GETTING STARTED
ON | OFF
The ON | OFF button powers the
unit into READY mode.
READY mode
The blender will default to MANUAL.
MANUAL FEATURES
Speed control dial
There are 12 speed settings from
STIR through to MILL.
STIR mixes more delicate foods with a
slow stirring motion and light pausing
to fold ingredients together.
MILL is the fastest setting, and is ideal
for milling nuts, grains and seeds.
The blender is programmed to allow
manual speeds to run for 6 minutes
before automatically stopping.
PAUSE | PLAY
Pauses and holds the speed and timer for up to
2 minutes. Press PAUSE | PLAY again
to resume.
It is also activated if the jug is removed
from base during use. Replace jug, and
press PAUSE | PLAY again to resume.
Repeat function
If the START | CANCEL button is
pressed when using the manual speed
dial, or if the timer finishes, the current
speed setting will be held for 2 minutes
to allow a quick repeat of the cycle.
Pressing the START | CANCEL
button will re-start this cycle.
If you want to clear the previous speed
from the memory, press and hold the
START | CANCEL button for 2 seconds.
Sleep
After 2 minutes of inactivity, LCD powers
off, and the ON | OFF button flashes
red. After 5 minutes of inactivity, the
blender turns OFF completely. Press
the ON | OFF button to reactivate.
Count-up timer
If the timer isn’t set, the blender timer counts
up in seconds as it blends. When using the
timer this way, the blender will stop after 6
minutes, or you can cancel blending manually.
Count-down timer
The alternative to running the
blender in count-up mode is to set
the blending time before starting.
PRESET PROGRAMS
If the blender is running and you press
a different preset button, it will switch
to that program without stopping.
PULSE | ICE CRUSH
Optimized to crush ice, and has an intelligent
sensor to stop the motor when ice is done.
This cycle is also ideal for processing other
foods that need sudden bursts of power.
SMOOTHIE
Optimized to combine and aerate frozen and
liquid ingredients together. The SMOOTHIE
function has a unique processing technique
that blends the denser ingredients at
lower speed, then increases in speed as
ingredients thicken. This will happen
several times while blending smoothies. The
programming also circulates the ingredients
for maximum aeration and a creamy texture.
GREEN SMOOTHIE
Optimized to break down whole hard
ingredients like fruits, leafy greens and
seeds, and allows them to blend together
with other soft and liquid ingredients.
FROZEN DESSERT
Optimized to break down and combine
frozen ingredients quickly. Use the
frozen dessert wand for best results.
SOUP
This preset program runs for 6 minutes to
blend and heat ingredients to make soups.
The program has a slow start to combine
ingredients before running at high speed, and
ends with a couple of stirs to release
any steam bubbles that may
have formed in the soup.
Do not exceed 40oz. (1.2L) when blending
hot liquids.
WARNING
Never blend boiling hot liquids.
Allow temperature to drop before
putting into the jug for blending.
AUTO CLEAN
Use to remove most of the ingredients off
the blender walls and blades. Add 2 cups
(around 500ml) warm soapy water, and
press the AUTO CLEAN button. For harder
to clean, sticky or thick ingredients, add ½
teaspoon of dish liquid detergent for extra
cleaning power. For best results, run the
auto clean cycle immediately after use.
WARNING
Lifting the jug during use damages
the coupling. Do not lift jug
until motor has stopped.
