4. Put the lid on the jug, then press the pulse button (P setting) 3 or 4 times, with short
pauses in between.
5. Check the results, and adjust. Too much blending will reduce the ice to liquid, too little
will merely chip the edges/corners off the ice.
6. Do not try to crush ice without adding water to the jug.
7. Do not be tempted simply to increase the amount of ice and blend for longer. This will
not work. Too much ice will never give you satisfactory results.
HINTS AND TIPS
1. To achieve the best results when pureeing solid ingredients, place small portions into
the glass jug one by one instead of placing a large quantity all at once.
2. If you are processing solid ingredients, cut them into small pieces (2-3cm) first.
3. When mixing solid ingredients, start off with a small amount of liquid and gradually add
more and more liquid through the opening in the lid.
4. Take caution when processing hot liquids.
5. For stirring solid or very thick liquid ingredients, we recommend that you use the
blender in impulse mode (P setting) to prevent the blades from becoming stuck.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Switch the smoothie maker off, and unplug it.
2. Clean it as soon after use as possible, to prevent residues setting inside the jug.
3. Turn the jug anti-clockwise to unlock it from the base, and then lift it off the base.
4. Remove the lid, cup and stirrer.
5. All removable parts can be washed in a sink or dishwasher.
Caution
- take great care when handling the blade unit.
6. Turn the jug upside down, so you can see the underside of the blade unit.
7. Hold the jug handle with one hand, hold the underside of the blade unit with the other
hand, and turn the blade unit clockwise to release it
– it is quite stiff.
8. Carefully lift the blade unit out of the jug.
9. Keep hold of the jug handle
– grip the jug base, and turn it anti-clockwise to release.
