using your Blend-Active
®
blender
Ensure that the appliance is switched off and unplugged from the supply socket
if it is left unattended and before assembling, disassembling or cleaning.
The blades have very sharp edges. Take care when handling or cleaning them.
Never attempt to fit the blade assembly onto the motor unit by itself.
Do not operate your Blend-Active
®
blender continuously for more than 30 seconds
without giving it a rest period of one minute. Take care if processing hot food.
1. Add the ingredients to the bottle. Don’t fill the bottle above the 600ml mark (or 300ml
mark if you are using 300ml bottles).
2. Fit the blade assembly onto the bottle. Tighten the blade assembly firmly.
3. Turn the bottle upside down so that the blade assembly is at the bottom then line up
the symbol on the blade assembly with the symbol on the rim of the motor unit.
4. Gently press the bottle downwards then twist it clockwise until the symbol on the
blade assembly is aligned with the symbol on the rim of the motor unit. Your Blend-
Active
®
blender will not work unless the bottle is correctly locked into position.
5. Press and hold the blend button to operate your Blend-Active
®
blender. You can
either press and hold the button or use short pulses until your drink is at the desired
consistency.
6. When you have finished blending your drink, twist the bottle anticlockwise until the
symbol is aligned with the symbol and remove the bottle and blade assembly.
Turn the bottle the right side up then unscrew the blade assembly and fit one of
the resealable lids onto the bottle. Close the cap of the resealable lid firmly until it
“clicks”.
Notes
: If the ingredients become stuck around the blade during processing, simply
remove the bottle from the motor unit, give it a shake then refit it and carry on processing.
Always remove the bottle when attempting to agitate or otherwise redistribute the
ingredients.
For ease of cleaning, we recommend that you clean your blend active bottle and cap as
soon as you have finished using them.
Crushing ice
Your Blend-Active
®
blender can be used to crush ice. For best results and to prevent
possible damage to the blades, always add a small amount of liquid to the ice before
processing. The liquid can be water or one of the liquid ingredients from your recipe (fruit
juice, etc.).
