Before using the Quik Stik Plus ^™ , Waring suggests that you wipe the unit with a clean, damp cloth to remove any dirt or dust.

INTENDED USE

The Waring ^® Quik Stik Plus ^® Immersion Blender is intended for use in restaurants, large kitchens and small companies when mixing and liquefying. You can operate directly in the pot to mix everything from soups, stews, creams and salad dressings to pancake mixes, pastes, sauces, mayonnaise and much, much more.
