POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug — one blade is wider than the
other. As a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse it and try
again. If it still does not fit, contact an electrician. Do not attempt to
defeat this safety feature.
■ Do not use outdoors.
■ The use of attachments including canning jars not recommended
or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric
shock, or injury.
BLENDER JAR ASSEMBLY
1. Before first use, wash all parts except the Unit Base. Put the Gasket on
top of the Blade Assembly.
2. Place the Blade Assembly into the Jar Base and turn the Jar Base
clockwise until tight.
■ Never carry the unit by the cord or yank cord from an outlet.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
■ Do not let the plug or cord hang over the edge of table or
counter, or touch hot surfaces including the stove. Unit should be
placed away from sinks and hot surfaces.
3. Interlock System: Place the assembled Jar onto the Unit Base and turn
toward lock ( )until secured in place. You’ve engaged the Interlock
System if you lift the Jar Handle and the entire blender lifts together as
one unit.
This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent
removal of the bottom cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock,
do not attempt to remove the bottom cover. There are no user serviceable
parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.
■ Remove the Jar and Blade Assembly from the blender before
washing.
ELECTRICAL CORD
The cord length of this appliance was selected to reduce safety hazards that
may occur with a longer cord. If more cord length is needed, an extension
cord may be used. It should be rated not less than 10 amperes, 120 volts,
and should have Underwriters Laboratories listing. When using a longer
cord, be sure that it does not drape over a working area or dangle where it
could be pulled on or tripped over.
■ Unit should be used for food/beverage preparation only.
■ Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending.
■ Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
■ Avoid contacting moving parts. Always operate blender with Lid
in place.
