IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be taken, including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking
off parts, and before cleaning or removing contents from blender
container. Never put hands into the blender container, or handle the
blades with appliance plugged in.
3. To protect against electrical hazards, and permanent damage to unit, do
not put motor base of blender in water or other liquids.
4. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
5. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
6. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
7. Do not use carbonated liquids in the blender container, or in any
blending container. Using carbonated liquids in a blender container
may result in injury.
8. Do not pour boiling water into the blender container.
9. Avoid coming into contact with moving parts.
10. Do not operate this blender or any other appliance with a damaged cord
or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in
any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility
for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
11. The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended by
the manufacturer may cause a risk of injury to persons.
12. Do not use outdoors.
13. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.
14. Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to
prevent the possibility of severe personal injury and/or damage to
the blender. A plastic scraper may be used, but must be used only
when the blender is not running.
15. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
16. Always operate blender with lid in place.
17. See Cleaning and Maintenance instructions. Not for water-jet cleaning.
18. Always operate blender with jar pad properly in place.
19. Do not fill above MAX FILL LINE for blending.
20. If the container overflows during blending, there is too much liquid/
ingredients in the container. Stop blending, remove enough liquid/
ingredients to below MAX FILL LINE, and continue blending. Do not
operate if overflowing.
21. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage. When storing in
an appliance garage, always unplug the unit from electrical outlet. Not
doing so could create a risk of fire, especially if the appliance touches the
walls of the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes.
22. Do not leave the Cuisinart
23. The use of ear protection is recommended during extended operating
periods.
24. Ensure the jar coupler and motor coupler are aligned and engaged
before operating. If unable to engage, remove container and shake
contents, then try again.
25. The jar pad may be hot after running — do not touch.
26. Replace jar pad if worn.
27. When the power is on and the On/Off button is flashing, do not touch
jar pad, interfere with blade movement, or remove jar pad. Accidentally
touching a speed button may activate the blender.
28. When blending hot liquids, remove center piece of two-piece cover.
29.
Flashing light indicates ready to operate. Avoid any contact with blades or
moveable parts.
