Safety Guidelines

IMPORTANT SAFETY GUIDELINES

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, especially the

following:

• Please Read and Save this Instruction

Manual

• Read all instructions carefully.

• Remove all packaging and labels from appli-

ance prior to use.

• To protect against risk of electrical shock do

not put cord, plugs, or appliance in or near

water or other liquid.

• Any maintenance other than cleaning,

please contact StoreBound directly at:

1-800-898-6970 from 7AM - 7PM PST

Monday – Friday, or by email at support@

storebound.com.

• Keep appliance away from children when in

use.

• Unplug from outlet when not in use, during

assembly, during disassembly, and before

cleaning.

• Avoid contact with moving parts.

• Do not operate this appliance with a dam-

aged cord, damaged plug, after the appli-

ance malfunctions, is dropped, or damaged

in any manner.

• Use only attachments recommended or sold

by the manufacturer.

• Others may result in re, electric shock, or

injury.

• Do not use outdoors.

• Do not leave unattended when on.

• Do not let cord hang over edge of table,

hang over edge of counter, or touch hot

surfaces.

• Always make sure the pitcher is locked

securely in place before motor is engaged.

Do not remove pitcher before blender has

nished blending.

• Make sure dial is in the o position after

each use. Make sure the motor stops

completely before disassembling.

• Do not put your ngers or other objects into

the blender while it is in operation. If food

becomes lodged in the blades, turn off and

unplug before trying to remove.

• Do not use the appliance if any of the parts

are damaged.

• Do not use without lid in place.

• Keep hands and utensils away from moving

blades while appliance is engaged to reduce

the risk of severe injury or damage to the

blender.

• Blades in the blender are sharp. Handle

carefully. Wash using brush or gloves. Do

not touch small cutting blades in the base

of the pitcher.

• Do not place on or near a hot gas range, hot

electric burner, or in a heated oven.

• When cleaning do not submerse motor (with

electrical parts) in any liquid; instead use a

soft, wet cloth to wipe down.

• Do not run the blender when the pitcher is

empty.

• When blending thick or dry food for a

prolonged period of time, the temperature

monitoring system may shut down the motor

to prevent overheating. This may occur

when the Blender is overloaded. Unplug the

Blender and place the motor base in a well

ventilated area allowing it to cool down for

45 minutes. Try removing some of the food

before beginning to blend again.

• Make sure the Lid is closed tightly during

blending to prevent liquid from splashing

out.

Safety Guidelines

• Keep hands and utensils out of the Pitcher

while the motor is running to prevent injuries

or damages.

• When making hot food, it is highly

recommended to start at a low setting and

gradually increase the speed setting or

simply use the PULSE mode.

• When making sauces, stufng, nuts, etc.,

put in between 2-3 cups of ingredients at a

time. Keep the blending time below 2 min-

utes to prevent the motor from overloading

or overheating. If the motor stops abruptly,

allow the motor temperature to decrease

before beginning to blend again.

• Always place soft or liquid food before hard

food or ice cubes.

• Wait until the blade comes to a complete

stop before picking up the Pitcher. If not

done accordingly, the Drive Gear may

become damaged.

• If you smell a burnt scent coming from the

blender, shut it down immediately. This can

be caused by abrasion of the Rubber Base.

Make sure the Rubber Base is properly

assembled.

• When blending thick and sticky food, start

blending at a low setting. If the blade is

jammed, use the Tamper to stir the food in

the pitcher allowing air to come out. Close

the lid tightly and begin to blend again.

• When blending thick and sticky food using

high speed, please start the operation at

low speed. If the turning is still idle, discon-

nect the power and stir the blender jar using

a rubber stirrer to drive out the air capsule

trapped in the food. Then close the lid and

switch on to proceed the operation.

• Do not operate for more than 10 minutes

at a time.
