DO
• Always place liquid ingredients into the container first, unless recipe
directs otherwise.
• Most foods require only seconds, not minutes, to process.
• Blend small amounts of solid food at a time for best results.
• Break or cut food into uniform 1”-2” size pieces and hard fibrous food
into uniform 1/2” pieces before processing. This will allow the food to
drop down around the blades for faster, more thorough blending
action.
• Always place lid assembly on container before turning blender on to
prevent splattering.
• To add foods while blender is operating, remove small clear insert on
lid and slowly add ingredients.
• The removable lid insert may be used as a 2 oz. measuring device.
• Always remove bones, pits, hard shells, seeds, and cores before
p ro c e s s i n g to avoid damaging the unit.
• If food sticks to sides of container and blending action stops, turn the
unit off, remove the lid assembly and carefully push food down using a
rubber spatula. Remove spatula, replace lid assembly and continue
blending.
• If motor labors while processing, turn knob to higher speed or remove
part of contents and blend in small batches.
