SAFETY WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES
Please read this entire manual before using this device, paying extra attention to these
safety warnings and guidelines. Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
This device is intended for indoor use only. Do not immerse the base in water. If it does fall into water, immediately unplug it
and allow it to dry completely before attempting to use it again. If the base needs
cleaning, wipe the outside with a cloth dampened in warm water.
Do not touch the device, the power cord, or any other connected cables with wet
hands.
Wash the blending jug, lid, and blades with soap and warm water after each use.
Allow the parts to fully dry before storing them.
Prior to operation, check the unit and power cord for physical damage. Do not use if
physical damage has occurred.
Before plugging the unit into a power outlet, ensure that the outlet provides the
same type and level of power required by the device.
This device uses a grounded power cord and requires a ground connection for safe
operation. Ensure that the power source has a proper ground connection. Do not
modify the plug or use a "cheater" plug to bypass the ground connection.
Unplug the blender when not actively blending food or beverages. Unplug the blender prior to cleaning it. Take care to prevent damage to the power cord. Do not allow it to become
crimped, pinched, walked on, or become tangled with other cords. Ensure that the
power cord does not present a tripping hazard.
Never unplug the unit by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp the connector
head or adapter body.
This device has no user serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open, service, or
modify this device.
Do not leave the blender unattended while it is in use.
