Troubleshooting Problems
If your Immersion Blender should
malfunction or fail to operate,
please check the following:
1. Is the Immersion Blender plugged in?
2. Is the fuse in the circuit to the
Immersion Blender in working
order? If you have a circuit breaker
box, be sure the circuit is closed.
3. Turn Immersion Blender off for
10-15 seconds, then turn
Immersion Blender back on.
If the problem cannot be corrected with
the above steps, see the KitchenAid
Warranty on page 3. Do not return the
Immersion Blender to the retailer;
retailers do not provide service.
Electrical Requirements
Volts: 120 A.C. only. Hertz: 60
The amperage rating for your blender
is located on the serial plate. The
maximum rating is based on the
attachment that draws the greatest
load. Other recommended
attachments may draw significantly
less current.
NOTE:
This Immersion Blender has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk
of electrical shock, this plug will fit
in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not modify the plug
in any way.
Extension cords are available and
may be used if special care is
exercised in their use.
If a long extension cord is used:
• The marked electrical rating of the
extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the
appliance.
• The cord should be arranged so it
will not drape over the countertop
or tabletop where it can be pulled
by children or tripped over
unintentionally.
