For safety, users have to place the pitcher on the base and twist it clockwise until it’s set in place. The unit makes a click when the pitcher is properly attached to the base.
Before using this blender, the lid also needs to be properly closed. There are white arrows on the pitcher handle that guide you through the process.
Basically, you have to push down the lid handle until you hear a click. The machine doesn’t start until the pitcher and the lid are in place – the power button will flash a red light to let you know if you didn’t do it correctly.
The motor is protected against thermal overload. If it’s heated too much, it will stop, not burn. If this happens, you have to wait until the motor cools down before you can use the blender again.
The cord won’t get in the way due to the special storage place at the back of the blender that is designed to hide it.
It’s also important to mention that the blender has grip feet that will keep it in place while in use.
