IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions. Keep these instructions for future reference.
2. Verify that the voltage in your home corresponds to that of your
appliance.
3. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put cord, plug,
base, or motor in or near water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children.
5. Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning.
6. Avoid contact with moving parts.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or
after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in
any manner. Call our toll free customer service number on
the front cover information on examination, electrical repair,
mechanical repair, or adjustment.
8. The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended
or sold by Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc. may cause a
risk of injury to persons.
9. Do not use outdoors.
10. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces, including the stove.
11. Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to
reduce the risk of severe personal injury and/or damage to
blender. A rubber spatula may be used but must be used only
when blender is not running.
12. Blades are sharp, handle carefully.
13. Do not use a broken, chipped or cracked blender jar.
14. Do not use broken, cracked or loose cutting blades.
15. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blades on base
without jar properly attached.
16. Always operate blender with cover in place.
17. When blending hot liquids, remove center piece of two-piece
cover. Do not fill blender container beyond the 3 cup level.
Always begin processing at the lowest speed setting. Keep
hands and other exposed skin away from the cover opening to
prevent possible burns.
18. Screw on jar retaining ring firmly. Injury can result if moving
blades accidentally become exposed.
19. If the jar should turn when the motor is switched ON, switch
OFF immediately and tighten jar in threaded retaining ring.
20. Do not leave blender unattended while it is operating.
21. To disconnect cord, turn the control to OFF, then remove plug
from wall outlet.
22. Do not use appliance for other than intended purpose.

• Do not immerse this appliance in water or other liquid.
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that
reduces the risk of electrical shock.
The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat
the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way
or using an adaptor. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
