Blending Guidelines
• Add ingredients to Blender Jar a
little at a time to ensure proper
blending and prevent overflow.
• Never fill the Blender Jar more than
3/4 full. The action of the Blade will
cause the ingredients to rise in the
Blender Jar. For large quantities,
make in several batches.
• Unless the recipe states differently,
pour liquid ingredients into Blender
Jar before solid ingredients. The
liquid will help the processing go
faster and at a lower speed.
• Do not remove the Blender Jar from
the Blender Base when the motor
is running. Keep hands and utensils
out of Blender Jar while processing
to prevent the possibility of severe
personal injury and/or damage to
the blender.
• Thick mixtures require special
attention during processing.
Periodically pause the blending to
scrape the mixture off the sides of
the Blender Jar and onto the Blade.
Select a higher speed setting if
processing becomes sluggish.
• With the Measuring Cap removed,
add solids and ice a little at a time
through the hole in the Lid.
• Always cut solid foods, such as
vegetables and cheeses, into
small chunks before placing in the
Blender Jar.
11. Pulse Button
Ideal for processing foods that need
sudden bursts of power, for a short
period of time. Press and hold the
Pulse Button to process food. When
the button is released, the blender
will return to the previous setting.
The Pulse function can be used at
any time when the power is on. The
maximum operating time for the
Pulse function is 1 minute.
12. Overload Protection System
The blender has an overload
protection system to prevent
damage to the motor. If the blender
is overheated, the blender will
stop and “Cooling” will appear on
the screen. The cooling timer will
count down from 20 minutes (1200
seconds). The Start/Pause Button
cannot be activated during cooling.
After the blender has cooled,
unplug it to reset, and then the
blender can be used again.
13. Sleep Mode
Sleep Mode is activated if no action
is taken for 2 minutes. The Dynamic
Control Dial and Digital Display
Screen will turn off. Press any
button, turn the dial or click the dial
to illuminate the screen.
