5. Add ingredients to the Blender Container and secure the Lid by turn-
ing it clockwise to engage the locking tabs. NOTE: Do not fill the
Container more than 3/4 full, 4.5 cups (36 oz.). Never operate when
the Container is empty.
6. Insert the Measuring Cap into the center of the Lid and turn it about
1/4 turn (clockwise or counter clockwise) to engage the locking tabs.
The Measuring Cap may be removed as needed to add additional
ingredients during processing. However, when processing hot foods
or liquids, remove the Measuring Cap
to prevent pressure build-up.
7. At the start of the blending process, the powerful motor may cause
the liquid to surge against the Lid and cause leakage. To prevent leak-
age, as well as steadying the unit, place one hand firmly on top of the
Lid and select your desired blending speed. Never lean over the
Blender when it is started or while it is running. Remember to
always hold the Lid during use.
8. Plug the power Cord into a 120V AC electrical outlet. Turn the Control
Dial to the desired speed setting: 1 is the lowest speed; 3 is the high-
