Cleaning and Maintenance

Always unplug your Cuisinart® SmartPower Premier™ 600-Watt Blender from the electrical outlet before cleaning. The blender is made of corrosion-resistant parts which are easy to clean. Before first use and after every use, clean each part thoroughly. Periodically check all parts before reassembly. If any part is damaged or blender jar is chipped or cracked, DO NOT USE BLENDER.

Remove the blender jar from the motor base by lifting straight up and away. Twist off the locking ring by turning counterclockwise.

Remove the cutting assembly and rubber gasket. Wash in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.

Place the locking ring in the upper rack of the dishwasher or wash in warm water.

CAUTION: Handle the cutting assembly carefully. It is SHARP and may cause injury. Do not attempt to remove blades from cutting assembly.

Remove the blender jar cover and the measured pour lid. Wash in warm, soapy water; rinse and dry thoroughly, or place in upper rack of dishwasher. The blender jar must be washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed and dried thoroughly. The blender jar can also be placed upside down in dishwasher.

Finally, wipe the motor base clean with a damp cloth to remove any residue, and dry thoroughly. Never submerge the motor base in water or other liquid, or place in a dishwasher.

Tip: You may wish to clean your blender cutting assembly as follows: Squirt a small amount of dishwashing liquid into assembled blender jar and fill halfway with warm water. Run on Low for 15 seconds. Repeat, using clean tap water. Empty blender jar and carefully disassemble parts. Wash cutting assembly, gasket and locking ring in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry all parts thoroughly.

DOs and DON’Ts WHEN USING YOUR BLENDER

Do:

•Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that stated on the bottom of the blender motor base.

•Always use the blender on a clean, sturdy and dry surface.

•Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then

add remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are uniformly mixed.

•Cut most foods into cubes approximately ½ inch (1.3 cm) to

1 inch (2.5 cm) to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses into pieces no larger than ½ inch (1.3 cm).

•Use the measured pour lid to measure liquid ingredients such as alcohol. Replace measured pour lid after ingredients have been added.

•Use a rubber or plastic spatula as needed, only when the blender is turned off. Never use metal utensils, as damage may occur to the blender jar or cutting assembly.

•Place cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the cover on.

•Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar.

•Always remove locking ring, cutting assembly, and rubber gasket before cleaning.

•When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food from the sides of the blender jar and place food in the center of the blender jar, over the cutting assembly.

•When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, bread crumbs, nuts, spic- es, etc, make sure the blender jar and cutting assembly are completely dry.

•If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender jar when blending, pulse in short bursts.

•Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades stop rotating between pulses.

Don’t:

•Don’t store food or liquids in your blender jar.

•Don’t place cutting assembly and locking ring onto motor base without the blender jar attached.

•Do not attempt to mash potatoes, knead heavy dough, or beat egg whites.

•Don’t remove blender jar while unit is on. Keep the blender jar cover on the blender jar while blending.

•Don't twist locking ring from blender jar when removing blender jar from motor base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.

•Don’t overprocess foods. Blender will achieve most desired results in seconds, not minutes.

•Don’t overload blender. If the motor stalls, turn the blender off immedi- ately, unplug the unit, and remove a portion of the food, then continue.

•Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar while the motor is on.

•Don’t use any container or accessories not recommended by Cuisinart. Doing so may result in injury.

•Don’t place hands inside the blender jar when blender is plugged in.

•Don’t add boiling liquids or frozen foods (except ice cubes or ½-inch pieces of frozen fruit) to glass blender jar. Boiling liquids should cool for 5 minutes before being placed in blender jar.
