Following these instructions will help prevent injuries and damage to the machine and will 
ensure that you have the best possible experience with your Blendtec blender.
1.1 AVOID CONTACT WITH MOVING PARTS 
• ALWAYS keep fingers, hands, hair and clothing away from all moving parts. 
• ALWAYS keep all utensils away from the drive socket and jar blades during 
operation. Metal utensils may damage blade and jar. 
• NEVER put hands into the blender jar or add substances by hand when the 
jar is on the motor base. 
• NEVER touch the blade with your fingers whether or not it is on the motor base. 
• NEVER place jar into or remove from drive socket if blender motor is operating. 
• DO NOT rock the jar during operation. 
1.2 NEVER OPERATE THE BLENDER IF IT APPEARS DAMAGED 
If the blender malfunctions or is damaged in any way, call 1-800-BLENDTEC to 
determine how to resolve the situation.
1.3 NEVER OPERATE BLENDER IN LIQUID 
Do not put the motor base in water or other liquid. Do not use the blender outdoors 
where it is subject to precipitation.
1.4 NEVER PUT NON-FOOD ITEMS INTO JAR 
Metal utensils, rocks and glass are dangerous if placed in jar. Damage caused 
by such objects will void the warranty. Utensils should be used only when the 
blender is off.
1.5 NEVER OPERATE THE BLENDER WITH MORE THAN THE MARKED 
CAPACITY OF THE JAR
