• Put liquids in the jar first, unless a recipe says otherwise.
• Crushing ice: Crush 6 ice cubes or approximately
2 cups of ice at a time.
• This blender has been designed to gently process foods when
operating at low speeds. If blades do not rotate during
operation, simply choose a higher speed.

add smaller ingredients. (Figure 5)

seafood into pieces no larger than 1/2 inch (1.8 cm) to 1 inch
(2.5 cm). Cut all kinds of cheeses into pieces no larger than 1/2 inch (1.8 cm).
