IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
2. To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not
put motor base of blender in water or other liquids.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance
is used by or near children.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting
on or taking off parts, and before cleaning or
removing contents from blender jar. Never put
hands into the blender jar or handle the blades
with appliance plugged in.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord
or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or is
dropped or damaged in any manner. Return
appliance to nearest Cuisinart service facility for
examination, repair, and/or mechanical or electrical
adjustment.
7. The use of attachments, including canning or
ordinary jars, not recommended or sold by Cuisinart
may cause fire, electrical shock, or risk of injury to
persons.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of counter or table
or touch hot surfaces.
10. Keep hands and utensils out of jar while
blending, to reduce the risk of severe injury to
persons or damage to blender itself. A plastic or
wooden spatula may be used but must be used only
when the blender is turned off.
11. When blender is plugged in and ON/OFF button is
flashing, do not touch cutting assembly, interfere
with blade movement, or remove blender jar cover.
Accidentally touching a speed button may activate
the blender.
12. BLADES ARE SHARP. HANDLE CAREFULLY.
13. To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting
assembly on base unless the blender jar is properly
attached.
14. Always operate blender with the lid in place.
15. Never leave your blender unattended while it is
running.
16. Twist locking ring on firmly. Injury can result if moving
blades accidentally become exposed.
17. Regarding your cord set: A longer cord has been
provided so that you will have flexibility in positioning
your blender. Exercise care when using the longer
cord to avoid entangling or tripping over the cord.
The longer cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the counter or tabletop, where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over.
18. Wash the blender jar, jar collar with black assembly,
lid and measuring cup before first use.
19. WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL
SHOCK OR FIRE, DO NOT REMOVE THE BASE
