Operating your Breville Powermax

Tips on how to best use your Breville Powermax

Before first use

Remove all promotional labels and wash the blender jug in warm, soapy water.

Dry thoroughly.

1.Place the motor base on a flat, dry surface and ensure that the Powermax is unplugged and the speed control dial is set to the OFF position.

2.Place jug on motor base.

3.Add food or liquid into the blender jug and place the lid (with removable inner lid locked into place) firmly on top of the jug and turn clockwise until it locks into position.

4.Plug into a 230/240v power outlet and switch ‘ON’.

5.Turn the speed control dial to the required speed (1 or 2) to commence blending. The speed can be changed at any time during the blending process.

For ingredients that require short bursts of power, use the PULSE setting, ideal for grinding chocolate, crushing ice, grinding herbs and nuts.

The maximum liquid capacity is 1.25 litres. Do not add liquids past this measurement indicated on the side of the blender jug.

Note

6.To add liquid ingredients through the inner lid, such as oil, during blending, turn the inner lid anti-clockwise until it has unlocked and then remove. Once the ingredients have been added, line up the two locking lugs with the grooves in the lid. Insert the inner lid and turn it clockwise until it has locked into place.

7.During the blending process, you may find that ingredients stick to the sides of the blender jug. To push the food back onto the blades, turn the speed selector dial to the OFF position and switch off at the power outlet. Use a plastic spatula to scrape down the sides of the jug before recommencing blending.

If any moisture or liquid appears on top of the motor base, wipe immediately with paper towelling.

Note

Do

•	Speed 1 (low speed) is best for emulsions such as
	mayonnaise, dressings, marinades and foods which
	require mixing until just combined, such as batters.
•	Speed 2 (high speed) is best for pureeing,
	crumbing, thickening, creaming and grinding.
•	Use Pulse for foods that only require short bursts of
	power such as herbs, nuts and ice.
• Ensure all parts have been thoroughly washed and
	dried before assembly.
•	Ensure the blender is correctly assembled before
	operating (see page 5).
•	Ensure base of jug is thoroughly dry before placing
	onto blender base before use.
•	Ensure the blender is placed on a clean, dry surface
	to operate.
•	Liquids should be placed into blender before solid
	ingredients, except where specified in recipes.
•	All foods should be cut into cubes (approx. 2-3cm
	square) to achieve an even result.
•	When required use a plastic or rubber spatula to
	wipe food down sides of jug when blender is in the
	OFF position and has been switched off at power
	outlet. Ensure blades have stopped rotating.
	Do not use metal utensils as they may damage the
	blades or jug.
•	Ensure lid is locked on jug firmly and the inner lid
	is in position before operating blender. Do not
	operate blender without the lid on. To add
	additional ingredients whilst blending remove inner
	lid and place ingredients through the opening in
	the middle of the lid.
•	When crushing ice, add 1 cup of water as this will
	aid in the ice crushing process. Continue pulsing
	until the ice is completely crushed and has a snow

Don’t

•Do not blend dry, thick or heavy mixture for more than 60 seconds without turning off the blender and stirring the ingredients, then continue blending. For normal blending tasks, eg. Mayonnaise, dressings etc., do not operate for longer than 3 minutes at one time.

•Do not place any objects, other than food, into the jug whilst the motor is running.

•Do not use the jug to store food.

•As air does not circulate when blending, the blender will not beat egg whites, knead dough or mash potatoes.

•Never remove the jug while the blender is operating. Always switch off at the power outlet before removing jug.

•Overloading the blender with more than the specified quantity could cause the motor to stall, turn the blender OFF, unplug from power outlet and remove a portion of the mixture before continuing.

•Do not exceed the maximum liquid level of 1.25 litres.

•Do not process boiling liquids or hot ingredients, let them cool before placing into the jug.

NEVER PLACE ANYTHING OTHER THAN FOOD AND LIQUIDS IN THE POWERMAX WHILST THE MOTOR IS RUNNING. NEVER REMOVE THE BLENDER JUG FROM THE MOTOR BASE UNLESS THE BLENDER IS SWITCHED TO OFF AND THE BLADES HAVE STOPPED. OTHERWISE DAMAGE TO THE DRIVE COUPLING MAY OCCUR.
