Safety Instructions 2
Short Cord Instructions
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping
over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may
be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply extension cord is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance, and:
2. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Line Cord Safety Tips
1. Never pull or yank on cord or the appliance.
2. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.
3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are found, this
indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord replaced. Please return it to an
authorized service representative.
5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue stress on the cord
where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR IF APPLIANCE
WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
This appliance must be grounded while in use.
CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to properly grounded
outlets only.
IMPORTANT
During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and/or a slight odor. This is normal
and should quickly disappear. It will not recur after appliance has been used a few more times.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Blending
The specially designed blade is for mixing and stirring all kinds of foods, including salad dressings,
powdered drink products, and sauces. It is ideal for combining dry ingredients, and can be used
to emulsify mayonnaise too. This blade mixes and stirs while adding only a minimum of air to your
mixture. A gentle up-and-down motion is all you need to make the most flavorful, full-bodied liquid
recipes. Be careful never to remove the 2-Speed Hand Blender from the liquid while in operation.
Chopping
This blade also chops and purées cooked fruits, vegetables, baby foods, and cooked meats/poultry. To
chop or mince, always cut food into uniform pieces of ½” to ensure perfect results. Keep the 2-Speed
Hand Blender over the food being processed, while placing a free hand on the mixing container for
support. You may wish to place your free hand over the top of the container to prevent chopped
ingredients from escaping. Use a forceful up-and-down motion when chopping and blending. This
allows the blade to process the food more efficiently.
NOTE: If a piece of food becomes lodged in the guard surrounding the blade, follow the safety
instructions below:
1. Release the power button and unplug the electrical cord from the wall socket.
2. After the power source is disconnected, use a spatula to carefully remove the food lodged in the
guard. Avoid injury. Do not use your fingers to remove lodged objects.
3. After the lodged food has been removed you may plug the electrical cord into the wall socket and
continue blending.
Whisking
1. The hand blender is not designed for use over a heat source.
2. This appliance is not intended to chop ice. Add ice to beverage after blending.
3. Place food in a tall, deep container for blending. For best results, solid foods should be no larger
than 1-inch (2.5-cm) chunks.
4. Attach blending or whisk attachment to motor housing. Hold hand blender upright and turn motor
housing clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to loosen while holding the attachment.
5. Plug into outlet.
6. Grasp unit in hand. Push speed control button. Slowly move the attachment up, down, and
sideways through the food.
7. Do not immerse the motor housing past the top metal portion of each blending attachment.
8. Unplug from outlet when not in use.

TIPS FOR USING YOUR 2-SPEED HAND BLENDER
1. Cut most solid foods into ½” cubes for easy blending. Suggestion: use the food chopper bowl
for chopping and grinding solid foods.
2. Pour liquid ingredients into the mixing container first unless recipe instructs otherwise.
3. To avoid splashing, do not pull the hand blender out of the mixture while it is running.
4. Do not let hand blender stand in a hot pot on stove while not in use.
5. To prevent splashing, don’t turn the hand blender on until the blade is beneath the surface
of the mixture.
6. Do not put fruit pits, bones, or other hard material into the blending mixture as these are
liable to damage the blades.
7. Do not fill mixing containers too full. The level of mixture will rise when blending and can overflow.
8. Adding liquids that are warm, not cold, facilitates blending solids with liquids.
9. For recipes calling for ice, use crushed ice (not whole cubes) for best results.

Helpful Tips
TIPS FOR USING YOUR FOOD CHOPPER ATTACHMENT
Size
Always cut food into pieces of even size - about ¼ to ½ inch (6-12mm). If you don’t start with pieces
that are small and uniform, you will not get an even chop.
Quantity
Do not overload the food chopper bowl. Overloading causes inconsistent results and it strains the motor.
Pulse Action
Use pulse action to prevent over processing. To coarsely chop, two or three pulses are often enough.
Be sure to check the food frequently to prevent over processing.
Continuous-hold Action
Continuous-hold action is best when you want to finely chop or mince food. For some very hard foods,
it is best to pulse several times and then run continuously to reach the desired consistency. When you
operate the unit for more than 10 seconds, use a pulse action every 10 seconds or so to allow food
to drop to the bottom of the food chopper bowl. This provides more consistent results. Never operate
the food chopper continuously for longer than 1 minute at a time. Note: The food chopper bowl may
become scratched when you use it for grinding coffee, grain and spices. This does not affect the
performance of the 2-Speed Hand Blender.
Adding Liquid
You cannot add liquids such as water, oil or flavoring while the machine is running. You will need to stop the
2-Speed Hand Blender, remove the lid, add liquid and then replace the lid before continuing to process.
Removing Food from the Sides of the Bowl
Occasionally food will stick to the sides of the bowl as you process. Stop the machine to clear it away.
AFTER THE BLADE HAS STOPPED MOVING, remove the cover, and use a small spatula to scrape
the food from the sides of the bowl back into the center.

Maintenance
Cleaning your 2-Speed Hand Blender
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it
yourself. Refer it to qualified personnel if servicing is needed.
IMPORTANT: UNPLUG BEFORE CLEANING. DO NOT IMMERSE THE BLENDER MOTOR HOUSE IN
WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
1. Always clean the 2-Speed Hand Blender thoroughly after using.
2. Remove the shaft from the motor body. The shaft with the blade can be cleaned in the dishwasher, or by
hand in warm soapy water with a mild detergent. It is not necessary to remove the blade from the shaft.
3. Clean the motor body with a sponge or damp cloth only. Do not use abrasive cleansers which could
scratch the surface.
4. Never immerse the motor body in water.
Suggestion: When processing foods with color (like carrots), the plastic parts of the appliance can
become discolored. Wipe these parts with cooking oil before cleaning them with a mild detergent.
CLEANING your Food Chopper Bowl
To simplify cleaning, rinse the bowl, cover and blade immediately after use, so that food won’t dry
onto them, wash in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry, wipe the underside of the chopper bowl cover
with a sponge or damp cloth to remove any food. Wash the blade carefully. Avoid leaving it in soapy
water where it may disappear from sight.
If you have a dishwasher, you can wash the food chopper & blade on the upper shelf. Insert the food
chopper bowl upside down. Put the blade in the cutlery basket. Unload the dishwasher carefully to
avoid contact with the sharp blade.
