IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

• To protect against electrical hazards, do not immerse the cord, plug or motor base
in water or other liquids.

• Always use the product on a clean, flat, hard, dry surface. There should be no
material such as a tablecloth or plastic between the unit and surface.

• Flashing light indicates blender is ready to operate. Avoid ANY contact with the
blades or moveable parts.

• Keep hands and utensils out of jar while blending to reduce the risk of injury or
damage to the blender. A scraper may be used but must be used only when the
blender is not running.

• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance
malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to
the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or electrical or
mechanical adjustment.

• Return the product to your nearest Authorized OST ER® Appliance Service Center
for a safety check, adjustment or repair.

• The blender blades are sharp. Handle carefully.

• To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutter-assembly blades on base without jar
properly attached.

• Always put the lid on the jar before operating the blender.

• When blending hot liquids beware of steam. Remove the filler cap from the lid to
allow steam to escape.

• Do not use outdoors.

• Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces or hang over the edge of a table or
counter.

• Unplug the blender when it is not in use, before taking off or putting on parts, and
before cleaning. To disconnect, turn appliance off by pressing ON/Off button and
remove plug from outlet.

• Never leave the appliance unattended while it is running.

• Supervise children closely when they use or are nearby appliances.

• Do not blend boiling liquids in the blender.

• The use of attachments, including canning or ordinary jar and processing assembly
parts is not recommended by the manufacturer, and may cause a risk of injury to
persons.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This ProducT is for household use only

Note: The maximum rating marked on the product is based on the attachment

that draws the greatest load. Other attachments may draw less power.

POLARIZED PLUG

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 fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug
in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC
outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.

Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the
appliance (labeled on the appliance). Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine
extension cord before using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and
do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat and sharp edges. The
extension must be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop,
will not be within the reach of children, and will not be tripped over.

Extension Cords

Power Cord Instructions:

Please follow the instructions below to ensure the safe use of the power cord.

• Try to position the blender near the power source to reduce the hazards
associated with power cords (such as becoming entangled or tripping over a
long power cord).

• Do not pull, twist or other wise abuse the power cord.

• Do not wrap the power cord around the main body of the blender during or
after use.

1. Clean Blender according to the instructions in the “Cleaning and Storing

Your Blender” section. (Page 7)

2. Turn Blender Jar upside down so the small opening is at the top. (Figure 1)

3. Place Sealing Ring over Blender Jar opening. (Figure 2)

4. Place Blade System into Blender Jar. (Figure 3)

5. Place the Threaded Bottom Cap on Blender Jar and turn it clockwise to

tighten. (Figure 4)

6. Place Blender Jar assembly onto Blender Base. (Figure 5)

7. Line up tabs on Blender Base. Make sure the tab on the jar (near the

handle) is in front of the tab on the Blender Base. (Figure 6) Blender Jar
should now be seated into position.

8. Place ingredients into Blender Jar.

NOTE: For best results, always add liquids first when blending, unless

a recipe says otherwise.

9. Place Blender Lid with Filler Cap on Blender Jar.
