INSTRUCTION MANUAL
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using this electrical appliance, please follow these basic safety
precautions:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Before using, check that the voltage power corresponds to the
one shown on the appliance nameplate.
3. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
4. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a
heated oven.
5. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after
the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner.
6. To avoid hazard, do not use if supply cord is damaged.
7. Avoid contact with moving parts.
8. Do not leave foreign objects, such as spoons, forks, knives, or the
measuring cup, in the carafe as they will damage the blades and
other components when starting the machine and may cause injury.
9. Blades are sharp; handle carefully.
10. The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended
or sold by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
11. The carafe should not be more than 2/3 full when the tamper is
left in while blending. Do not exceed 30 seconds of continuous
blending with the tamper in place.
12. When making nut butters or oil-based foods, do not process for
more than one minute after the mixture starts circulating.
Over-processing can cause dangerous overheating.
13. When blending hot liquids or ingredients, use caution: spray or
escaping steam may cause scalding and burns. Do not fill container
to maximum capacity. Always begin processing on the lowest
speed setting. Keep hands and other exposed skin away from the
lid opening to prevent possible burns.

14. When blending hot liquids, remove center piece of two-piece
cover.
15. Turn the power switch and speed dial to “OFF” and unplug the
blender when it is not in use, before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning.
16. Never leave the appliance unattended while it is running.
17. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put motor unit
or power cord in or near water or other liquid.
18. Keep hands and utensils, other than the tamper provided, out of
carafe while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons
or damage to the blender. The cover must remain in place when
using the tamper through the cover opening. A scraper may be
used, but must be used only when the blender is not running.
19. If scraping is necessary, turn the power OFF and unplug from the
electrical outlet. Use a silicone spatula only.
20. Always operate blender with lid securely in place.
21. Never put non-food items into the carafe to blend.
22. Do not open the lid before the blades stop running completely to
avoid hazard.
23. Do not put hands or other objects into carafe while operating.
24. This appliance is not intended for use by children or any person
with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they are closely supervised and
instructed concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance
is used by or near children. Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
25. Do not use outdoors.
26. Save these instructions.
27. Do not fill the carafe above the marked maximum fill line (or rated
capacity) to avoid risk of injury due to damage to the cover or
carafe.
28. Do not let cord contact hot surface, including the stove.

TAMPER
The tamper allows you to accelerate the process of very thick and/or
frozen mixtures that cannot be processed in a regular blender. If food is
not circulating, the machine may be overloaded or may have a trapped
air bubble. Using the tamper helps to maintain circulation by preventing
air pockets from forming. First, turn off the appliance, and then remove
the measuring cup. Next, through the hole in the lid, insert the tamper.
Then turn the appliance back on. Use tamper to press ingredients into
the blades as you make ice creams, nut butters, etc.
Resettable fuse button: Incorporated to protect the motor from over-
heating. If the motor shuts off while in use: turn the power switch to
“OFF” and the speed dial to “OFF” and unplug from the wall outlet.
Remove the carafe from the motor unit and free the blades of any
obstructions. Wait 30–45 minutes for the unit to cool down. Press
external resettable fuse button on the bottom of the motor unit.

avoid stressing the motor).
d. You may need to move the tamper not only up and down, but
also side to side.

3. For attaching carafe, first place the carafe lid and measuring cup
into the carafe, ensuring they are placed tightly and properly. Next,
place the carafe onto the carafe support pad and fix it tightly onto
the motor unit. The blender is now ready for use.
