37. CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent

Use for food or liquids only. w WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet. The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over. If the cutting blade assembly locks and will 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 can result in damage to the cutting blade assembly, jar, blender, and possibly result in personal injury. The wattage/ampere rating of the blender is determined by an Underwriters Laboratory test and is based on available cutting blade assembly, jar combinations, and attachments that may not be provided with your unit, but are available as replacement parts. This is a measure of input wattage/amperes after 30 seconds of operation. Peak power is the measure of the motor wattage during the first seconds of operation. This is when a blender requires the most power to crush ice, frozen fruit, etc. This is a better measure of what a blender motor can consume when power is needed most. Wattage/Peak Power Information5 S-Blade Food Chopper Attachment (optional accessory on select models) Lid Chopper Bowl Bowl Base Parts and Features Cord Stuff Storage (located on bottom of base) BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash everything except blender base in hot, soapy water. Dry thoroughly. Wipe blender base with a damp cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE BASE IN WATER. Care should be taken when handling cutting blade assembly as it is very sharp.

• For a more uniform consistency, start with pieces of food that are similar in size. Cut food into 1-inch (2.5-cm) pieces before processing with chopping/ mixing blade.

• This food processor is excellent to chop, mix, slice, or shred most foods. However, to maintain peak performance, do not use your food processor for the following: grinding grain, coffee beans, or spices; slicing frozen meats; kneading dough; or crushing ice.

• When chopping foods, pulsing on and off will produce the best results.

• Operating time will depend on quantity of food being processed. Most foods can be sliced, chopped, or shredded in seconds. If unit is operated continuously for an extended period of time, let the processor rest about 4 minutes before continuing.

• Do not puree or mash starchy vegetables like potatoes as they are easily overprocessed and will become gummy.

• To slice or shred cheese, use only firm cheese like cheddar, Monterey Jack, or Swiss that has been chilled for at least 30 minutes.

• The reversible slicing/shredding disc has a slicing blade on one side and shredding teeth on the other side. The name engraved on the blade, facing up, is the function selected. For slicing, the word “SLICE” should face up; for shredding, the word “SHRED” should face up. Place on motor shaft with desired cutting edge facing up.

• To julienne vegetables, slice, remove from bowl, and restack the vegetables. Pack into food chute with slices vertical. Slice again to make matchstick-cut vegetables.
