Hints & Tips
Do's
•
If the volume (while blending) is below the
maximum line, the inner measuring cap can
be removed and oils/liquids can be added
while blender is in use.
•
Run the blender only for the appropriate
amount of time required – do not over
blend ingredients.
•
Use the PULSE button when food is too thick
or coarse to circulate within the blender jug.
•
Do not exceed the maximum mark when
adding foods and liquids into the blender.
•
Ingredients may stick to the sides of the
blender jug. To push food back onto the
blades, turn the blender off and unplug at the
wall. Use a plastic spatula to scrape down the
sides of the jug, and continue blending.
•
If any moisture or liquid appears on top of
the motor base during blending, turn the
blender off and unplug at the wall. Remove
the blender jug, and wipe motor base
immediately with a dry cloth or
paper towel.
•
To stop blending at any time or during
the SMOOTHIE program, press the
CANCEL button.
•
When the blender has been running for
60 seconds, it will automatically turn off.
This is a safety feature to protect the motor.
•
A speed or function can be selected at any
time, even while the blender is running.
Press the new speed or program, and the
blender will change operation immediately.
The motor will still automatically turn off at
120 seconds total time running time.

The maximum amount of ice cubes that
the blender can process is 250g (approx.
1 standard ice tray).

with a plastic or rubber spatula, once or
twice during blending.
