IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

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

1. Read all instructions.

2. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put cord, plug,

or base in or near water or other liquid.

3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children.

4. Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning.

5. Avoid contact with moving parts.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or

after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any
manner. Call our toll free customer service number for information
on examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

7. The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended
or sold by appliance manufacturer may cause a risk of injury to
persons.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot

surfaces, including the stove.

10. Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to
reduce the risk of severe personal injury and/or damage to
blender. A rubber spatula may be used but must be used only
when blender is not running.

11. Blades are sharp; handle carefully–especially when cleaning
inside blender jar.

12. Do not use a broken, chipped or cracked blender jar.

13. Do not use broken, cracked or loose cutting blades.

14. Always operate blender with lid in place.

15. When blending hot liquids, remove center-piece of two-piece lid.

possible burns: do not fill blender jar beyond the 3 cup (750 ml)
level. With the protection of an oven mitt or thick towel, place
one hand on top of lid. Keep exposed skin away from lid. Start
blending at lowest speed.

OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only. Use for food
or liquids only.

WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug

(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug
fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or using an
adaptor. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over, a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension
cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must
be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be
taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children
or accidentally tripped over.

If the cutting blades lock and do not move, it will damage the motor.
Do not use. Call the toll-free customer service number for information.

Do not place blender jar in the freezer filled with food or liquid. The
contents may freeze and may result in damage to the cutting blades,
jar, blender and possibly result in personal injury.

How to Clean the Blender

1. Unplug blender from electrical outlet.

2. Wipe blender base, control knob, and cord with a damp

cloth or sponge. To remove stubborn spots, use a mild,
non-abrasive cleanser.

3. Carefully wash jar, filler-cap, and lid in hot, soapy water.
Do not attempt to disassemble blade from jar. Care should
be taken when handling the blades as they are very sharp.
Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not soak. These parts may

also be washed in a dishwasher.

4. Store blender with lid ajar to prevent container odor.

General Tips

• For best blending performance, the minimum amount of

liquid recommended per recipe is 10 ounces (300 ml).
Add more liquid if food is not blending properly.

• To add foods when blender is operating, remove filler-cap

from container lid and add ingredients through opening.

• If blending action stops during blending or ingredients stick

to sides of the jar, turn blender OFF. Remove lid and use a
rubber spatula to push mixture toward blades.

• Do not try to mash potatoes, mix stiff dough, whip egg

whites, grind raw meat, or extract juices from fruits and
vegetables. The blender is not made to perform these tasks.

• Do not store food or liquids in the blender jar.

• Avoid bumping or dropping the blender.
