CAUTION: Never insert your hands in the
pitcher as the blades are sharp. Always use a
spatula to dislodge food that has stuck to the
sides of the pitcher.
15 Make sure that the unit is unplugged when
not in use.
TIPS:
• Use low speed settings (1-3) when blending
drinks and other blended items.
• Use medium speed settings (4-6) when
frozen blending, ice crushing or grinding dry
ingredients.
• Use high speed settings (7-10) when
creating purees such as sauces, dips and
restaurant quality glazes. Top blades are
needed to power through tough ingredients
like ice, solid fruits and vegetables. If silky
smooth results are desired, push down on
the power toggle to turn off the power,
carefully remove the Top Stacked Blade
Assembly , replace the lid and continue
processing using only the bottom blades.
• For softer ingredients, the bottom fixed
blades are enough to fully process in one
step.
• For thicker consistencies, remove the lid and
the Top Stacked Blade Assembly carefully
(by the shaft), then empty the contents from
the pitcher.
