord should not be allowed to drape over
the tabletop where it can be pulled on by children
or tripped over.
