OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To minimize splatter, always begin the blending process with the Speed Control
Knob set to Low or Forward Speed 1 and slowly increase the speed to the
desired setting. Do not begin processing on High or Forward Speed 7.
1.
Load the container before placing it on the motor base. Place liquids
and soft foods in the container first, solid items and ice last. Although
not necessary for blending, you may want to cut or break food into
smaller pieces for more precise measuring of ingredients.
2.
Securely fasten the 2-part lid. Always use the lid plug when blending
(unless the tamper is inserted through the lid plug opening).
When blending hot ingredients, make sure the lid plug is in place and the
lid is securely latched.
3.
With the motor off, set the container on the motor base by aligning it over
the centering pad. Do not attempt to put a container on an operating motor
base or to operate a motor base without a container properly in place.
4.
Start with the Speed Control Knob set to Start (1) or Low. Always start your
machine on Low or Forward Speed 1. Activate the machine by lifting the
Impact Lever Up to the Forward - On position and then slowly use the Speed
Control Knob to increase to the desired speed. Your container may shift and
get into an aligned position.
5. Take proper care when handling and processing hot ingredients and
making hot soups and sauces.
6.
Due to the machine’s speed, processing times are much quicker than
standard appliances. Until you are accustomed to the machine, count your
time carefully to avoid over-processing.
7.
After turning the machine off, wait until the blades completely stop before
removing the lid or container from the motor base.
CAUTION
Never Start on High with Hot
Liquids to Avoid Possible Burns.
Escaping steam, splashes or contents
may scald.
To secure the contents, lock the lid
and lid plug securely in place prior to
operating the machine and
always start on Low and then switch
to High.
