Do

•Use Low speeds (1 – 3) for light mixing and stirring such as dressings, marinades and batters and foods that require mixing until just combined .

•Use Medium speeds (4 – 6) for heavy mixes and chopping ingredients.

•Use High speeds (7 – 12) for blending, liquefying and pureeing ingredients.

•Use ‘PULSE/ICE CRUSH’ for foods that only require short bursts of power such as crushing ice or chopping nuts.

•Ensure all foods are cut into cubes (approximately 1 inch squares) where appropriate to achieve an even result.

•Blend thick mixtures when the blender is ¼ to ½ full as they will puree more efficiently.

•Place liquid ingredients (when using several ingredients) in the blender jug before solid ingredients, unless specified in the recipe.

•Stop the blender and scrape down the sides of the blender jug with a plastic or rubber spatula, once or twice while blending thick or dry mixtures.

Don’t

•Do not use metal utensils as they may damage the blades or blender jug.

•Do not put more than 2 cups of ingredients into the blender before blending begins. After the blending process has begun and the blades are turning you may slowly add extra liquid or ingredients through the inner cup opening if desired.

•Do not blend a heavy mixture for more than 10 seconds. For normal blending tasks, for example, mayonnaise, dressings , or liquid ingredients etc., do not operate for longer than 2 minutes and 1 minute for dry ingredients at one time without turning off the blender and stirring the ingredients, and then continue blending.

•Do not operate the blender without having the blender lid in position. To add additional ingredients while blending, remove the inner cup and place ingredients through the opening in the lid. When adding oil or other liquids during operation, slowly pour through the hole in the lid.

•Do not fill the blender jug above the ‘MAX’ line. When the blender jug is filled at or near the ‘MAX’ line, place one hand on the blender lid to avoid displacement of the lid during operation.

•Do not place any objects, other than food or liquid, into the blender while the motor is running.

•Do not use the blender to store food. The blender will not knead dough or mash potatoes.

•Do not remove the blender jug while the blender is operating. Always make sure the blender is off by turning the Variable Speed Dial to the ‘OFF’ position and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

•Do not overload the blender with more than the specified quantity of ingredients as doing so could cause the motor to stall, if this occurs always make sure the blender is off by turning the Variable Speed Dial to the ‘OFF’ position and unplug the cord. Remove a portion of the mixture from the blender jug before continuing.

•Do not place hot or boiling ingredients into the blender; allow to cool before placing into the blender jug.

WARNING

Avoid pressing the ‘PULSE /ICE CRUSH’ button when scraping down sides of jug or when lid is removed.
