Product Features

The following are some of the KitchenAid Blender’s unique product features (Fig. 1):

Figure 1

1.Stay-Put Lid with Clear, 60 ml Ingredient Cup: Provides a strong seal. The flexible lid will maintain its tight seal throughout the life of the blender.

The lid incorporates a removable 60 ml cup for convenience in measuring and adding ingredients.

2.Easy Pour 1.5 L Glass Pitcher: Glass pitcher resists scratches, stains, and odors. Pitcher is removable from locking collar for easy cleaning, and withstands a range of extreme temperatures. Easy pour spout provides smooth, drip-free pouring.

3.Locking Collar and Blade Assembly: Durable, one-piece blade design is built into the locking collar for easy handling and cleaning. Dishwasher-safe assembly keeps the blades from rotating until the pitcher is properly attached to the collar and put on the blender base.

4.Patented Stainless Steel Blade: Sharp oversized blade tines are positioned on four different planes for fast, thorough, and consistent blending.

5.Durable Steel-Reinforced Couplers: Commercial- quality couplers with 12 interlocking teeth provide direct transfer of motor power to the blade. Pitcher coupler is coated for quiet operation.

6.Die-Cast Metal Base: Heavy, die-cast metal base ensures stable, quiet operation when blending a full pitcher of ingredients. Four rubber feet on wide, solid base provide a no-slip, non-marring grip. Smooth and rounded, the base is easy to clean and features cord storage underneath.

7.Robust Motor: Rugged 0.9-horsepower motor supplies the power for superb performance with all blending tasks – from pureeing sauces to making chunky salsas, or uniformly crushing a pitcher of ice or frozen fruit within seconds for silky smoothies.

8.Intelli-Speed TM Motor Control: Exclusive Intelli- Speed TM control automatically works to keep speed constant – even through density changes when ingredients are added. This advanced KitchenAid design maintains an optimal blending speed for each culinary task and control setting.

9.Clean Touch Control Panel: Wipes clean in an instant. Smooth control pad has no crevices or cracks to trap ingredients.

10.Soft Start Blending Feature: The blender starts at a slower speed to pull food into the blade then quickly increases to selected speed setting. This design feature reduces start-up kick and allows hands-free operation.

11.Speed Selection Buttons: Create frozen drinks and puree sauces or soups in seconds. Blend with confidence, control, and consistency at all speed settings: STIR (), CHOP (), MIX (), PUREE (), and LIQUEFY (). The PULSE () mode works with all five speeds. The CRUSH

ICE () feature is designed specifically for crushing ice and will automatically pulse at staggered intervals for optimal results.

Preparing the Blender for Use

Before First Use

Before using your blender for the first time, wipe blender base with a warm sudsy cloth, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth. Wash pitcher, lid, locking collar and blade assembly, sealing ring and ingredient cup in warm, sudsy water. Rinse parts and wipe dry.
