IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
• Read all instructions.
• To protect against risk of electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs or
appliance in water or other liquid.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children.
• Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning.
• Avoid contacting moving parts.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return
appliance to the nearest authorized service facility or call the appropriate
toll-free number on the front of this manual for examination, repair or
electrical or mechanical adjustment. Or, call the appropriate toll-free
number on the cover of this manual.
• The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended by the
manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
• Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to reduce the risk
of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender. A scraper may be
used, but must be used only when the blender is not running.
• Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
• To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutter-assembly blades on base
without jar properly attached.
• Always operate blender with cover in place.
• When blending hot liquids, remove center piece of two-piece cover.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
This product is for household use only.
POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
modify the plug in any way.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw
to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or
electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized
service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be
provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and
may be used if care is exercised in their use.
c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or
extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance,
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over.
Note:
If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified
personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.
HOW TO USE
This product is for household use only.
GETTING STARTED
• Wash all removable parts as instructed in CARE AND CLEANING section of
this manual.
• Wipe outside of appliance with a damp cloth; dry thoroughly.
BLENDER JAR ASSEMBLY
1. Turn blending jar upside down and place
flat on countertop or work surface.
2. Put gasket on top of blade assembly. Place
blade assembly with gasket into bottom
opening of the jar with blades facing down.
3. Place jar base onto jar and rotate clockwise
until it is tight (B).
4. Turn assembled jar right side up.
5. Place lid with lid cap onto blending jar.
6. Uncoil power cord from storage area under
the base.
Note:
Do not plug in the cord.
7. Place jar assembly on base, making sure it is pressed firmly into place.
(Jar base should not extend more than ¹⁄
8
-inch above the rim at the top
of the base.)
8. Blender is now ready for use.
USING YOUR BLENDER
1. Make sure appliance is OFF.
2. Place foods to be blended into jar.
3. Place lid on jar; make sure lid cap is in place.
4. Plug power cord into outlet.
Note:
When in use, do not leave blender unattended. When using hard foods,
such as ice, cheese, nuts and coffee beans, keep one hand on the lid to keep
blender in place.
5.
Press the High or Low button; then select the speed that best suits
your desired task. To switch speeds, press the High or Low button
and the new speed desired.
6. When blending thick mixtures, such as smoothies, power drinks and
milkshakes press the Pulse button several times to begin the blending
process. Press the Pulse button for no more than 5 seconds at a time.
This helps break up the ice and distribute the ingredients.
7. Open the lid cap to add ingredients while the blender is running and drop
ingredients through the opening.
Important: Do not remove the lid while the blender is running.
8. When finished, press the Pulse/Off button. Make sure blades have
completely stopped before attempting to remove the blending jar from
the base.
9. To remove the jar, grasp the handle and lift straight up. Do not twist the jar.
10. Remove lid to pour.
11. Always unplug the appliance when not in use.
BLENDING TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
• Cut food into pieces no larger than ¾-inch for use in the blender.
• When preparing foods that have several different kinds of ingredients,
always add liquid ingredients first.
• When ingredients splatter onto the sides of the jar or the mixture is very
thick, press the OFF button to turn appliance off. Remove the lid and use
a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the jar and to redistribute
the food pushing food toward the blades. Replace the lid and continue
blending.
Important: Blender should always have lid in place when in use.
Caution: Do not place blending jar on base when motor is running.
• The lid cap holds up to 1 oz. liquid and can be used as a measure and when
adding ingredients such as juices, milk, cream and liquor.
• When making bread crumbs, chopping nuts or grinding coffee beans make
sure blending jar is completely dry.
• When using PULSE function use short bursts. Allow the blades to stop
rotating between pulses. Do not use pulse for more than 2 minutes.
• Use the PULSE button to begin the blending process when preparing
beverages that include ice cubes; this helps to produce a smoother texture.
• The PULSE function is helpful when short bursts of power are needed
such as when preparing thick smoothies or milkshakes, chopping nuts or
grinding coffee beans.
• It is helpful to begin the blending process on the lowest speed and then
increase to a higher speed, if necessary.
• To stop blending, press the OFF button at any time.
• When blending hot liquids always let them cool at least 5 minutes before
blending. Before beginning to blend, remove the lid cap and put it back
with the opened side tilted away from you. Cover lid with a cloth to avoid
splattering and only use lowest speed. Do not blend more than 2½ to 3
cups at a time.
• DO NOT place any of the following in the blender:
- Large pieces of frozen foods
- Tough foods such as raw turnips, sweet potatoes and potatoes
- Bones
- Hard salami, pepperoni and hard sausages
- Boiling liquids (cool for 5 minutes before placing in blending jar)
• Several other don’ts:
- Do not operate blender without the lid on the blending jar
- Do not store foods in the blending jar
- Do not overfill the blender. (The blender is more efficient with less rather
than more.)
- Do not use pulse for more than 10 seconds at a time. Release the
PULSE button; allow the blender to rest briefly, then continue.
- Do not run blender for longer than 30 seconds when using dry foods and
2 minutes when blending liquids. Scrape down sides on blending jar, if
necessary and continue blending.
- Do not use if blender jar is chipped or cracked
• Tasks not recommended for the blender:
- Whipping cream
- Beating egg whites
- Mixing dough
- Mashing potatoes
- Grinding meats
- Extracting juice from fruits and vegetables

3. Remove jar base by turning counterclockwise until loose.
4. Remove gasket and blade assembly.
Caution: Blades are sharp, handle carefully.
