SAFETY FEATURES

POLARIZED PLUG (120V models only)
This appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug is
intended to fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do
not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped
with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent
removal of the outer cover. To reduce
the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
attempt to remove the outer cover. There
are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Repair should be done only by authorized
service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
1) A short power-supply cord is provided to
reduce the risk resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
PLEASE READ AND SAVE THIS USE AND CARE BOOK.
This product is for household use only.
• Keep hands and utensils out of container while
blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons
or damage to the blender. A scraper may be used but
must be used only when the blender is not running.
• Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
• To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutter
assembly blades on base without the jar
properly attached.
• Do not blend hot foods or liquids.
• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
• 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 have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
2) Longer detachable power cords or
extension cords are available and may
be used if care is exercised in their use.
3) If a long detachable power-supply cord
or extension cord is used,
a) The marked electrical rating of the
extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the
appliance,
b) The longer cord should be arranged so
that it will not drape over the countertop
or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.
Note: If the power cord is damaged,
please contact the warranty department
listed in these instructions.
Note: The maximum rating is based on
the personal blender jar that draws the
greatest load (power or current) and the
other recommended attachments may
draw significantly less power or current.
