To avoid possible burns, never start on speeds above 1 when processing hot liquids in a large container.
Escaping steam, splashes or contents may burn. Always start on Variable 1, then slowly increase to 10.
DO NOT use your 0.6 litre cup or 240 ml bowl to heat ingredients or to blend hot liquids. Heated ingredients and
liquids may create internal pressure which could cause the cup to burst and cause injury.
DO NOT use your machine continuously for more than 75 seconds when blending with a cup and blade base.
If a cup becomes warm to the touch or steams or vents, immediately stop blending ingredients and turn off or
unplug the blender. Allow the cup and ingredients to cool to room temperature before removing the blade base.
Parts will become hot with extended use.
DO NOT touch the drive socket in the motor base or the drive spline in the blade base.
To avoid damage or personal injury, DO NOT use the cups (including the blade base or lids) in the microwave.
IMPORTANT! Always use the lid and the lid plug on the Large Container when the
machine is in operation. Never operate the blender without checking to make sure
that the lid and lid plug are securely locked in place. After blending, wait until the
blades completely stop before removing the lid or container/cup from the blender
