repairs must be conducted by the manufacturer,
its service agent, or similarly qualified persons
in order to avoid a hazard. Call the provided
customer service number for information on
examination, repair, or adjustment.
14. Be careful if hot liquid is poured into the
blender container as it can be ejected out
of the appliance due to a sudden steaming.
15. When blending hot liquids, remove filler-cap
of two-piece lid or open vent opening of lid with
mess-free spout, and close any lid openings
along the edge intended for pouring. Hot liquids
may push lid off jar during blending. To prevent
possible burns: Do not fill blender jar beyond the
2-cup (473-ml) level. With the protection of an
oven mitt or thick towel, place one hand on top
of lid. Keep exposed skin away from lid. Start
blending at lowest speed.

17. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or
counter or touch hot surfaces, including stove.
18. Keep hands and utensils out of the jar and
away from the cutting blade, while blending

personal injury and/ or damage to the blender or
available attachments (attachments may not be
provided with blender). A rubber spatula may be
used but must be used only when blender is not
running.
19. To prevent damage to blender, jar, or cutter
assembly, DO NOT move or shake blender
