IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

12. Keep hands and utensils out of the jar and away from the
cutting blade, while blending or chopping food, to reduce the
risk of severe personal injury and/or damage to the blender
(attachments may not be provided with blender). A rubber
spatula may be used but only when blender is not running.
13. Blades are sharp; handle carefully—especially when assembling,
disassembling, or cleaning inside blender jar.
14. Do not use a broken, chipped, or cracked blender jar.
15. Do not use broken, cracked, or loose cutting blade assembly.
16. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade assembly
on base without blender jar properly attached.
17. Always operate blender with lid in place.
18. When blending hot liquids, remove filler-cap and close the
edge cover opening intended for pouring. To prevent possible
burns: Do not exceed the 3-cup (710-ml) level. Hot liquids may
push off lid during blending; therefore, with the protection of an
oven mitt or thick towel, place one hand on top of the lid, keep
exposed skin away from the lid, and start blending at lowest
speed.
19. Be careful if hot liquid is poured into the blender as it can be
ejected out of the appliance due to a sudden steaming.
20. Ensure cutter assembly is tight and secure to jar. Injury can
result if moving blades accidentally become exposed.
21. If the jar should twist or rotate when the motor is switched
ON, switch OFF ( ) immediately and tighten jar in collar or on
blender base.
22. Do not leave blender unattended while it is operating.
