IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using your blender, you should always follow basic safety precautions, including the following:

Read all instructions before use.

To protect against electrical hazards, do not immerse the cord, plug or motor base in water or other liquids.

Always use the product on a clean, flat, hard, dry surface. There should be no material such as a tablecloth or plastic between the unit and surface.

Flashing control button LED light indicates ready to operate. Avoid any contact with blades or moveable parts.

Keep hands and utensils out of jar while blending to reduce the risk of:

Severe personal injury.

Damage to the blender.

If scraping is necessary, turn the power OFF, unplug from the electrical outlet, and use a rubber spatula only.

Do not use the appliance:

With a damaged cord or plug.

After the unit fails to work correctly.

After you drop or damage the product in any way.

Return the product to your nearest Authorized Oster® Appliance Service Center for a safety check, adjustment or repair. Call our toll-free, automated phone line to find the Service Center nearest to you.

The 6 Point Star Blade is sharp. Handle it carefully. To reduce the risk of injury, never place the blade assembly on the base without a jar properly attached.

Always put the lid on the jar before operating the blender.

Do not use outdoors.

Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces or hang over the edge of a table or counter.

Turn all controls to OFF and unplug the blender when it is not in use, before taking off or putting on parts, and before cleaning.

Never leave the appliance unattended while it is running.

You risk personal injury, fire or electric shock if you use attachments, jars or parts other than those recommended by the Oster® brand.

Supervise children closely when they use or are nearby appliances.

The use of attachments, including canning or ordinary jar and processing assembly parts, is not recommended by Jarden Consumer Solutions and may cause risk or injury to persons.

The container should not be more than 2/3 full when the tamper is left in while blending. Do not exceed 30 seconds of continuous blending with the tamper in place.

When making nut butters or oil based foods, do not process for more than one minute after the mixture starts circulating. Over-processing can cause dangerous overheating.

When processing hot liquids: the 2-part lid must be securely locked in place. This allows steam to escape naturally, and will prevent the lid from coming off when the machine is turned on. Always start hot liquids on “Low”, then increase to the desired speed in the recipe. Never start on “High” with hot liquids. Use caution with hot liquids.

Never put non-food items into the pitcher to blend.
