IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:

Read all instructions carefully before use.
To protect against the risk of electric shock, do not put the motor end of the appliance in water or other liquids.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
To disconnect, turn the unit off, grasp the plug, and pull from the wall. Never yank on the cord.
Avoid contacting 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 the appliance to an authorized service facility for examination, repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter or touch hot surfaces, including the stove.
Keep hands and utensils away from moving blades while processing food to prevent the possibility of personal injury or damage to the unit.
The blade is sharp. Handle carefully.
Do not operate the unit for more than 1 minute at a time. If the unit is in operation for more than 1 minute, allow 1 minute to elapse before turning on the unit again.
Do not twist, kink, or wrap the power cord around the appliance as this may cause the insulation to weaken and split, particularly in the location where it enters the unit.
Never leave an appliance unattended while it is plugged into an outlet.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazard resulting from entanglement or tripping over a long cord.
Extension cords may be used if care is exercised. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, it should be positioned so that it does not drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
The electrical rating of the extension cord must be the same or more than the wattage of the appliance (the wattage is shown on the rating label located on the underside or back of the appliance).
Avoid pulling or straining the power cord at the outlet or appliance connections.

POLARIZED PLUG

Your appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it does not fit, please consult a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature by modifying the plug in any way.

WARNING: Improper use of the power cord may result in electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if necessary.

Before Your First Use

Carefully unpack the hand blender and remove all packaging materials.
You may wipe the exterior of the motor housing with a clean, damp cloth.
To remove any dust that may have accumulated on the removable parts during packaging, wash the detachable blender shaft and blend the beaker with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

CAUTION: Blades are sharp, handle carefully.

WARNING: Do not immerse the motor housing, cord, or plug in water or any other liquids. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasive cleansers on any part of the hand blender.

Using Your Hand Blender

The hand blender blends, mixes, and chops fast and easily. Use it to make soups, mayonnaise, purees, dietary and baby food, mixed drinks or cocktails.
Plug the hand blender into a 120-volt 60 Hz AC-only outlet.
Insert the hand blender into your mixing container first, and then press the desired speed switch to operate. Release switch to stop unit.
NOTE: Always switch off the hand blender before taking it out of the food.
Your hand blender comes complete with a handy blending beaker but can be operated as efficiently in a bowl, pan or other container.
When using directly in a saucepan while cooking, remove the pan from the stove first to avoid overheating the blender unit.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage to your hand blender:
- Always inspect attachments before each use.
- Do not use cracked, bent or damaged attachments.

CAUTION: Do not use the hand blender for more than 1 minute consecutively. After 1 minute of use, allow the hand blender to rest for a few minutes before continuing to blend.

Hot Blending Instructions

To prevent scalding when mixing or blending hot ingredients, the following precautions must be observed:

Use a tall container less than half full or blend small quantities at a time.
Insert the blade end of the hand blender into the container until it touches the bottom before starting on low speed.
Take care not to lift the blender shaft out of the hot ingredients while operating the hand blender.
To use the hand blender in a hot saucepan, be sure to remove the pan from the stove as the hand blender is not designed for use over a heat source.
To puree hot foods, a certain amount of liquid is always needed.
Add cooking liquid, broth, juice, milk, or cream, until the desired consistency is reached.
To avoid scalding, do not stand directly over a container of hot ingredients while operating the hand blender.

Helpful Hints

For thorough blending, move the blade up and down in the mixture until smooth.
To achieve best blending results use deep, tall containers.
For easy clean-up, unplug the hand blender and rinse the blending shaft under running water immediately after use.

CAUTION: The hand blender is not designed for crushing ice, or mixing cookie dough, bread dough or mashed potatoes.

Care and Cleaning

Other than the care and cleaning procedures mentioned in this manual, no other servicing or maintenance of the unit is required.

IMPORTANT: Do not try to sharpen the cutting edges of the blade. It has been precision honed at the factory and will be damaged by any attempted sharpening. When the hand blender is not in use, unplug the hand blender from the wall outlet.
CAUTION: Before cleaning, be sure the hand blender has been unplugged from the outlet. To detach the blender shaft, rotate in a clockwise direction to unlock it from the main body. To make cleaning easier, rinse parts immediately after blending. The motor housing may be wiped with a damp cloth and dried thoroughly.
IMPORTANT: Do not immerse the motor housing in water or any other liquids. Be careful when handling the sharp blades.
The detachable blender shaft and beaker may be hand-washed in warm, soapy water. Ensure all parts are clean and dry before storing.
NOTE: Some foods and spices will cause minor discolouration to your hand blender.
