When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions

should always be followed, including the following:

■Read all instructions.

■To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put

cord, plug, base, or motor in water or other liquid.

■Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is

used by or near children.

■Unplug cord from outlet when not in use, before putting

on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.

■Avoid contact with moving parts.

■Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or

plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped

or damaged in manner. Call our toll-free customer service

number for information on examination, repair or

electrical or mechanical adjustment.

■The use of attachments, including canning jars, not

recommended or sold by Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex,

Inc. may cause a risk of injury to persons.

■Do not use outdoors.

■Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or

touch hot surfaces, including the stove.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Shock Hazard

■Do not immerse this appliance in water or other

liquid.

■This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade)

that reduces the risk of electrical shock. The plug fits

only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat

the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug

in any way or using an adaptor. If the plug does not

fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an

electrician replace the outlet.

WARNING

840141300 Blender 12/20/05 11:23 AM Page 2

■Keep hands and utensils out of jar while blending to

reduce the risk of severe personal injury and/or damage

to blender. A rubber spatula may be used but must be

used only when blender is not running.

■Blades are sharp; handle carefully– especially when

assembling, disassembling or cleaning inside blender jar.

■Do not use a broken, chipped, or cracked blender jar.

■Do not use broken, cracked, or loose cutting blades.

■To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blades on

base without jar properly attached.

■Always operate blender with lid in place.

■When blending hot liquids:

— Remove center piece of two-piece lid.

— Do not fill blender jar beyond the 3-cup (750 ml) level.

— Always begin processing at the lowest speed setting.

— Keep hands and other exposed skin away from the

cover opening to reduce the risk of possible burns.

■Screw on jar nut firmly. Injury can result if moving blades

accidentally become exposed.

■If the jar should turn when the motor is switched ON, switch

OFF immediately and tighten jar in jar nut, Sure Rest™ base,

or cutting assembly.

■Do not leave blender unattended while it is operating.

■To disconnect cord, turn the control to OFF. Then remove

plug from wall outlet.

■Do not use appliance for other than intended purpose.

OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to

reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over,

a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved

extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the

extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of

the blender. Care must be taken to arrange the extension

cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop

where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped

over.

OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION (cont.)

The wattage rating of the blender is determined by an

Underwriter’s Laboratory test and is based on available cut-

ting blades and jar combinations that may not be provided

with your unit, but are available as replacement parts. This is a

measure of input wattage after 30 seconds of operation. The

blender as provided may draw significantly less power. Peak

power is the measure of the motor wattage during the first

seconds of operation. This is when a blender requires the most

power to crush ice, frozen fruit, etc. This is a better measure of

what a blender motor can deliver when power is needed

most.

If the cutting blades lock and do not move, it will damage

the motor. Do not use. Call the toll-free customer service num-

ber for information.

Do not place blender jar in the freezer filled with food or liq-

uid. This will freeze and can result in damage to the cutting

blades, jar, blender and possibly result in personal injury.

Thank you for purchasing our product!

Your blender is designed with Wave

~Action™blending

technology. This revolutionary system does not require the

use of a stir stick or wooden spoon.

We know you will enjoy many years of superior blending

performance.

CONTROL PANEL

First select and push a

LOW or HIGH power but-

ton then push desired

speed button.

The blender will run until you push the OFF button.

The OFF button is also the Ice Breaker™/Pulse Button.

When using Pulse or IceBreaker, the blender will only

run as long as the button is pushed. As buttons are

pushed left to right, the speed at which the blades

spin will increase.

BEFORE FIRST USE

After unpacking the blender, wash everything except

the blender base in hot, soapy water. Dry thoroughly.

Wipe the blender base with a damp cloth or sponge.

DO NOT IMMERSE THE BASE IN WATER. Care should be

taken when handling the cutting blades as they are

very sharp.

HOW TO ASSEMBLE AND USE

IMPORTANT: Your blender jar and cutting blades are sub-

ject to wear during normal use. Always inspect jar for

nicks, chips, or cracks. Always inspect cutting blades for

broken, cracked, or loose blades. If jar or cutting blades

are damaged, do not use. Call our toll-free customer

service number to obtain replacement parts.

■Make sure blender is unplugged. Place blender base

on clean, dry surface to keep foreign particles from

being pulled up into motor during operation.

■Place cutting blades in Sure Rest™jar base. Set jar on

top of cutting blades and tighten on jar base.

■Make sure the Sure Rest™jar base is firmly screwed

onto the jar. If not, it may loosen later when motor is

turned on.

840141300 Blender 12/20/05 11:23 AM Page 6

■Set assembled jar into place on blender base, making

sure it is securely seated. If not, gently rock the jar until

seated.

■Plug cord into outlet.

■Put ingredients in jar; place lid on jar. Place hand on

lid when blending.

■Blending hot liquid: Do not place hand on lid. Always

use caution when blending hot liquid. Keep hands and

exposed skin away from opening during blending.

■Process food or beverages. See the “Blending Specific

Foods” section for speeds and processing tips.

■ALWAYS turn blender off and wait until blades have

stopped rotating before removing jar.

■To remove jar after blending is complete, lift the jar

straight up. If it is not easily removed, rock gently and

lift. Do not twist.

■NEVER replace jar onto unit while motor is running.

GENERAL TIPS

■Processing hot foods or liquids in the blender may

cause hot liquid to spurt out when the cover is

removed. Always remove the filler cap of the cover

before blending hot foods or liquids.

■To add foods when blender is operating, remove

filler cap from container cover and add ingredients

through the opening.

■For best performance, the minimum amount of liquid

needed per recipe is one cup (8 ounces/250 ml). Add

more liquid if food is not blending properly.

■If blending action stops during blending or ingredi-

ents stick to sides of the jar, there may not be

enough liquid in the jar to blend efficiently.

■Do not try to mash potatoes, mix stiff dough, whip

egg whites, grind raw meat, or extract juices from

fruits and vegetables. The blender is not made to

perform these tasks.

■Do not store food or liquids in the blender jar.

■Avoid bumping or dropping the blender.
