Sunbeam 4142 & 4144, 4141 instruction manual Things to do and not to do, Don’T

THINGS TO DO AND NOT TO DO

DO —

1.Use only the line voltage and frequency as specified on the bottom of the Blender.

2.Always operate Blender on a clean, dry surface to prevent air from carrying foreign material or water into the motor.

3.Put liquid portions of recipes into Blender container first unless the instructions in recipes specify otherwise.

4.Cut all firm fruits and vegetables, cooked meats, fish and seafoods into pieces no larger than 1/4 inch (.6 cm) to 1 inch (2.5 cm).

5.Use rubber spatula to push ingredients to be chopped into liquid portion of recipe ONLY when motor is OFF.

6.Place cover firmly on Blender container before starting, and rest hand on the container cover when starting and running motor.

7.Remove heavy dips and spreads, nut butters, mayonnaise and products of similar consistency by removing the processing assembly and pushing the mixture out through the bottom opening into serving dishes or storage container.

8.Pour mixtures if liquid or semi-liquid consistency, such as muffin and cake batters, from Blender container.

9.Allow cooked vegetables and broth to cool before pouring into Blender container for processing .

10.Switch to the next higher speed if the motor seems to labour when processing at one of the lower speeds to prevent overloading of the motor.

DON’T —

1.DON’T expect your Blender to replace all of your kitchen appliances. It will not: mash potatoes, whip egg whites or substitutes for dairy toppings, grind raw meat, knead or mix stiff doughs or extract juices from fruits and vegetables.

2.DON’T process mixtures too long. Remember, the Blender performs its tasks in seconds, not minutes. It is better to stop and check the consistency after a few seconds than to overblend and have a mushy or too-finely ground product.

3.DON’T overload the motor with extra-heavy or extra-large loads. If the motor stalls, turn off immediately, unplug cord from outlet and remove a portion of the load before beginning again.

4.DON’T attempt to remove Blender container from motor base or replace it until the motor has coasted to a complete stop. Blender parts can be damaged.

5.DON’T place or store processing assembly on motor base without first correctly assembling to Blender container. Severe injury can result if Blender is accidentally turned on.

6.DON’T use any utensil, including spatulas, in the container while the motor is running. They can catch in the moving blades, break the container and cause severe injury.

7.DON’T use ANY container not recommended by manufacturer for processing foods. Other containers may break or loosen during processing and cause severe injury.

8.DON’T process hot foods or liquids in the Blender with filler cap attached. Hot liquid may spurt out when cover is removed.
