WARNING
To avoid possible burns, NEVER start on speeds above Variable
Speed 1 when processing hot liquids in a large container.
Escaping steam, splashes or contents may burn. ALWAYS start on
Variable Speed 1, then slowly increase to 10.
NEVER use your 20 ounce cup to heat ingredients or to blend hot
liquids. Heated ingredients and liquids may create internal pressure
which could cause the cup to burst and cause injury.
NEVER continuously use your appliance for more than 2 minutes with
the 20 ounce cup and Personal Cup Adapter.
If a cup becomes warm to the touch or steams or vents, immediately
stop blending ingredients and turn off or unplug blender. Allow the
cup and ingredients to cool to room temperature before removing
the blade base.
Parts will become hot with extended use.
NEVER touch the drive socket in the blender base or the drive spline
in the Personal Cup Adapter.
To avoid damage or personal injury, NEVER use the cups (including
the blade base or lids) in the microwave.
6.
At the end of the blend, rotate the Variable
Speed Dial counter-clockwise to Variable Speed
1. Press the On/Off Switch.
7.
If the mixture stops circulating, insert the tam-
per through the lid plug and stir until it 'burps'.
If this does not work, press the On/Off Switch to
stop the motor. Remove the container from the
blender base and use a rubber spatula to press
the air bubble away from the blades. Add liquid
if necessary. Replace the lid and lid plug. Return
the container to the blender base and continue
blending.
8.
After blending, wait until the blades completely
stop before removing the lid or container from
the blender base.
