OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION  
This appliance is intended for household use only. Use for food  
or liquids only.  
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug  
(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The  
plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat  
the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any  
way or using an adaptor. If the plug does not fit, reverse the  
plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the  
outlet.  
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to  
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over,  
a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved  
extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the  
extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of  
the blender. Care must be taken to arrange the extension  
cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop  
where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped  
over.  
Do not place blender jar in the freezer filled with food or liquid.  
The contents may freeze and may result in damage to the  
cutting blades, jar, blender and possibly result in personal injury.  
If the cutting blades lock and do not move, it will damage  
the motor. Do not use. Call the toll-free customer service  
number for information.

WATTAGE/PEAK POWER INFORMATION  
The wattage rating of the blender is determined by an  
Underwriter’s Laboratory test and is based on available cut-  
ting blades and jar combinations that may not be provided  
with your unit but are available as replacement parts. This is a  
measure of input wattage after 30 seconds of operation. The  
blender as provided may draw significantly less power. Peak  
power is the measure of the motor wattage during the first  
seconds of operation. This is when a blender requires the most  
power to crush ice, frozen fruit, etc. This is a better measure of  
what a blender motor can deliver when power is needed  
most.  
Thank you for purchasing our product!  
Your blender is designed with Wave~Actionblending  
technology. This revolutionary system does not require the  
use of a stir stick or wooden spoon.  
We know you will enjoy many years of superior blending  
performance.  
OPTIONAL ACCESSORY  
Hamilton Beach Brands Stay or Go™ Personal Blending Jar  
(AC16) may be purchased separately and used with this  
appliance.

BEFORE FIRST USE  
After unpacking the blender, follow instructions in “How  
to Clean.”  
CONTROL PANEL  
First select and push a  
LOW or HIGH power  
button, then push  
desired speed button.  
The blender will run until  
you push the OFF button. The OFF button is also the  
Ice Breaker/Pulse Button. When using Pulse or  
IceBreaker, the blender will only run as long as the  
button is pushed. As buttons are pushed left to right,  
the speed at which the blades spin will increase.  
HOW TO ASSEMBLE AND USE  
IMPORTANT: Your blender jar and cutting blades are sub-  
ject to wear during normal use. Always inspect jar for  
nicks, chips, or cracks. Always inspect cutting blades for  
broken, cracked, or loose blades. If jar or cutting blades  
are damaged, do not use. Call our toll-free customer  
service number to obtain replacement parts.  
Make sure blender is unplugged. Place blender base  
on clean, dry surface to keep foreign particles from  
being pulled up into motor during operation.  
Place cutting blades in Sure Restjar base. Set jar on  
top of cutting blades and tighten on jar base.  
Make sure the Sure Restjar base is firmly screwed  
onto the jar. If not, it may loosen later when motor is  
turned on.  
Set assembled jar into place on blender base, making  
sure it is securely seated. If not, gently rock the jar until  
seated.  
Plug cord into outlet.

Put ingredients in jar; place lid on jar. Place hand on  
lid when blending.  
CAUTION: To avoid potential burns, do not place hand  
on blender lid when processing hot liquids. With the  
protection of an oven mitt or thick towel, place one  
hand on top of lid. Keep exposed skin away from lid.  
Start bending at lowest speed.  
Process food or beverages. See the “Blending Specific  
Foods” section for speeds and processing tips.  
ALWAYS turn blender off and wait until blades have  
stopped rotating before removing jar.  
To remove jar after blending is complete, lift the jar  
straight up. If it is not easily removed, rock gently and  
lift. Do not twist.  
NEVER replace jar onto unit while motor is running.  
GENERAL TIPS  
To prevent possible burns: do not fill blender jar beyond  
the 3-cup (750 ml) level. With the protection of an  
oven mitt or thick towel, place one hand on top of lid.  
Keep exposed skin away from lid. Start blending at  
lowest speed.  
To add foods when blender is operating, remove  
filler cap from container cover and add ingredients  
through the opening.  
For best performance, the minimum amount of liquid  
needed per recipe is one cup (8 ounces/250 ml). Add  
more liquid if food is not blending properly.  
If blending action stops during blending or ingredi-  
ents stick to sides of the jar, there may not be  
enough liquid in the jar to blend efficiently.  
Do not try to mash potatoes, mix stiff dough, whip  
egg whites, grind raw meat, or extract juices from  
fruits and vegetables. The blender is not made to  
perform these tasks.  
Do not store food or liquids in the blender jar.  
Avoid bumping or dropping the blender when in  
operation or at any time.

HOW TO CLEAN  
To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put cord,  
plug, base, or motor in water or other liquid.  
Unplug blender from electrical outlet.  
Wipe blender base, control panel, and cord with a damp  
cloth or sponge. To remove stubborn spots, use a mild,  
non-abrasive cleanser.  
To clean jar, unscrew Sure Restjar base and remove  
cutting blades.  
Do not try to separate the gasket from the cutting blades.  
Carefully wash cutting blades, Sure Restjar base, jar (if  
plastic), lid, and filler cap in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry  
thoroughly. Do not soak. Glass jars may be washed in an  
automatic dishwasher. If desired, all parts except the cutting  
blades may be washed in the dishwasher in the top rack  
only. Please note: some part distortion may occur if your  
household dishwasher temperature is higher than normal or  
if parts are placed too close to the heating element.  
NOTE: Do not wash cutting blades in a dishwasher.  
To reassemble blender, first screw cutting blades into jar;  
then place jar onto Sure Restjar base.  
Store blender with lid ajar to prevent container odor.  
QUICK CLEAN  
The Quick Clean function should only be used to rinse the  
blender between batches of processing the same food.  
When the processing of a single type of food is finished, the  
blender should be disassembled and thoroughly cleaned as  
instructed in “How to Clean.”  
To Quick Clean, pour 2 cups (500 ml) warm water in jar and  
add 1 drop liquid dishwashing detergent. Run the blender on  
HIGH SPEED for 10 seconds. Discard soapy water. Rinse with  
clean water.  
This function is not a substitute for regular cleaning as instruct-  
ed in “How to Clean.” This function should never be used  
when blending any mixture containing eggs, milk, or any  
other dairy products, meats, or seafood.
