For your safety and continued enjoyment of this product, always read the instruction book carefully before using it.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be taken, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
To protect against electrical hazards, do not immerse the blender base in water or other liquids.
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.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
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 any manner. Return appliance to the
nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
The use of attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause hazards.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, where it can inadvertently be pulled on or tripped over or touch hot surfaces, which could damage the cord.
Keep hands and utensils out of the container while blending
to prevent the possibility of severe personal injury and/or damage to the blender. A rubber scraper may be used but must be used only when the blender is not running.
Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
Never place cutting assembly or cutting blades on base without the container properly attached.
Always operate the blender with the cover in place.
Always operate the blender with jar pad in place.
CAUTION: This blender is not intended for use with hot liquids or ingredients.
Do not fill the above MAX FILL line for blending.
Not for waterjet cleaning.
Ensure the jar coupler and motor coupler are aligned and engaged before operating. If unable to engage, remove jar and shake the contents, then try again.
The jar coupler and motor coupler may be hot after running; do not touch them.
Replace jar pad if worn.
Always use HIGH speed for crushing ice.
If the jar overflows during blending, there is too much liquid/ingredients in the jar. Stop blending, remove enough liquid/ingredients to below the MAX FILL line, and continue blending. Do not operate if overflowing.
DO NOT use carbonated liquids in the blender jar or any blending container. Using carbonated liquids in the blender jar or any blending container may result in injury.
DO NOT blend oil or oil-based products such as peanut butter for more than 5 minutes.
Never remove the blender jar from the base unit until the blade and coupling have completely stopped.
CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cutout, this appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For your protection, Waring® Commercial Blenders are equipped with a 3-conductor cord set.
120-volt units are supplied with a molded 3-prong grounding-type plug and should be used in combination with a properly connected grounding-type outlet, as shown in Figure 1.
If a grounding-type outlet is not available, an adapter, shown in Figure 2, may be obtained to enable a 2-slot wall outlet to be used with a 3-prong plug.
Referring to Figure 3, the adapter must be grounded by attaching its grounding lug under the screw of the outlet cover plate.

CAUTION: Before using an adapter, it must be determined that the outlet cover plate screw is properly grounded. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.
Never use an adapter unless you are sure it is properly grounded.
NOTE: Use of an adapter is not permitted in Canada.
