THINGS TO DO AND NOT TO DO
DO:
• Use only the line voltage and frequency as specified on the bottom of the Blender.
• Always operate Blender on a clean, dry surface to prevent air from carrying foreign material
or water into the motor.
• Put liquid portions of recipes into Blender container first unless the instructions in recipes
specify otherwise.
• Cut all firm fruits and vegetables, cooked meats, fish and seafoods into pieces no larger
than 3/4 inch (1.8 cm) to 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cut all kinds of cheeses into pieces no larger
than 3/4 inch (1.8 cm).
• Use rubber spatula to push ingredients to be chopped into liquid portion of recipe
ONLY when motor is OFF.
• Place cover firmly on Blender container before starting, and rest hand on the container cover
when starting and running motor.
• Remove heavy dips and spreads, nut butters, mayonnaise and products of similar consistency
by removing the processing assembly and pushing the mixture out through the bottom opening
into serving dishes or storage container.
• Pour mixture of liquid or semi-liquid consistency, such as muffin and cake batter,
from Blender container.
• Allow cooked vegetables and broth to cool before pouring into Blender container for processing.
• If the motor seems to labor when processing at one of the lower speeds, switch to the next higher
speed to prevent overloading the motor.
• Use a MINI-BLEND
®
or 5-cup Blender container to process citrus rind, coffee beans or
cereal grains. Use only glass Blender container to process whole spices and hard cheese.

process mixtures too long. Remember, the Blender performs its tasks in seconds,
not minutes. It is better to stop and check the consistency after a few seconds than to overblend
and have a mushy or too finely ground product.
