Remove the blender jar from the motor base by lifting straight up and away. Twist off the locking ring by turning counterclockwise. Remove the cutting assembly and rubber gasket. Wash in warm soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly. Place the locking ring in the upper rack of the dishwasher or wash in warm water.

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

Remove the blender jar cover and the measured pour lid. Wash in warm, soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly, or place in the upper rack of the dishwasher. The blender jar should be washed in warm soapy water and rinsed and dried thoroughly. The blender jar can also be placed upside down in the dishwasher.

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 liquid, or place in the dishwasher.

DO’s AND DON’Ts WHEN USING YOUR BLENDER

DO:

•Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that stated on the bottom of the blender motor base.

•Always use the motor base on a clean, sturdy and dry surface.

•Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then add remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are uniformly mixed.

•When using either blender or food processor, cut most foods into cubes approximately ½" to 1" to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses into pieces no larger than ½".

•When using blender, use the measured pour lid to measure liquid ingredients such as alcohol. Replace measured pour lid after ingredients have been added.

•When using either blender or food processor, use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the blender is turned OFF. Never use metal utensils, as damage may occur to the blender jar/work bowl or cutting assembly.

•Place blender cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the cover on.

•Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar.

•Always remove locking ring, cutting assembly, and rubber gasket before cleaning.

•When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food from the sides of the blender jar and place it in the center of the blender jar, over the cutting assembly.
