SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of re, electric shock, and/or injury to
persons, including the following:
• Read all instructions.
• 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 are closely supervised and instructed concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
• To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put cord, plug, base, or
motor in water or other liquid.
• Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning.
• Avoid contact with moving parts.
• 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
customer care center for information on examination, repair, or electrical or
mechanical adjustment.
• The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended or sold by
the appliance manufacturer may cause a risk of injury to persons.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces,
including stove.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• Keep hands and utensils out of the jar and away from the cutting blade, while
blending or chopping food, to reduce the risk of severe personal injury and/
or damage to the blender or available attachments (attachments may not be
provided with blender). A rubber spatula may be used but must be used only
when blender is not running.
• Blades are sharp; handle carefully—especially when assembling,
disassembling, or cleaning inside blender jar.
• Do not use a broken, chipped, or cracked blender jar.
• Do not use broken, cracked, or loose cutting blade assembly.
• Always operate blender with lid and emulsion cap assembly in place. Remove
emulsion cap assembly only for adding ingredients or to insert the tamper.
• When blending hot liquids or ingredients, remove center emulsion cap
assembly from the lid. Use caution: spray or excess steaming may cause
scalding and burns. Do not exceed the 6-cup (1420-ml) level. Always begin
processing on lowest speed. Keep hands and other exposed skin from the lid
opening to prevent possible burns.
• Ensure cutter assembly is tight and secure to jar. Injury can result if moving
blades accidentally become exposed.
• If the jar should twist or rotate when the motor is switched ON, switch OFF (O)
immediately and tighten jar in collar or on blender base.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS continued

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only. Use for food or liquids only.
WARNING
grounded (3-prong) plug to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a grounded outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug
by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit
into the outlet, 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.
The extension cord must be a grounding-type, 3-wire cord. 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 blade assembly locks and will not move, it will damage the motor.
Do not use. Call the customer care center for information.
Do not place blender jar in the freezer filled with food or liquid. This can result
in damage to the cutting blade assembly, jar, blender, and possibly result in
personal injury.
NOTE: This machine is equipped with motor overload protection. If the
motor stops during operation due to overheating, unplug and allow it to
cool down for approximately 15 minutes. Plug machine back in to resume
normal operation.
Electrical Shock Hazard: This product is provided with a
Wattage/Peak Power Information
The wattage/ampere rating of the blender is determined by an Underwriters
Laboratory test and is based on available cutting blade assembly, jar
combinations, and attachments that may not be provided with your unit, but
are available as replacement parts. This is a measure of input wattage/amperes
after 30 seconds of operation. The blender as provided may draw significantly
less power.
Peak power is the measure of the motor wattage during the first seconds
of operation. This is when a blender requires the most power to crush ice,
frozen fruit, etc. This is a better measure of what a blender motor can
consume when power is needed most.

How to Use Tamper
Tips
The tamper helps blend very thick and/or
frozen mixtures. Use the tamper to remove
trapped air bubbles if mixture stops
circulating, or to move ingredients from
jar corners into the blade. ONLY use the
tamper with the jar lid in place.
1. Remove emulsion cap assembly. Insert
tamper through hole in blender lid.
2. Blender jar should not be more than
two-thirds full when the tamper is used
during blending.
3. Do not use tamper with hot liquids.
4. If needed to help ingredients circulate,
point the tamper toward the sides or
corners of the container. Do not try
to force the tamper deeper into the
container and closer to the blades.
Automatic Overload Protection
The Wolf Gourmet Blender is equipped
with motor overload protection. If the
motor stops during operation due to
overheating, unplug and allow it to cool
down for about 15 minutes. Plug blender
back in to resume normal operation.
TIPS TO PREVENT OVERLOADING:
• Do not process recipes at lower speeds
or higher speeds than recommended.
• Do not process recipes longer than
recommended.
• Use tamper to process thicker mixtures
and keep ingredients moving around
and through the blades.
BLENDER TIPS:
• To add foods when blender is operating,
remove emulsion cap assembly and add
ingredients through the opening.
• For best performance, the minimum
amount of liquid needed per recipe
is one cup (8 ounces/237 ml). Add
more liquid if food is not blending
satisfactorily.
• If blending action stops during blending
or ingredients stick to sides of the jar,
insert tamper to help move the mixture
around or add more liquid to the
blender jar.
• Do not store food or liquids in the
blender jar.
• Avoid bumping or dropping the blender
when in operation or at any time.
• Cutting large whole fruits and
vegetables may blend more quickly.
• Do not ll blender jar past highest
graduation marking.
