13. Always operate with the lid in place.
14. WARNING: When processing hot liquids:
The 2-part latching lid must be securely in place. This allows steam
to escape naturally, and will prevent the lid from coming off when
the machine is turned on.
Use caution with hot liquids. Spraying from under the lid plug can
occur, or escaping steam may cause scalding.
Do not process hot liquids with the non-latching lid.
15. Display window area will scratch when contacted with a scouring pad or
sharp object. Use a soft cloth to wipe the control panel area clean.
16. The optional interlock switch on some 220/240 VAC Blending Stations®
will prevent the machine from running unless the cover door is
completely closed.
17. The Blending Station cannot be cleaned with a water jet.
