Blending Tips
Crushing Ice
For best performance, when a recipe calls for liquid, place the liquid in blender jar followed by the ice cubes. Ensure ice cubes are separated. When only crushed ice is desired, add 1 cup (250 ml) of ice cubes to jar. Place lid on blender jar then Pulse on any of the 5 pulse speeds. Allow blades to come to a complete stop between pulses. Continue until ice is crushed to desired consistency. For best results always crush ice immediately after removing from freezer.
General
