UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS
Place the package containing the Cuisinart
Hand Blender on a sturdy surface. Unpack the Smart Stick
Hand Blender from its box by removing the upper protective insert.
Gently slide the unit from the box. Remove all support materials from the
box and replace the upper insert. Save packaging for possible repacking
of the unit.
NOTE: The blending blade is extremely sharp. Use caution when
removing.
Before using the Cuisinart
the first time, we recommend that you wipe the unit with a clean, damp
cloth to remove any dirt or dust. Dry it thoroughly with a soft, absorbent
cloth. Handle carefully. Never submerge motor body housing in water or
any other liquids; wash detachable blending shaft by hand, and the mix-
ing cup by hand or on the top rack of the dishwasher. Dry thoroughly
before use. Read all instructions completely for detailed operating proce-
dures.
