Jars, 8-ounce (250 ml) or 30-ounce (950 ml), are available as accessories and are not
normally included with your Blender. For proper assembly and tightening instructions, see directions

or unscrew during processing. Do not wash any parts, including container, in an automatic
dishwasher. DO NOT fill MINI-BLEND

OW YOUR OSTERIZER® BLENDER WORKS
Your OSTERIZER
®
Blender is a multi-speed appliance which operates on a wide range of speeds
from very slow to very fast. This range of speeds makes food preparation easy, interesting
and also saves time because your OSTERIZER
®
Blender processes foods in seconds.
In addition, your OSTERIZER
®
Blender has two distinct methods of operation;
1
– CONTINUOUS run for blending, liquefying and fine chopping and
2 – CONTROLLED CYCLE BLENDING, used for coarse chopping pieces of food, such as
chopped vegetables, nuts or cheeses. There are several different ways of operating the
CONTROLLED CYCLE BLENDING feature but all involve turning the motor “on” and “off”
intermittently. During the “on” portion of the cycle, food is chopped and tossed away from
the blades. During the “off” portion of the cycle, the food is distributed around the blades to make
processing more uniform. IN THIS BOOK, THE CONTROLLED CYCLE BLENDING FEATURE
IS REFERRED TO AS A CYCLE.
NOTE:
A cycle consists of operating the Blender for about 2 seconds and then
allowing the blade to coast to a stop.
