USING YOUR BLENDER
1. Place appliance on dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.
NOTE: Do not operate blender where dust or flour can be sucked up into the
vent openings, as this will cause damage to the blender.
2. Plug cord into a 120 volt AC electric outlet only.
3. Put liquids into the blender first unless recipes call for an alternate processing
sequence.
4. Prepare ingredients for blending. Cut all solid ingredients, i.e. fruits, vegetables,
or cheeses or meats into uniform pieces, ½ to 1-inch cubes. Place lid on
blender. NOTE: Always place one hand on mixing jar or lid to steady blender
while operating.
5. Blend foods according to the recipe or until the desired results are achieved.
NOTE: If scraping or stirring of contents is required, turn blender to the “off”
position and unplug from electrical outlet. Do not use metal utensils to stir as
scratching of mixing jar may occur.
A small amount of odor may occur during operation due to the release of
manufacturing oils – this is normal.
Crushing Ice
1. Fill mixing jar with approximately 2-cups of water. Add desired amount of ice
cubes.
2. Cover the mixing jar with the lid and insert the lid cap.
3. When crushing ice, hold blender stable with the palm of your hand over the
complete lid. Turn speed control to PULSE for 1 second and release. Pause for
approximately 2-seconds and repeat the 1-second PULSING until ice is crushed
to desired consistency.
4. Drain off any excess water.
HINT: approximately 12 cubes (2-cups) of ice make for a slush consistency.
CLEANING YOUR BLENDER
1. Switch blender to “OFF” position and unplug from electrical outlet
2. Wipe motor base, control knob, and cord with a damp cloth or sponge. To
remove stubborn spots, use a mild, non-abrasive cleanser.
3. To clean mixing jar, disassemble all parts. Carefully wash all parts accept for
motor base in warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. All parts except for
motor base can be washed in the top rack of dishwasher.
4. Store blender with lid off to prevent mixing jar odor.
