OPERATING YOUR BLENDER
6. For Continuous Operation:
Fig. 8
Rest one hand on top of blender jar with
lid securely in place. Turn control dial to
desired speed to turn blender on.
Turn to OFF to turn blender off.
7. For Controlled Cycle Operation (Pulse):
Rest one hand on top of blender jar
with lid securely in place. Turn to "Pulse"
speed and hold for about 2
seconds (See Fig. 8). Release "Pulse"
speed and allow blades to coast to a
stop. Repeat procedure until contents
reach desired consistency. Release of
the "Pulse" speed turns the blender off.
NOTE: "Pulse" setting can be held longer than
2 seconds as needed.
WARNING:
Do not touch blades.
Always turn blender off and wait until
blades have stopped rotating before
moving jar or lid.
8. To add food or fruit to the jar while the
blender is running, remove the measuring
cup in the middle of the lid. Add the food or fruit through the hole
in the middle of the lid and then replace the measuring cup on lid.
NEVER start up the blender without the lid and measuring cup. The speed of the
blades will throw contents high up in the jar, and without the lid could spill out.

BLENDER TIPS AND TECHNIQUES

For quicker, easier blending, cut food into 2-in. long pieces before adding to blender
jar. To chop or grate either fresh or frozen fruit, cut fruit into pieces about 3/4 -inch
long.
To best circulate foods or fruit that are to be blended with liquid, pour the liquid into
the jar first, then add the solid foods or fruit.

1. Before cleaning, unplug the blender.
2. Rinse parts (jar, blade assembly, gasket, collar, lid and measuring cup inner lid)
immediately after blending for easier cleanup.
3. All removable parts can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher. The lid,
measuring cup, collar, gasket and blade assembly should be placed in the top
rack only. Disassemble all parts from each other before placing in the dishwasher.
The jars are bottom rack dishwasher-safe. Do not place the jar or any other parts
in boiling liquids.
CAUTION: The blender blades are sharp. Be very careful when washing them by
hand to avoid being cut.
4. The motor/base is designed to be resistant to liquids. If liquids spill into the
motor/base:
• Unplug the motor/base.
• Wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
• NEVER immerse the motor/base in water.
5. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleaners on base as finish may become
