OVERHEAT PROTECTION SYSTEM
This blender has a motor heat protection system that will automatically shut off
the blender when the motor is overloaded or if the blender has been running too
long with a heavy load.
If this happens, unplug the blender and wait 15-20 minutes to allow the motor to
cool down. Plug in the blender and resume blending.
BLENDING TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
• Cut food into pieces no larger than ¾-inch for use in the blender.
• When preparing foods that have several different kinds of ingredients, always
add liquid ingredients first.
• When ingredients splatter onto the sides of the jar or the mixture is very thick,
press the OFF button to turn appliance off. Remove the lid and use a rubber
spatula to scrape down the sides of the jar and to redistribute the food pushing
food toward the blades. Replace the lid and continue blending.
• Appliance should always have cover in place when in use.
• Do not place blending jar on base when motor is running.
• The lid cap holds up to 2 oz. liquid and can be used as a measure and when
adding ingredients such as juices, milk, cream and liquor.
• When making bread crumbs, chopping nuts or grinding coffee beans make sure
blending jar is completely dry.
• When using PULSE function use short bursts. Allow the blades to stop rotating
between pulses. Do not use pulse for more than 1½ minutes.
• Use the PULSE button to begin the blending process when preparing
beverages that include ice cubes; this helps to produce a smoother texture.
• The PULSE function is helpful when short bursts of power are needed such
as when preparing thick smoothies or milkshakes, chopping nuts or grinding
coffee beans.
• It is helpful to begin the blending process on the lowest speed and then
increase to a higher speed, if necessary.
• To stop blending, press the OFF button at any time.
• When blending hot ingredients always let them cool at least 5 minutes before
blending. Before beginning to blend, remove the lid cap and put it back with the
opened side tilted away from you. Cover lid with a cloth to avoid splattering and
only use lowest speed. Do not blend more than 2½ to 3 cups at a time.

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.

not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts
inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be
provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available
and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord
or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance,

a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and

countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children
or tripped over.

qualified personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.
