OPERATING THE BLENDER

6.Push the START OFF button. If necessary, the 1oz (30ml) Inner Lid can be used to measure and add ingredients while blending. Remove the Inner Lid and add ingredients while on speeds 1/MIX, 2/CHOP or 3/BLEND. When operating at higher speeds; with a Blender Jug filled at or near the ‘MAX’ line; or with hot contents; stop the Blender before adding ingredients.

NOTE

If speed 1-5 is selected, the Blender will automatically stop blending after 60 seconds. This is a safety feature and prevents over-processing. If necessary, restart the Blender by pushing the START OFF button.

In addition to the 5 speed settings, the Blender features 3 additional settings:

SMOOTHIE and ICE settings

•These are pre-programmed cycles which automatically adjust the blending times and speeds to optimize blending results. Rotate the START OFF button to the SMOOTHIE or ICE setting then push to start. The pre-programmed cycle will commence then automatically switch off. You may notice the blending speed change mid-cycle, this is normal.

•Process up to one standard ice cube tray or 12-14 standard ice cubes at one time. The type of ice used will affect the consistency of the crushed ice. To create even, powdery snow for icy drinks and cocktails, use the ICE setting and large, solid, dry ice that has come straight from the freezer (22ºF / -5.6ºC, or below). Small, slightly melted or hollow ice may result in a coarser ice, perfect for use as a base for fresh oysters.

PULSE setting

•For ingredients that require short bursts of power, such as thick or coarse mixtures, select the PULSE setting. Rotate the START OFF button to the PULSE setting. Press the START OFF button each time you want to pulse the mixture.

•To stop blending at any time, press the START OFF button. Lower the Safety Locking Arm and ensure the blades have completely stopped before removing the Blender Jug from the Motor Base.

NOTE

If necessary, turn the Blender off and ensure the blades have completely stopped before using a plastic spatula to occasionally stir or scrape down the sides of the Blender Jug. Replace the Lid before recommencing blending. Do not use metal utensils as these may damage the blades or Blender Jug.

8.After each use, remove the Blade Assembly with the Silicon Gasket still in place, from the Blender Jug.

Disassemble the Silicon Gasket from the Blade Assembly. Wash the Blender Jug, Lid, Inner Lid, Removable Silicon Gasket and Removable Blade in warm soapy water or in the dishwasher (see Cleaning the Blender, page 39). Alternatively, immediately fill the Blender Jug halfway with warm (not hot) water and add 1-2 drops of dishwashing liquid. Place the Blender Jug on the Motor Base. Select speed 1/MIX and run the Blender for 10-20 seconds. Remove the Blender Jug and discard the contents. Rinse the Blender Jug with warm water until clean.
