Grounding Instructions The Tailgater™ Blender includes an AC converter for home use. For your protection, the AC converter has a 3-conductor cordset with a molded 3-prong grounding-type plug, for use with a properly connected grounding-type outlet as shown in Figure 1. If a grounding-type outlet is not available, an adapter, as shown in Figure 2, may be obtained so that a 2-slot wall outlet can be used with a 3-prong plug. As shown in Figure 3, the adapter must be grounded by attaching its grounding lug under the screw of the outlet cover plate. CAUTION: Before using an adapter, it must be determined 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. Important: Hot Blending Instructions To minimize possibility of being scalded when blending hot ingredients, the following precautions and procedures must be observed: 1. Begin blending with no more than one cup (8 oz.) of ingredients. 2. Before turning blender on, remove the center lid insert. This will allow venting of the rapidly heated and expanding air. 3. Start blending on low speed. 4. While blender is running, up to 1½ cups (12 oz.) of additional liquid can be added. Pour liquid slowly through the opening in the lid. 4 Operating Instructions 1. When placing the container on the unit base, make sure that the unit is turned to OFF and is at a complete stop. Do not put the container on or take it off while the unit is running. Doing so may damage the drive shaft or blade assembly. For best results, do not fill container above 3-cup level. 2. With the switch in the OFF position, plug the blender into a 12 Volt car outlet. 3. The Waring Pro® Tailgater™ Blender is ideal for blending ice drinks. For best results, keep the blades covered with liquid, turn the unit to ON, remove the lid insert, and feed the ice cubes slowly into the container. NOTE: Never use containers other than Waring Pro® Blender containers with your Waring unit. 4. CAUTION: DO NOT use carbonated liquids in the blender jar or any blending container. Using carbonated liquids in the blender jar or any blending container may result in injury. 5. For other blending tasks, put ingredients into container, then put the lid on firmly. Always add liquid ingredients first, unless otherwise specified in recipe. Always hold container with one hand while blending. 5
