Cooking and Blending

1.Place the motor base of your blender on a flat, stur- dy surface. It is important that the surface be clean and dry. Assemble the blender by following the Assembly instructions (page 4). Once the jar is assembled and is in position on the motor base, plug the blender into an electrical outlet.

2.Press the On/Off button. The blender is now in Standby mode.

3.Select the required time per the recipe. This can be adjusted throughout the cooking process, but a time must be selected to start the heater initially.

4.Add ingredients according to the recipe. You may add more ingredients by lifting the measuring cup from the lid and dropping ingredients through the lid opening. When making soup, fill the contents of the glass jar only to the 48-oz. level marked HOT. Always replace the measuring cup after adding ingredients. See Recipe Tips and Hints for cooking soups (recipe book, page 2).

CAUTION: Do not put hands into blender jar with blender plugged in.

NOTE: Do not use anything other than the measur- ing cup to cover or close lid opening. This prevents obstruction to necessary steam vents.

CAUTION: When blending hot liquids ensure vents in lid opening are clear and intended pour spouts are closed (lid is secured).

5.To remove blender jar lid, lift edge of cover upwards. Lifting from measuring cup will not remove lid.

CAUTION: Be careful of hot steam when removing lid.

6.To stir ingredients while cooking, use the Stir button.

7.When cooking time has finished, the blender will beep 4 times.

8.To blend soup always start on speed 1, gradually increasing to speed 2 or 3. Use only these recom- mended speeds when blending hot items. Turn the Blending control dial to stop when the desired con- sistency is reached.

9.Unplug the blender from the electrical outlet. Never remove the blender jar from the motor base until the blender is off. Do not twist the blender collar from the blender jar when removing jar from motor base.

CAUTION: When removing the jar use caution. The area underneath the collar may be extremely hot.
