• Cut most foods into cubes approximately ½ inch (1.3 cm) to
1 inch (2.5 cm) to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses
into pieces no larger than ½ inch (1.3 cm).
• Use the measured pour lid to measure liquid ingredients such as
alcohol. Replace measured pour lid after ingredients have been
added.
• Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the
blender is turned off. Never use metal utensils, as damage may
occur to the blender jar or cutting assembly.
• Place cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the
cover on.
• Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar.
• Always remove locking ring, cutting assembly, and rubber
gasket before cleaning.
• When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food
from the sides of the blender jar and place food in the center of
the blender jar, over the cutting assembly.
• When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, bread crumbs,
nuts, etc, make sure the blender jar and cutting assembly are
completely dry.
• If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender jar when
blending, pulse in short bursts.
• Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades
stop rotating between pulses.
DON’T:
• Don’t store food or liquids in your blender jar.
• Don’t place cutting assembly and locking ring onto motor base
without the blender jar attached.
• Blender will not mash potatoes, knead heavy dough, or beat
egg whites.
• Don’t remove blender jar while unit is on. Keep the blender jar
cover on the blender jar while blending.
• Don’t twist locking ring from blender jar when removing blender
jar from motor base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.
• Don’t overprocess foods. Blender will achieve most desired
results in seconds, not minutes.
• Don’t overload blender. If the motor stalls, turn the blender off
immediately, unplug the unit, and remove a portion of the food,
then continue.
• Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar while the motor
is on.
• Don’t use any container or accessories not recommended by
Cuisinart. Doing so may result in injury.
• Don’t place hands inside the blender jar when blender is
plugged in.
• Don’t add boiling liquids or frozen foods (except ice cubes or
½-inch pieces of frozen fruit) to glass blender jar. Boiling liquids
should cool for 5 minutes before being placed in blender jar.
