How to operate your
1.Set the container on the motor base by aligning it over the centering pad anchored to the base. (Motor must be completely stopped before positioning container.) Containers are not to be used for hard, dry materials. Avoid running the blender with the container empty.
2.Place liquids and soft foods in container first, solid items and ice last. Prepare food by cutting or breaking into
3.Always use a lid when blending. If blending hot ingredients, the lid must be securely in place. When processing hot liquids, DO NOT use the
4.Select desired speed setting. Most foods are blended on HIGH speed. Start heavy or thick foods on the recommended speed then switch to HIGH once the mixture begins processing. If mixture stops circulating insert the tamper through the lid while blending (see page 11), or stop the motor, remove container and stir or scrape the mixture from the sides of container into the center using a rubber spatula. Replace the lid and continue blending.
Warning: If you detect a change in the sound of the machine or if a hard or foreign object comes into contact with the blades, do not serve the drink/food. Inspect your blade assembly for loose, nicked or missing parts. If parts are loose, missing or nicked replace with new blade assembly. (See page 10).
5.To prevent possible splashing, lightly rest your hand on the lid while turning the machine on (except when processing hot liquids).
6.Due to the speed of the machine, processing times are greatly reduced over standard machines. Until you become accustomed to the speed, count your time carefully by watching the second hand of a clock, or count slowly to avoid over blending.
7.After blender has been turned off, wait until the blade has come to a complete stop before removing the lid or container from the motor base. Note: The thermal protector shuts the motor off to protect it from overheating. To restart, wait for motor to cool down with the power off (up to 30 minutes). Note: Cooling may be quickened by placing the motor base in a refrigerator or a cool spot. (Unplug first.) To speed up the process try circulating the air with a vacuum or fan aimed at the bottom of the base. When this happens, review your processing techniques and your instructions. Your recipes may: 1) be too thick - add liquid; 2) be processed too long at too low a speed setting. Use HIGH speed whenever possible. If the motor seems to be overheating (and the thermal overload protector has not turned the machine off), remove the container from the base. Set
the dial on LOW (#10). Turn the machine ON and let the machine run for one minute.
8.Up to 6 feet (1.8 meters) of power cord is available for use and is secured by plastic cord retainer clips underneath the motor base. Do not let the power cord hang over edge of counter or touch hot surfaces.

4a. If mixture stops circulating, you have likely trapped an air bubble. Either insert the tamper through the lid while blending, or stop the motor remove the container from the base and stir or scrape the mixture from the sides of container into the center using a rubber spatula to press any air bubbles away from the blades. Replace the lid and continue blending.
Note: START/STOP TIMER switch on your machine is lit when power is on. Avoid moveable parts. The timer stops working if machine is overloaded on low speed. Reset by turning power off for 15 seconds.
Warning: If you detect a change in the sound of the machine or if a hard or
foreign object comes into contact with the blades, do not serve the drink. Inspect your blade assembly for loose, nicked or missing parts. If parts are loose, missing, or nicked replace with new blade assembly. (See page 10.)
4b. To prevent possible splashing, lightly rest your hand on the lid while turning the machine on (except when processing hot liquids).
4c. Due to the blending speed of the machine, processing times are greatly reduced over standard machines. Until you become accustomed to the speed, watch your mixture carefully to avoid
4d. If stopping the machine mid cycle, use the START/STOP switch, not the POWER switch. If the POWER switch was used, wait 30 seconds for power to recycle and the timer to reset before resuming operation.
5.After blender has been turned off, wait until blade comes to a complete stop before removing the lid or container from the motor base.
Note: The thermal protector shuts the motor off to protect it from overheating. To restart, wait for motor to cool down with the power off (up to 30 minutes). When this happens, review your processing techniques and your instructions. Your recipes may be too thick or have too much material in them.
Cooling may be quickened by placing the motor base in a refrigerator or a cool spot. Unplug first. To speed up the process try circulating the air with a vacuum or fan aimed at the bottom of the base. If the motor seems to be over heating (and the thermal overload protector has not turned the machine off), remove the container from the base. Set the timer for 20 seconds. Turn the machine ON and let the machine run for 20 seconds. Repeat this step 3 times for a total of 1 minute.
