DOs and DON’Ts WHEN USING YOUR BLENDER
Do:
• Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that stated
on the bottom of the blender motor base.
• Always use the blender on a clean, sturdy and dry surface.
•
Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then add
remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are
uniformly mixed.
• Cut most foods into cubes approximately ½ inch (1.3 cm) to 1 inch (2.5
cm) to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses into pieces no
larger than ½ inch (1.3 cm).
• Use the measured pour lid to measure liquid ingredients such as alcohol.
Replace measured pour lid after ingredients have been added.
• Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the blender is
turned off. Never use metal utensils, as damage may occur to the blender
jar or cutting assembly.
• Place cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the cover on.
• Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar.
• Always remove locking ring, cutting assembly, and rubber gasket
before cleaning.
• When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food from the
sides of the blender jar and place food in the center of the blender jar,
over the cutting assembly.
• When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, breadcrumbs, nuts, spices,
etc., make sure the blender jar and cutting assembly are completely dry.
• If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender jar when blending, pulse
in short bursts.
• Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades stop
rotating between pulses.
Don’t:
• Don’t store food or liquids in your blender jar.
• Don’t place cutting assembly and locking ring onto motor base without
the blender jar attached.
• Do not attempt to mash potatoes, knead heavy dough, or beat egg
whites.
• Don’t remove blender jar while unit is on. Keep the blender jar cover
on the blender jar while blending.
• Don't twist locking ring from blender jar when removing blender
jar from motor base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.
• Don’t overprocess foods. Blender will achieve most desired results
in seconds, not minutes.
• Don’t overload blender. If the motor stalls, turn the blender off immedi -
ately, unplug the unit and remove a portion of the food, then continue.
• Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar while the motor is on.
• Don’t use any container or accessories not recommended by Cuisinart.
Doing so may result in injury.
• Don’t put hands inside the blender jar when blender is plugged in.
• Don’t put boiling liquids or frozen foods (except ice cubes or ½-inch
pieces of frozen fruit) into glass blender jar. Boiling liquids should cool
for 5 minutes before being poured into blender jar.
