SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from entanglement or
tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power supply cords are available and
may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power cord or
extension cord is used (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should
be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord
should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or table top where it
can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. The electrical rating of
the appliance is listed on the bottom of the unit. If the appliance is of the grounded
type, the extension cord should be a grounded type 3 wire cord. This appliance has
a polarized plug. One blade is wider than the other. To reduce the risk of electrical
shock this plug will fit in a polarized plug only one way. If the plug does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Place the box on a large, sturdy flat surface. Carefully unpack your blender and
remove all packaging material and literature. Remove any labels or stickers from the
blender. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, you may
wipe the base with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the base
in water or other liquid. Carefully clean the accessories in warm water with mild
detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The glass jar can be placed in the top rack of
your dishwasher. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. (See “Cleaning Your
Blender” section of this manual for detailed instructions.) Keep all plastic bags away
from children.
