Before First Use
After unpacking the blender, wash everything except the
blender base in hot, soapy water. Dry thoroughly. Do not place
in dishwasher. Wipe the blender base with a damp cloth or
sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE THE BASE IN WATER. Care
should be taken when handling the blades as they are very
sharp.
How to Assemble and Use
IMPORTANT: Your blender jar and cutting blades are subject
to wear during normal use. Always inspect jar for nicks, chips
or cracks. Always inspect cutting blades for broken, cracked
or loose blades. If jar or cutting blades are damaged, do
not use. Contact an authorized service facility to obtain
replacement parts.
1. Make sure blender is unplugged. Place blender base on
clean, dry surface to keep foreign particles from being
pulled up into motor during operation.
2. Place blades in retaining ring. Fit gasket over blades. The
gasket must lie flat. Set jar on top of gasket and screw on
retaining ring.
3. Make sure the retaining ring is firmly screwed onto the jar.
If not, it may loosen later when motor is turned on.
4. Set jar into place on blender base, making sure it is
securely seated. If not, gently rock the jar until seated.
5. Plug cord into outlet.
6. Put ingredients in jar, place lid on jar.

If the cutting unit blades lock and do not move, it will damage the
motor. Do not use. Call the toll-free customer service number for
information.
Do not place blender jar in the freezer filled with food or liquid. This
will freeze and damage the cutting unit, jar, and motor.
