Blender Safety
When using electric appliances, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including
the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
do not put cord, plug, base, or motor in
water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near children.
4. Unplug cord from outlet when not in
use, before putting on or taking off
parts, and before cleaning.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. 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 for information
on examination, repair, or adjustment.
7. 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.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table
or counter, or touch hot surfaces,
including the stove.
10. 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.
11. Blades are sharp, handle carefully.
12. Do not use a broken, chipped or
cracked blender jar.
13. Do not use broken, cracked or loose
cutting blades.
14. To reduce the risk of injury, never place
cutting unit blades on base without jar
properly attached.
15. Always operate blender with cover
in place.
16. 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.
17. Screw on jar retaining ring firmly. Injury
can result if moving blades accidentally
become exposed.
18. If the jar should turn when the motor is
switched ON, switch OFF immediately
and tighten jar in threaded retaining ring.
19. Do not leave blender unattended while
it is operating.
20. To disconnect cord, turn the control to
OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.
