6.3 CLEANING TIPS AND CAUTIONS
• Do not use stiff bristled brushes or abrasive cloths/pads to clean the blender base
or jar, as this will dull or scratch the surface�
• NEVER submerge the blender motor in water� Avoid submerging blender jars for
more than 5 minutes� Water penetration through the lower jar seals will reduce the
life of the jar� After cleaning, we recommend the blender jar be stored upright�
• BLENDER JAR IS DISHWASHER SAFE—TOP RACK ONLY! Extreme temperatures
damage the lower seal of the jar� We recommend hand washing to prolong the
life of the blender jar� We do not recommend the jar be used for temperatures
above boiling (212°F, 100°C)�
