Pulsing
Follow these steps to set the blender to pulse with short bursts of power.
Step 1: Press the power button and the indicator light will flash.
Step 2: Press the “Pulse” button.
This button turns the blender on and, when released, turns the blender off creating short bursts of power.
•Pulsing allows you to chop ingredients into pieces rather than processing them until smooth.
•Pulsing works well for chopping ingredients such as fruits, nuts, vegetables, bread crumbs and cracker crumbs.
•For best results, allow the blades to stop between pulses so the food in the blender jar settles around the blade.
