USING YOUR PRODUCT
Tamper – The tamper allows you to accelerate the process of very thick and/
or frozen mixtures that cannot be processed in a regular blender. If food is not
circulating the machine may be overloaded or may have a trapped air bubble. Using
the tamper helps to maintain circulation by preventing air pockets from forming.
While the machine is running, remove the filler cap, and through the hole in the lid
insert the tamper and use it to press ingredients into the blades as you make frozen
ice creams, nut butters, etc.
The container should not be more than 2/3 full when the tamper is used during
blending.
Do not use tamper for more than 20 consecutive seconds (to avoid stressing the
motor).
You may need to move the tamper not only up and down, but also side to side.
Interlock – The unit is supplied with an interlock on the base. This will prevent the
motor or the control panel from starting if the blender jug is not properly placed on
the base.
If the jug is removed from the base during operation the unit will stop. To restart the
blender, turn the speed dial to “Off”, place the jug on the blender base and select
the preferred speed to begin again. The motor will not restart unless the unit is
turned OFF first.
Blending Tips
• Do not operate for more than 10 minutes at a time.
• Jug should be at least 25% full at all times for optimal performance.
• Filler cap should always be assembled to the lid and locked when blending on
the soup program.
• Use High speeds as much as possible for whole food juices, soups, shakes,
frozen mixtures, making purées and nut butters. Processing times will generally
be less than one minute (most take less than 30 seconds). High speed provides
the best quality of refinement, breaking down ice, frozen fruit, whole fruits or
vegetables to a smooth lump-free consistency.
• Never blend without the lid firmly in place on the jug.
• If on High speed the food is not circulating, try using the tamper. If this is also
not working, try using a slower speed. Once the food begins to circulate again,
you can switch back to a High speed.
• Due to the power of the machine, it is normal for it to be fairly loud during
operation. Through the blending cycle, the noises may change, but there is no
need to be concerned.
Ice Crushing: For optimal ice crushing, fill the jug with preferred amount of ice.
Then fill with water just above where the ice stops. Use the speed dial to blend
on High for a few seconds. Then drain out the excess water and you are left
with a jug filled with great consistent ice!
