Other Consumer Safety Information This appliance is intended for household use only. Use for food or liquids only. w WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided with a grounded (3-prong) plug to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a grounded 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 into the outlet, 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. The extension cord must be a grounding-type, 3-wire cord. 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 customer care center 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. NOTE: This machine is equipped with motor overload protection. If the motor stops during operation due to overheating, unplug and allow it to cool down for approximately 15 minutes. Plug machine back in to resume normal operation. 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. The blender as provided may draw significantly less power. 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 Information

23. Check that the appliance is OFF ( ) before plugging cord into wall

outlet. To disconnect, turn the control to OFF ( ); then remove plug from wall outlet. To unplug, grasp the plug and pull from the outlet. Never pull from the power cord.

24. Do not use appliance for other than intended purpose.

25. CAUTION! In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting

of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.

26. Ensure collar on base of blender jar and travel jar is tight and secure.

Injury can result if moving blades accidentally become exposed.

27. Do not blend hot liquids in the travel jar.

28. Be careful if hot liquid is poured into the blender container as it can

Wipe blender base, control panel, and cord with a damp cloth or sponge. To remove stubborn spots, use a mild, nonabrasive cleanser.

Wash all removable parts in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry to maintain appearance. Care should be taken when handling the cutting blade assembly since it is very sharp. Cleaning Your Blender (cont.)

Blender fails to start. • Make sure control knob is not in the (OFF) position.

• Check to see if the unit is securely plugged into an electrical outlet of proper voltage and frequency.

• Check to see if fuse for electrical outlet has blown or if circuit breaker has tripped. Unit does not respond to button commands.

• Turn power off and back on using control knob to reset controls.

• If unit does not respond, call our customer care center at 1.800.851.8900 in the U.S. or 1.800.267.2826 in Canada. Blender smells like it is burning.

• Turn unit to (OFF) and allow to cool.

• Although motors are tested during the manufacturing process, heavy use may cause curing of motor windings. The smell may quickly dissipate after a few heavy uses.

• If smell continues after additional heavy uses, call our customer care center at 1.800.851.8900 in the U.S. or 1.800.267.2826 in Canada. There is grease around the bottom of the blender jar or on the counter top.

• Monitor the problem and source. This may indicate an issue with the jar bearings.

• Call our customer care center at 1.800.851.8900 in the U.S. or 1.800.267.2826 in Canada if the condition persists. Blender jar is cloudy or stained. How can I clean it?

• Some cloudiness may be natural after use. The minerals from fruits, produce, and leafy greens, in addition to the oils of various nut butters, can sometimes cause a film on the blender jar.

• Sprinkle 2 tablespoons (30 ml) baking soda in blender. Add 1/2 cup (118 ml) white vinegar. Mixture will bubble. When bubbling subsides, add 1 cup (237 ml) water and blend on the CLEAN cycle. Wash any remaining residue with dish soap and water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
