IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

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

1.Read all instructions. Keep these instructions for future reference.

2.Verify that the voltage in your home corresponds to that of your appliance.

3.To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put cord, plug, base, or motor in or near water or other liquid.

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

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

6.Avoid contact with moving parts.

7.Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Contact an authorized service facility for information on examination, electrical repair, mechanical repair, or adjustment.

8.The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended or sold by Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc. may cause a

risk of injury to persons.

9.Do not use outdoors.

10.Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces, including the stove.

12.Blades are sharp, handle carefully.

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

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

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

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

This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.

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 blender. 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.

After unpacking the blender, wash everything except the blender base in hot, soapy water. Dry thoroughly. Do not place in dishwasher. Wipe the blender base with a damp cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE THE BASE IN WATER. Care should be taken when handling the blades as they are very sharp.

How to Assemble and Use

IMPORTANT: Your blender jar and cutting blades are subject to wear during normal use. Always inspect jar for nicks, chips or cracks. Always inspect cutting blades for broken, cracked or loose blades. If jar or cutting blades are damaged, do

not use. Contact an authorized service facility to obtain replacement parts.

1.Make sure blender is unplugged. Place blender base on clean, dry surface to keep foreign particles from being pulled up into motor during operation.

2.Place blades in retaining ring. Fit gasket over blades. The gasket must lie flat. Set jar on top of gasket and screw on retaining ring.

3.Make sure the retaining ring is firmly screwed onto the jar. If not, it may loosen later when motor is turned on.

4.Set jar into place on blender base, making sure it is securely seated. If not, gently rock the jar until seated.

5.Plug cord into outlet.

6.Put ingredients in jar, place lid on jar.
