CARE AND CLEANING

5.1AFTER USE CLEANING

1.Add 1 cup of hot water and a drop of liquid dishwashing soap to the blender jar.

2.Place the lid tightly onto the jar. Place the blender jar on the blender base, and with your hand placed on top of the lid; press the pulse button for 5 seconds.

3.Rinse with clear water until all soap is rinsed from jar and lid.

4.Clean the blender base by simply wiping the base and touchpad with a damp rag and water.

5.2LONG-TERM SANITATION

1.For long-term sanitation, occasionally fill the blender jar half way with hot water.

2.Add one teaspoon of liquid chlorine bleach.

3.Stir for 10 seconds to mix water and bleach. Let mixture stand in blender jar for five minutes.

4.Empty water/bleach mixture and rinse the jar thoroughly to ensure that there is no bleach mixture left in the jar. Turn jar RIGHT SIDE UP on dish rack until dry.

5.3CLEANING TIPS AND CAUTIONS

Do not use abrasives or stiff brushes to clean the blender base or jar as this will dull or scratch the surface. Cosmetic damage is not covered by war- ranty.

NEVER submerge the blender motor in water. Avoid submerging blender jars for more than 5 minutes. Water penetration through the lower jar seals will reduce the life of the jar. After cleaning, we recommend the blender jar be stored upright.

BLENDER JAR IS DISHWASHER SAFE - TOP RACK ONLY! Extreme tem- peratures damage the lower seal to the jar.
