DOs and DON’Ts

CAUTION: When removing the jar use caution. The area underneath the collar may be extremely hot.

Place the blender jar, lid, rubber gasket and measuring cup in the upper rack of the dishwasher or wash in warm, soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly.

To thoroughly clean the heating plate, we recommend that you use the cleaning brush that is included with your blender. Be sure to let the heating plate cool before cleaning with the cleaning brush, as the brush is not heatproof.

NOTE: Do not clean the heating plate with any abrasive tools so as not to scrape the easy-clean coating.

TIP: To wash jar assembly, add a drop of dishwashing liquid and 8 ounces of warm water. Run on speed 1 for 30 to 60 seconds. Repeat, using clean tap water. Do not use heat controls when cleaning. Empty blender jar and carefully disassemble jar from the collar with blade assembly. Rinse and dry all parts thoroughly or allow to air dry.

CAUTION: Handle the cutting assembly carefully. It is SHARP and may cause injury. Do not attempt to remove blades from cutting assembly.

Finally, wipe the motor base clean with a damp cloth to remove any residue, and dry thoroughly. Never submerge the motor base in water or other liquids, or place in a dishwasher. Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
