INSTRUCTIONS
For your protection, Cuisinart

Blenders are
equipped with a 3-conductor cord set that has
a molded 3-prong grounding-type plug, and
should be used in combination with a properly
connected grounding-type outlet as shown
in Figure 1. If a grounding-type outlet is not
available, an adapter, shown in Figure 2, may
be obtained so that a 2-slot wall outlet can be
used with a 3-prong plug. Referring to Figure 3,
the adapter must be grounded by attaching its
grounding lug under the screw of the outlet cover
plate. CAUTION: Before using an adapter, it must
be determined that the outlet cover plate screw is
properly grounded. If in doubt, consult a licensed
electrician. Never use an adapter unless you are
sure it is properly grounded.
NOTE:
Use of an adapter is not permitted
in Canada.
This appliance is for 120 volts only and should
not be used with a converter.
IMPORTANT: HOT
BLENDING INSTRUCTIONS
To minimize the possibility of scalding when
blending hot ingredients, the following
precautions and procedures must be observed:
1. Limit amount of material processed to
one cup (8 oz.).
2. Completely remove the lid insert of the two-
piece container lid before starting motor.
(This will allow venting of the rapidly heated
and expanding air present inside container
when blender is running.)
3. Start blending on low speed.
4. While blender is running, up to 1½ cups (12
oz.) of additional liquid can be added. Pour
liquid slowly through the opening in the lid.
