Other Consumer Safety Information This appliance is intended for household use only. Use for food or liquids only. w WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided with a 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. 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. 3
