8.Do not use outdoors.
9.Do not let cord hang over edge of counter or table or touch hot surfaces.
10.Keep hands and utensils out of jar while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to blender itself. A rubber or plastic spatula may be used but must be used only when the blender is turned off.
