Before First

UserAfter unpacking the blender, wash everything

except the blender base in hot, soapy water. Dry thoroughly. Wipe the

blender base with a damp cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE THE

BASE IN WATER. Care should be taken when handling the cutting

blades as they are very sharp.

How to Assemble and Use

Operating Instructions

Before starting, make sure that the blender cord is unplugged and

that the power switch, located on the middle of the blender base, is

in the OFF position.

Check the jar to be certain that the cutting blade assembly, jar

gasket, and cutting blade assembly gasket are in the proper

positions.

(1) Cutting blade assembly must be securely tightened to the jar

before placing food or liquid in the jar.

(2) Tighten the cutting blade assembly by holding the jar upside

down and rotating the cutting blade assembly clockwise.

Place the jar assembly on the blender base so that it is firmly

seated and not tilted to one side. Never place the blade assembly

on the blender base without the jar being completely assembled

and securely tightened.

Add ingredients to be processed, and place lid on the jar. Be sure

lid is fully seated.

Be sure the power switch is still in the OFF position, and plug the

blender into the wall outlet.

Turn the Speed Control Knob to your desired setting. The speed

can be changed at any time during the blending process. For

ingredients that require short bursts of power, use PULSE setting.

Always be sure to switch the power switch to the OFF position

when you are not blending.

How to Clean

Cleaning

• Before cleaning, be sure that the unit is off and cord is unplugged

from outlet.

• Whenever possible, rinse filler cap and lid immediately after

processing to make cleanup easier. Do not immerse the motor base

in liquid.

• If washing the jar by hand, wash in hot, soapy water, rinse, and

dry thoroughly. If necessary, use a nylon bristle brush to thoroughly

clean the jar.

• Do not use rough scouring pads or cleansers on any plastic or metal

parts.

• Do not fill the jar with boiling water. Do not place any of the parts

in boiling water.

• Do not allow the blade assembly in the jar to soak in water for long

periods of time.

CAUTION - DO NOT IMMERSE THE BASE IN ANY LIQUID
