840141300 Blender 12/20/05 11:23 AM Page 6 BEFORE FIRST USE After unpacking the blender, wash everything except the blender base in hot, soapy water. Dry thoroughly. Wipe the blender base with a damp cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE THE BASE IN WATER. Care should be taken when handling the cutting blades as they are very sharp. CONTROL PANEL First select and push a LOW or HIGH power button then push desired speed button. The blender will run until you push the OFF button. The OFF button is also the Ice Breaker™/Pulse Button. When using Pulse or IceBreaker, the blender will only run as long as the button is pushed. As buttons are pushed left to right, the speed at which the blades spin will increase. 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. Call our toll-free customer service number to obtain replacement parts. I Make sure blender is unplugged. Place blender base on clean, dry surface to keep foreign particles from being pulled up into motor during operation. I Place cutting blades in Sure Rest™ jar base. Set jar on top of cutting blades and tighten on jar base. I Make sure the Sure Rest™ jar base is firmly screwed onto the jar. If not, it may loosen later when motor is turned on. 6
