Note: Add liquid ingredients first, then follow with solid ingredients. This will provide more consistent blending and prevent unnecessary stress on the motor.

Note: To remove blender jar cover, lift edge of cover upward. Lifting measured pour lid will not remove cover.

3.TIMING YOUR RECIPES: The SmartPower Premier Duet™ 600-Watt Blender/Food Processor features a 5-minute Count-Up™Timer, so that you can time your recipes and guarantee perfect results. The timer begins counting from 0 as soon as you push your desired speed: High, Low, Pulse or Ice Crush. The timer will continue to count up even if you change speeds during blending. You can pause the timer by pausing the blending process. Do this by pushing the button correspon- ding to the speed at which you are currently blending. For example: If you are blending in Low speed and you push the Low speed button, the blender will stop blending and the timer will stop counting, but the unit will remain on. To continue blending and timing your recipe, push one of the speed buttons. The timer will also stop counting when it reaches 5:00 minutes. The timer will reset itself only when the Off button is pushed.

4.START BLENDING: Press the On button. The red LED indicator light will illuminate, indicating that the blender is turned on but no speed has been selected.

5.CHOOSE BLENDING SPEED: Press High or Low button to determine the speed at which you would like to blend the ingredients. Both the On indicator light and the activated speed indicator light will glow. The blender will now be functioning at the desired speed. It is possible to switch speeds without press- ing the Off button, by simply pushing the other speed button.

WARNING: FLASHING LIGHT INDICATES READY TO OPERATE. DO NOT TOUCH BLADES

Note: The Count-Up™timer will begin counting when the desired speed button is pushed. The timer will continue to count if you change speeds.

6.TO PAUSE OR STOP BLENDING PROCESS:

a. To Pause Blending Process:

Push the button corresponding to the speed at which you are currently blending. For example: If you are blending on High speed, push the High speed button and the blender will stop blending, but the unit will remain on.

Note: By pausing the blending process, you will also pause the timer. The timer will pause until you start blending again.

b. To Stop Blending Process:

Push the Off button when you are finished with your recipe and would like to turn the blender off.

Note: When you push the Off button, the timer will stop count- ing and the LED display will reset to 0:00. When the blender is turned back on and a speed button is pushed, the timer will begin to count from 0:00.

7.PULSE MODE: The pulse mode allows you to create a burst of power for quick, efficient blending. To use the pulse function, push the On button and the red LED indicator light will illuminate. Push the Pulse button, and the pulse LED indicator light will blink. Push and release the desired speed button. Repeat as desired. You determine the duration of each pulse. While pulsing, the LED indicator light will glow. The pulse function can be used to break apart larger pieces of food or to control the texture of food when chopping. The pulse function is also effective in starting the blending process when you do not want continuous power, or when processing items that do not require an extended amount of blending.

Note: The timer will count when you push or hold down the Pulse button. The timer will pause when you release the Pulse button.
