OPERATING YOUR BLENDER (continued)

DOs and DON’Ts WHEN USING YOUR BLENDER:

DO

1.Always add liquid ingredients to the glass jar first, then add remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are uniformly mixed.

2.Cut foods into cubes approximately 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) to 1 inch (2.5 cm) to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all cheeses into pieces no larger than 1/2 inch (1.3 cm).

3.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 glass jar or blade assembly.

4.When scraping the glass jar with a spatula, remove the food from the sides of the jar and place food in center of jar, over the blade assembly.

5.When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, bread crumbs, nuts, spices, etc. make sure the glass jar and blade assembly are completely dry.

6.If food tends to stick to the sides of the glass jar when blending, pulse in short bursts. Pulses should be short bursts. Space the pulses so the blades stop rotating between pulses.

7.Keep the glass jar lid on the blender while blending.

DON’T

1.Do not use the blender as a storage container. Keep it empty before and after use.

2.Never blend more than 44 ounces (1.3 liters) or more than 34 ounces (1 liter) for frothy liquids like milk shakes. If the motor stalls, turn the blender OFF, unplug the unit and remove a portion of the food, then continue.

3.For smoothie recipes, never blend frozen ingredients that have formed a solid mass during freezing. Break it up before adding to the glass jar.

4.Do not put dry ingredients into the blender before switching “on”. If necessary, cut them into pieces; remove the ingredient cap; then, with the machine running, drop them through one by one. Keep your hand over the opening. Empty regularly.

5.To ensure a long life for your blender, never run it longer than 60 seconds. Switch the blender “off” as soon as you have the right consistency.

6.Do not place blade assembly and sealing ring onto base without glass jar attached.

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

8.Do not over-process foods. Blender will achieve most desired results in seconds, not minutes.
