the use of three programmes or the use of

or Programmes.
Container: Millilitres, ounces and cups are
clearly marked.
CAUTION: Lids and tampers are not
interchangeable between different
container styles, types and sizes.
2-Part Lid: The 2-part Lid is easy to put on
and take off, and easy to clean. Always use
the lid and the lid cap when the machine is
in operation.
Snap the lid onto the container and leave in
place for a few minutes. Once the lid has been
left on the container, it will be much easier to
lock or remove.
Lid Cap: Insert through the lid and secure by
turning clockwise. Remove the lid cap to use
the tamper or to add ingredients.
PARTS AND FEATURES
Tamper: The tamper allows you to accelerate the process of very thick and/or frozen mixtures that cannot
be processed in a standard blender. Using the tamper maintains circulation by preventing air pockets from
forming during blending.
