3. Place the blender jar on the blender base, making sure the drive shaft is seated completely in the drive socket of motor base.

2. Make sure a power outlet is available within two feet of the blender motor.
3. Make certain that the blender vents at the bottom of the unit are unobstructed to allow proper cooling.

How to clean your blender

2. Clean the blender base by simply wiping the base and touchpad/screen with a damp cloth. If needed, the drive socket can be cleaned using a toothpick or cotton swab.
3. Do not use abrasives or stiff brushes to clean the blender base. This will dull or scratch the surface, and cosmetic damage is not covered by the warranty.
4. Do not use a water jet of any kind to clean the blender base. NEVER submerge the blender motor in water—this will void your warranty.
