TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

Quick tips

Using the Blender_
• Stop the Blender before using utensils in
the pitcher. Use a rubber spatula to mix
ingredients only when the Blender is off.
Never use any utensil, including spatulas,
in the pitcher while the motor is running.
• The Blender is capable of handling hot
ingredients. Cool hot foods, if possible,
before blending.
• For best results, when blending hot food
or liquids, do not fill the Blender pitcher to
the top. Secure the lid, remove the center
ingredient cap and place a towel over the
top.
• The blender is not intended to be used as
a heating device.
Magnetic blending
• Be aware that the Blender jar and Blender
base contain magnets that may attract
other items. For example, the jar may
attract adjacent metal utensils when
placed on a countertop.
• Metal items may also be attracted to
the Blender base if jar is not in place.
However, the Blender will not run
without the jar and lid in place.
• Check that jar bottom is free of small
magnetic debris before each use.
Blending on var_iable speed
• For mixtures blended on the Variable
Speeds setting, start the blending process
at a lower speed to thoroughly combine
the ingredients. Then increase to a
higher speed, as desired. You'll find that
the pre-set recipe programs will make
blending easier by varying the speed level
automatically.
• Because the Blender can work without
user intervention, the Variable Speed
function will automatically turn off after
approximately 2 minutes to ensure it does
not run longer than intended and the
recipe does not get overblended. If you
want to blend longer, reset the Blender to
the "OFF/O" position and run it again as
needed.
Using the ingr_edient feed
• If desired, you can remove center
ingredient cap to add ingredients while
the Blender is operating.
• The ingredient cap and funnel will need
to be washed even if ingredients are not
added through the ingredient feed.
• For thorough processing of ingredients,
add them early in the cycle so that the
Blender can process them fully.
• If chunks of fruit and vegetables are
desired, add the ingredients towards
the end of the blending cycle.
• If the ingredient cap does not fully
seat, make sure the funnel is fully in
the down position. If you are having
trouble, rotate either the funnel or the
cap until you find the correct position.
• Wipe out inner funnel liner after each use.
Cr_ushing ice
• Ice directly from the freezer will crush
better than partially melted ice for snow.
• Smaller ice cubes can be chopped or
crushed faster than large ones.
• For best results, crush ice by adding
it through the ingredient feed as the
Blender is running.
