BLENDER SAFETY
9.  Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to reduce the risk 
of severe injury to persons or damage to the Blender. A spatula or scraper 
other than the provided Flex Edge tamper may be used, but must be used 
only when the Blender is not running.
10. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
11. The use of attachments, including canning blender jars, not recommended 
by KitchenAid may cause a risk of injury to persons.
12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
13. Always operate Blender with cover in place.
14. When blending hot liquids or ingredients, ingredient-measuring cap should 
remain in place over the lid opening. Always start on lowest speed and 
slowly ramp to desired speed when blending hot liquids or ingredients.

Motor horsepower for the Blender motor was measured using a dynamometer, a machine 
that laboratories routinely use to measure the mechanical power of motors. Our 3.5 peak 
horsepower (HP) motor reference reflects the horsepower output of the motor itself and 
not the Blender’s horsepower output in the Blender pitcher. As with any blender, the 
power output in the pitcher is not the same as the horsepower of the motor itself. This 
motor delivers 2.45 peak HP in the pitcher enabling your Blender to deliver robust power 
for all your recipes.
