BLENdING TIPS ANd TECHNIQUES
• Cut food into pieces no larger than ¾” 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 or liquor (F).
• 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, remove the lid cap
and then put it back partly open, with the opened
side tilted away from you. Cover lid with a cloth to
avoid splattering and only use the lowest speed.
