• Cut food into pieces no larger than ¾" for use in the blender.
• When preparing foods that have several different kinds of ingredients,
always add liquid ingredients first.
• When ingredients splatter onto the sides of the jar or the mixture is
very thick, press the ON/OFF button to turn appliance off. Remove the
lid and use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the jar and to
redistribute the food, pushing food toward the blades. Replace the lid and
continue blending.
• When making bread crumbs or blending dry goods, make sure blending
jar and blade assembly are completely dry.

• The PULSE/ICE CRUSH function is helpful when short bursts of power

CRUSH button regularly, allow the blender to rest briefly, then continue.
• Do not run blender for longer than 1 ½ minutes at a time.
• Do not use if blender jar is chipped or cracked.

increase to a higher speed, if necessary.
• To stop blending at any time, press the ON/OFF button.
• Always operate the blender with the lid on the jar.
