Ordering Accessories and Replacement Parts

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Unplug before servicing.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

Troubleshooting Problems

If your Immersion Blender should malfunction or fail to operate, please check the following:

1. Is the Immersion Blender plugged in?

2. Is the fuse in the circuit to the Immersion Blender in working order? If you have a circuit breaker box, be sure the circuit is closed.

3. Turn Immersion Blender off for 10-15 seconds, then turn Immersion Blender back on.

If the problem cannot be corrected with the above steps, see the KitchenAid Warranty on page 3. Do not return the Immersion Blender to the retailer; retailers do not provide service.

Electrical Requirements

Volts: 120 A.C. only. Hertz: 60 The amperage rating for your blender

is located on the serial plate. The maximum rating is based on the attachment that draws the greatest load. Other recommended attachments may draw significantly less current.

NOTE: This Immersion Blender has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

Extension cords are available and may be used if special care is exercised in their use.

If a long extension cord is used:

• The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

• The cord should be arranged so it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled by children or tripped over unintentionally.
