CAUTION: lids and tampers are not interchangeable
between different container styles, types and sizes.
2 64-oz./2 L capacity container with 2-part lid:
• Always use the lid and the lid plug when the machine is
operating.
• Never operate the blender without the lid securely
locked in place.
• Ounces, Millilitres and Cups are clearly marked.
• Insert the lid plug through the lid and secure by turning
clockwise.
• Remove the lid plug to use the tamper or to add
ingredients.
3 Tamper: using the tamper maintains circulation by
preventing air pockets from forming.
4 Two Piece Lid: (lid and lid plug)
To Lock the lid in place: the lid must always be secured
when processing, especially hot liquids that may scald.
Never operate the blender without the lid securely locked
in place. The lid has a continuous rim which latches inside
the container tabs. Push one side of the rim under one tab
and push down over the opposite tab to snap the lid into
position.
To Remove the Lid: place hands around the lid, pressing
thumbs above one of the container tabs. Push in and lift off.
To Remove the Lid Plug: rotate the lid plug counterclockwise
from the "locked" to "unlocked" position and lift out.
5 Power Cord: the blender's power cord comes equipped with
a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
three-prong wall outlet. This cord will vary for countries
outside the United States of America.
Adapters are available for two-prong outlets. Do not cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the plug or power cord.
Consult your electrician if you are not sure if the wall outlet
is grounded through the building wiring. With a properly
grounded two-prong wall outlet, ground the machine by
attaching the tab on the adapter to the wall outlet cover by
means of the screw in the centre of the cover.
