IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using your blender, you should always follow basic safety precautions, including the following: • Read all instructions before use. • To protect against electrical hazards, do not immerse the cord, plug or motor base in water or other liquids. • Always use the product on a clean, flat, hard, dry surface. There should be no material such as a tablecloth or plastic between the unit and surface. • Avoid contact with moving parts. • Keep hands and utensils out of jar while blending to reduce the risk of: – Severe personal injury – Damage to the blender • If scraping is necessary, turn the power OFF and use a rubber spatula only. • Do not use the appliance: – With a damaged cord or plug – After the unit fails to work correctly – After you drop or damage the product in any way Return the product to your nearest Authorized Oster® Appliance Service Center for a safety check, adjustment or repair. • Triple blades are sharp. Handle them carefully. • To reduce the risk of injury: – Do not leave the triple blades sitting out or exposed – Always completely assemble the blades to the jar before putting on the base • Always put the lid on the jar before operating the blender. • When blending hot liquids beware of steam. Remove the feeder cap from the lid to allow steam to escape. • Do not use outdoors. • Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces or hang over the edge of a table or counter. • Unplug the blender when it is not in use, before taking off or putting on parts and before cleaning. • Never leave the appliance unattended while it is running. • You risk personal injury, fire or electric shock if you use attachments, jars or parts other than those recommended by Oster®. • Supervise children closely when they use or are nearby appliances. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS • This product is for household use only. • The maximum rating marked on the product is based on the attachment that draws the greatest load. Other attachments may draw less power. i Power Cord Instructions Please follow the instructions below to ensure the safe use of the power cord. • This blender has a power cord storage area that allows you to adjust the length of the cord so that it is the appropriate length for your location. Try to position the blender near the power source to reduce the hazards associated with power cords (such as becoming entangled or tripping over a long power cord). • For blenders purchased in the U.S. and Canada: this appliance has a polarized plug (one prong is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet in only one direction. If you cannot completely insert the power plug into the power outlet, reverse the direction of the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way. • Do not pull, twist or otherwise abuse the power cord. • Do not wrap the power cord around the main body of the blender during or after use. This symbol has been placed in specific areas of the User Guide portion of this book. Its purpose is to help you easily identify instructions that require your special attention. iii Table of contents Welcome . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1 Learning about your Product . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2 Using your Product . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .4 Assembly . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .4 Set Up . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .5 When to Use a HELP Screen . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .6 What are ERROR Messages? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .6 Using the AUTOMATIC Recipe Programs (for Drinks or Food) . . . . . . . . . . . . .7 Using the AUTOMATIC Favorites Program . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .9 Using the Ice Crush Function . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .10 Using the AUTOMATIC Food Program . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .11 Using the AUTOMATIC Drinks Program . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .12 Overriding the AUTOMATIC Programming . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .13 Using MANUALLY . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .16 Using the Low and High Buttons . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .17 Using the Pulse Button . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .18 After Use . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .19 Welcome Congratulations on your purchase of an Oster® Model 6710 In2itive™ Blender/Food Processor.
