PRODUCT SAFETY

12. Keep hands and utensils other than the provided tamper, out of container while

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.

13. Blades are sharp. Care should be taken when handling the sharp cutting blades,
emptying the jar and during cleaning.

14. Be careful if hot liquid is poured into the blender as it can be ejected out of the
appliance due to sudden steaming.

15. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.

16. Refer to the “Care and Cleaning” section for instructions on cleaning the
surfaces in contact with food.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

MOTOR HORSEPOWER

Motor horsepower for the blender motor was measured using a dynamometer, a machine
that laboratories routinely use to measure the mechanical power of motors. Our 1.5 peak
horsepower (HP) motor reference reflects the horsepower output of the motor itself and not
the Blender’s horsepower output in the blender jar. As with any blender, the power output in
the jar is not the same as the horsepower of the motor itself.
