ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

MOTOR HORSEPOWER

Motor horsepower for the Blender motor was measured using a dynamometer, a machine
that laboratories routinely use to measure the mechanical power of motors. Our 3.5 peak
horsepower (HP) motor reference reflects the horsepower output of the motor itself and
not the Blender's horsepower output in the blender jar. As with any Blender, the power
output in the jar is not the same as the horsepower of the motor itself. This motor delivers
2.45 peak HP in the jar, enabling your Blender to deliver robust power for all your recipes.
Voltage: 120 V~
Frequency: 60 Hz
Intensity (Amp.): 15 Amps

an outlet near the appliance.
