OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Place the Motor Base of the blender on a flat, sturdy surface. Plug the power cord into an electrical
outlet. Make sure the Dial on the front panel is on the Off position. Press the Main Power Button
located on the back of the Motor Base before first use.
Start filling the Jar with ingredients. Make sure ingredients do not exceed MAX LINE. See Filling the
Jar instructions below.
Place Jar securely on the Motor Base and cover with the Lid, making sure the Measuring Cap is
inserted. Push down on the Lid to ensure a tight seal.
To operate the blender, you can select either
Manual Mode
or
PROG MODE
. When you turn the
dial to
PROG MODE
, all of the buttons on the front panel will illuminate blue for 30 seconds or until
you press the Program button.
FILLING THE JAR
•
Add softer ingredients and liquids first, and then
add harder ingredients like ice and frozen fruit into
the container last, farther away from the blade. Be
sure to add harder ingredients gradually to ensure
proper blending.
•
We recommend that you cut food into ½ to 1 inch
pieces to ensure the best results.
•
Do not fill Jar beyond the MAX fill line.
•
Do not overload Jar.
It is better to mix things in
batches than to overload the Jar, which may
potentially harm the motor.
•
If food is not blending, you may need to add more
liquids and/or use Tamper to help blend foods.
DO NOT ADD HOT LIQUIDS.
•
To add more ingredients, Stop blender, remove Measuring Cap from Lid and add them. Make
sure to secure Measuring Cap in place by turning clockwise on top of Lid before restarting.
MANUAL MODE
Use the highest setting called out in recipes for as much of the processing as possible. Blending
foods too long at too low of a speed could overheat the blender and cause the automatic Thermal
Protector to stop the blender from operating. Blending at higher speeds for shorter periods helps to
avoid overheating.
Turn dial to desired speed by turning it clockwise from OFF Position up to HI Position. This function
is ideal for blending fruits and vegetables for juice, baby food and more. Make sure to start at the
lowest speed and then increase it to desired speed. To stop, turn dial counterclockwise to the OFF
position.
PROG MODE and Pulse do not work when blender is on Manual Mode. LED lights will not illuminate
in Manual Mode.
Your blender can be used to blend dry ingredients like herbs, spices, and dry chiles. Grinding these
types of ingredients may cause the Jar to retain odors and discolor.
NEVER blend dry ingredients
for more than 60 seconds
as it could damage the blender.
