USER MANUAL BLP7600BDC BLACK & DECKER

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: q Read all instructions. q To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put blender base, cord, or plug in water or other liquid. q Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. q Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. q Avoid contacting moving parts. q Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment. Or, call the appropriate toll-free number listed on the cover of this manual. q The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury. q Do not use outdoors. q Do not let the plug or cord hang over the edge of table or counter. q Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender. A scraper may be used but must be used only when the blender is not running. q Blades are sharp. Handle carefully. q To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutter assembly blades on base without the jar properly attached. q Always operate blender with cover in place. q When blending hot liquids, remove center piece of two-piece cover. q Do not use appliance for other than intended use. IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only) This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. ELECTRICAL CORD The cord of this appliance was selected to reduce the possibility of tangling in or tripping over a longer cord. If more length is needed, use an extension cord rated no less than 15-amperes. (For 220 volts rated products, use an extension cord rated no less than 6-amperes). When using an extension cord, do not let it drape over the working area or dangle where someone could accidentally trip over it. Handle cord carefully for longer life; avoid jerking or straining it at outlet and appliance connections. TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning : This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent

removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel. Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel or in Latin America by an authorized service center.4
