ter assembly, DO NOT move or shake
blender while in operation. If blending
action stops during operation, turn blender
OFF, remove jar from base, remove jar
cover, and use a thin rubber spatula to
push mixture towards cutters.
• To prevent burns from hot liquids splash-
ing out of the jar, always remove the filler
cap of the container cover before blend-
ing.
• Do not submerge in liquids or wash the
blender base in a dishwasher.
• Do not spray the base with a high-
pressure spray gun.
• Do not carry the unit by the power cord.
• Disconnect power before cleaning.
• Disconnect power before taking to an
authorized service facility.
• Only authorized service facilities should
repair the blender.
• Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions, or is dropped
or damaged in any manner.
• If the supply cord of this appliance is dam-
aged, it must be replaced by the manufac-
turer or its service agent or a similar quali-
fied person. If fitted with a non-rewirable
U.K. plug, the 13 amp fuse approved by
ASTA to be B.S. 1362 must be used. If
you need a replacement fuse carrier, it
must be replaced by the same colour
coded carrier with the same markings.
Fuse covers and carriers can be obtained
from approved service agents.
IMPORTANT: If the molded plug is cut
off, dispose of it immediately. The plug
is not rewirable and would cause a shock
hazard if inserted into a socket.
