GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS • For your protection, this appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor cord set. • 120 Volt units are supplied with a molded 3-prong groundingtype plug (NEMA 5-15P) and should be used in combination with a properly connected grounding type outlet as shown in Figure A. If a grounding type outlet is not available, an adapter, as shown in Figure B, may be utilized to enable a 2-slot wall outlet to be used with a 3-prong plug (except in Canada and Europe). As shown in Figure C, the adapter must be grounded by attaching its grounding lug under the screw of the outlet cover plate. Caution: Before using an adapter, you must be sure that the outlet cover plate screw is properly grounded. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician. Never use an adapter unless you are sure it is properly grounded. Note: Use of an adapter is not permitted in Canada and Europe. Green/Yellow: Earth/Ground. Blue: Neutral. Brown: Live. Note: User-installed cord set plugs are not permitted in Europe. This appliance is for 120 Volts only and should not be used with a converter. MX1000R (Model: MXMPBKP6) OPERATION 1.

IMPORTANT HOT BLENDING INSTRUCTIONS To minimize the possibility of being scalded when blending hot materials, the following precautions and procedure must be observed. • Hot materials are those that are 100°F (38°C) or hotter. • Limit the amount of materials processed to 1 pint. • Completely remove the center portion of the two-piece container lid before starting motor (this will allow venting of the rapidly heated and expanding air inside the container when blender is running). • Always start blending on lowest speed setting, and then progress to desired speed. • Never stand directly over blender when it is being started or while it is running. 5
