IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following: 1. Read all instructions. 2. 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. 3. 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. 4. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put cord, plug, base, or motor in water or other liquid. 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 supply cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Supply cord replacement and repairs must be conducted by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. Call the provided customer service number for information on examination, repair, or adjustment. 8. The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer 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 stove. 11. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven. 12. 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. 13. Blades are sharp; handle carefully-especially when assembling, disassembling, or cleaning inside blender jar. 14. Do not use a broken, chipped, or cracked blender jar. 15. Do not use broken, cracked, or loose cutting blade assembly. 16. Always operate blender with lid and filler-cap in place. Remove filler-cap only for adding ingredients or to insert the tamper. 17. When blending hot liquids or ingredients, remove filler-cap 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. 18. Ensure cutter assembly is tight and secure to jar. Injury can result if moving blades accidentally become exposed. 19. If the jar should twist or rotate when the motor is switched ON, switch OFF ( ) immediately and tighten jar in collar or on blender base. 20. Do not leave blender unattended while it is operating. 21. Before plugging cord into wall outlet, turn off the appliance. To disconnect cord, turn the control to OFF ( ). Then remove plug from wall outlet. 22. Do not use appliance for other than intended purpose. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS! 2
