OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance is intended for household use only. Use for food
or liquids only.
WARNING!
Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug
(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric 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.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over, a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension
cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance.
Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled
on by children or accidentally tripped over.
Do not place blender jar in the freezer filled with food or liquid.
The contents may freeze and may result in damage to the
cutting blades, jar, blender and possibly result in personal injury.
If cutting blades lock and do not move, it will damage the motor.
Do not use. Call the toll-free customer service number for
information.
Wattage/Peak Power Information:
The wattage/ampere
rating of the blender is determined by an Underwriter’s
Laboratory test. This rating is based on the 80-ounce blending
jar. Use of the accessory personal blending jar may draw
significantly less power. This is a measure of input wattage/
amperes after 30 seconds of operation.
Peak power is the measure of the motor wattage during the first
seconds of operation. This is when a blender requires the most
power to crush ice, frozen fruit, etc. This is a better measure of
what a blender motor can consume when power is needed most.
The blender as provided may draw significantly less power.
Optional Accessory:
Stay or Go™ Personal Blending Jar
(AC16) may be used with this appliance. Two blending jars are
included with the blender. Additional blending jars may be
purchased separately.
