IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put cord, plug,
base, or motor in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children.
4. Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug,
or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged
in any manner. Call our toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical
adjustment.
7. The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended
or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause a risk of injury
to persons.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot
surfaces, including stove.
10. Keep hands and utensils out of jar while blending to reduce the
risk of severe personal injury and/or damage to blender. A rubber
spatula may be used but must be used only when blender is not
running.
11. Blades are sharp; handle carefully – especially when assembling,
disassembling, or cleaning inside blender jar.
12. Do not use a broken, chipped, or cracked blender jar.
13. Do not use broken, cracked, or loose cutting blade assembly.
14. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade assembly
on base without jar properly attached.
15. Always operate blender with lid in place.
