Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household
use only.
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 blender. 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.
The wattage rating of the blender is deter-
mined by an Underwriter’s Laboratory test
and is based on available cutting blades
and jar combinations that may not be pro-
vided with your unit, but are available as
replacement parts. This is a measure of
input wattage after 30 seconds of opera-
tion. The blender as provided may draw
significantly less power. 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 mea-
sure of what a blender motor can deliver
when power is needed most.
If the cutting blades lock and do not move,
it will damage the motor. Do not use. Call
the toll-free customer service number for
information.
Do not place blender jar in the freezer
filled with food or liquid. This will freeze
and can result in damage to the cutting
blades, jar, blender and possibly result in
personal injury.
NOTICE:
To prevent leakage of liquids from
your blender jar, the round rubber gasket
must be properly placed between jar and
cutting assembly as shown in the diagram
on page 4.
