Open the feeder cap when you’re working with hot
foods to vent steam. Tilt feeder cap away from you.
Keep hands and other exposed skin away from the
cover opening to prevent possible burns.
When you work with
hot
liquids, remove feeder cap
and start blending at a low speed. Then move to faster
speed. Do not add liquid over the ~-CUP
(11)
level.
Food
quantity
Blend only the amount of food suggested in this book. If you want greater amounts,
blend in batches. Using larger amounts may overload and wear the motor. You
might also get different results
from those
described.
Motcrbbors
Increase speed if motor labors while blending. This prevents motor wear.

food before blending again.
