HELPFUL REMINDERS
• Cover should always be in place while the unit is on. Make sure the cover is
properly aligned.
•
Warning:
Do not place blender jar onto jar pad while motor is running.
• Add liquid ingredients first, then follow with solid ingredients, then frozen
ingredients. This will provide more consistent blending and prevent
unnecessary stress on the motor.
• Boiling liquids should cool for 5 minutes before being placed in blender jar.
• Follow Cleaning and Maintenance instructions on page 6 prior to your
first use.
