OSTER’S SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR OSTER.

• Ensure fingers are kept well away from the
blades when in use.

• Do not blend warm/hot ingredients. Always
cool ingredients to room temperature before
processing.

• Always operate on a flat surface.

• Take care when removing the jar or during fitting
and removal of blade system, as blades are
extremely sharp.

• Switch off the appliance and disconnect
from supply before changing accessories or
approaching parts that move in use.

Oster is very safety conscious when designing

and manufacturing consumer products, but it is
essential that the product user also exercise care
when using an electrical appliance. Listed below
are precautions which are essential for the safe
use of an electrical appliance:

• Read carefully and save all the instructions
provided with an appliance.

• Always turn the power off at the power outlet
before you insert or remove a plug. Remove by
grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.

• Turn the power off and remove the plug when
the appliance is not in use and before cleaning.

• Do not use your appliance with an extension
cord unless this cord has been checked and
tested by a qualified technician or service
person.

• Always use your appliance from a power
outlet of the voltage (A.C. only) marked on the
appliance.

• This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.

• The temperature of accessible surfaces may be
high when the appliance is operating.

• Never leave an appliance unattended while
in use.

• Do not use an appliance for any purpose other
than its intended use.

• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot gas
flame, electric element or on a heated oven.

• Do not place on top of any other appliance.

• Do not let the power cord of an appliance hang
over the edge of a table or bench top or touch
any hot surface.

• Do not operate any electrical appliance with
a damaged cord or after the appliance has
been damaged in any manner. If damage is
suspected, return the appliance to the nearest
Oster Appointed Service Centre for examination,
repair or adjustment.

• For additional protection, Oster recommend
the use of a residual current device (RCD) with
a tripping current not exceeding 30mA in the
electrical circuit supplying power to
your appliances.

• Do not immerse the appliance in water or any
other liquid unless recommended.

• Appliances are not intended to be operated by
means of an external timer or separate remote
control system.

• This appliance is intended to be used in
household and similar applications such as: staff
kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working

Cover

The cover for your OSTERTM Blender
consists of two parts, the plastic feeder
cap (1) and the cover (2).
The cover is self-sealing and is resistant
to absorption of odors and stains.
The feeder cap is removable for use as a
measuring cup and provides an opening
for the addition of other ingredients.

Container

The jar (3) for the Blender is graduated
for easy measurement and is constructed
from heat and cold resistant material. The
convenient handle and pouring lip permit
easy removal of liquid mixtures while
thicker mixtures are more easily removed
through the bottom opening.

Threaded Bottom Cap

Threaded Bottom Cap (4) with Ice Crush
Blade pulverizes ice for smooth frozen
drinks.

Motor and Motor Base

The powerful multi-speed motor is the
heart of the appliance and is designed
just for this unit. It is completely enclosed
within the housing (5). The motor uses a
“free-floating” feature to reduce noise
and wear. This allows the square post
which protrudes from the motor base
to move slightly from side to side. The
powerful food processing motor can be
overloaded. To avoid this possibility,
closely follow the instructions in this book.

Speed Control

This blender has 3 speed settings: Low
(I)-Med (II)-High (III). Operate at High
on toughest ingredients and achieve the
finest result.

NOTE: DO NOT operate blender at any
setting continuously for more than 3
minutes.
