Operating your Breville ikon™ Blender continued
To stop blending at any time, press the ‘Stop’
button or the selected function button. The
‘Power’ button can also be pressed, but
this will also turn the appliance off and all
illuminations will go out.
The maximum amount of ice cubes the
blender can blend at any one time is 1
standard ice tray or 250g.

Step 9

For ingredients that require short bursts of
power, select the ‘Pulse’ function. The ‘Pulse’
button will illuminate and remain illuminated
while the button is depressed. Press the ‘Pulse’
button in short bursts until blending is complete.
Use the ‘Pulse’ button when the food that is
being processed is too thick or coarse to
circulate within the blender jug.

Step 10

At the end of use, always ensure the blender is
turned off by pressing the ‘Power’ button on the
control panel. Then switch the appliance off at
the power outlet and unplug the cord. Ensure
the motor and blades have completely stopped
before attempting to move the appliance, or
when the Breville ikon™ Blender is not in use
and before disassembling, cleaning and storing.
During the blending process, ingredients may
stick to the side of the blender jug. To push the
food back onto the blades, press the ‘Power’
button on the control panel and switch off at
the power outlet and remove the power cord.
Remove the lid and use a plastic spatula to
scrape down the sides of the jug. Replace the
lid before recommencing blending.
If any moisture or liquid appears on top of
the motor base during blending, press the
‘Power’ button on the control panel, switch
off at the power outlet and remove the power
plug. Remove the blender jug. Wipe the motor
base immediately with a dry cloth or paper
towelling to absorb the liquid. Check the
blending jug is correctly assembled.

Overload protection system

The motor is protected from burning out by
an automatic, temperature operated, cut-out
switch. If the blender is overloaded or operated
continuously for too long, the motor may
overheat. If this happens, the safety cut-out
switch will prevent the blender from operating.
To operate the blender again, you must switch
off at the power outlet, unplug and allow to
cool for approximately 30 minutes. Once the
motor has fully cooled, it is ready for use again.
