Crushing Ice

Fill blender jar half-full with cold water. Add about 2 cups (500 ml) of ice cubes. Lock filler cap into lid and lock lid on blender jar. Press the ICY DRINK button. Continue until ice is crushed to desired consistency. Pour contents into colander or sieve to drain off water.

DO NOT CRUSH ICE WITHOUT LIQUID. Failure to follow these directions can result in damage to the blades, jar, blender, and possibly result in personal injury.

Hints for Best Use

NOTE: After extended blending, espe- cially dry food, you may notice a black film inside the top of the blender base. This is a normal, FDA-approved, food- grade lubricant used to ensure the long-life of your cutting assembly.

Processing hot foods or liquids in the blender may cause hot liquid to spurt out when the cover is removed.

Always remove the filler cap of the lid before blending hot foods or liquids. Keep hands and other exposed skin away from the cover opening to reduce risk of possible burns.

To add foods when blender is operating, remove filler cap from container lid and add ingredients through the opening.

Do not store food or liquids in the blender jar.

If blending action stops during blending or ingredients stick to sides of the jar, turn blender OFF. Remove cover and use a rubber spatula to push mixture toward blades.

Do not try to mash potatoes, mix stiff dough, whip egg whites, grind raw meat, or extract juices from fruits and vegetables. The blender is not made to perform these tasks.

If food being processed (solid food or ultra-thick beverages) will not dis- pense always pour from jar.
