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 PULSE/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: Appliance should always have lid in place when in use.
Caution: Do not place blender jar onto base when motor is running.
• The lid cap holds up to 2 oz. of liquid and can be used
as a measure when adding ingredients such as juices,
milk, cream and liquor

.
• When making bread crumbs, chopping nuts or
grinding coffee beans, make sure blender 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/OFF 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 at any time, press the PULSE/OFF button.
• When blending hot ingredients, always open the lid
cap and replace it ajar with the opened side away
from you. Cover lid with a cloth to avoid splattering
and only use the lowest speed. Do not blend more
than 2½ to 3 cups at a time
