CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always unplug your Cuisinart ® PowerEdge ® 700-Watt Blender
from the electrical outlet before cleaning. The blender is made of
corrosion-resistant parts that are easy to clean. Before first use and
after every use, clean each part thoroughly. Periodically check all parts
before reassembly. If any part is damaged or blender jar is chipped or
cracked, DO NOT USE BLENDER.
Remove the blender jar from the motor base by lifting straight up and away.
Invert the jar. Twist off the locking ring by turning counterclockwise.
Remove the cutting assembly and rubber gasket. Wash in warm soapy
water; rinse and dry thoroughly.
Place the locking ring in the upper rack of the dishwasher or wash in
warm water.
CAUTION: Handle the cutting assembly carefully. It is SHARP and may
cause injury. Do not attempt to remove blades from cutting assembly.
Remove the blender jar cover and the measured pour lid. Wash in warm,
soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly, or place in upper rack of dishwasher.
The blender jar must be washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed and dried
thoroughly. The blender jar can also be placed upside down in dishwasher.
Finally, wipe the motor base clean with a damp cloth to remove any residue,
and dry thoroughly. Never submerge the motor base in water or other liquid,
or place in a dishwasher.
Tip: You may wish to clean your blender cutting assembly as follows:
Squirt a small amount of dishwashing liquid into assembled blender jar
and fill halfway with warm water. Run on Low for 15 seconds. Repeat, using
clean tap water. Empty blender jar and carefully disassemble parts. Wash
cutting assembly, gasket and locking ring in warm, soapy water. Rinse and
dry all parts thoroughly.
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service
representative.
DOs and DON’Ts WHEN USING YOUR BLENDER
Do:
• Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that stated
on the bottom of the blender motor base.
• Always use the blender on a clean, sturdy and dry surface.
• Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then add
remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are
uniformly mixed.
