Blending Tips
• 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.
• Do not remove the Lid while in use. Remove Feeder Cap
to add smaller ingredients. (Figure 1)
• Cut all firm fruits and vegetables, cooked meats, fish and
seafood into pieces no larger than 1.8 cm (1/2 inch) to 2.5
cm (1 inch). Cut all kinds of cheeses into pieces no larger
than 1.8 cm (1/2 inch).
• This Blender will not mash potatoes, whip egg whites or
substitute dairy toppings, mix stiff dough or grind raw meat.
