Using the Pulse Feature

To pulse the ingredients in the blender, move the On/Off/Pulse Switch to the “Pulse” position and hold it for the desired length of time. The switch will instantly return to the “Off” position when released and the blender will stop. When pulsed, the blender operates at low speed for maximum control. The Pulse feature is great for blending jobs which require a delicate touch.

Using the Ingredient Cap

Ingredients can be added to the blender by removing the ingredient cap from the lid. To remove, rotate the cap counter-clockwise 1⁄2 turn and lift. Featuring 1 and 2 oz. (30 and 60 ml) volume lines, the cap can be used as a convenient measuring cup.

NOTE: When operating the blender at higher speeds, with a full jar, or with hot contents, stop blender before adding ingredients.

Overload, Jam, and Thermal Safeguards

The electronic controls of the blender will automatically shut off the unit when:

•The blender becomes overloaded due to a too-heavy ingredient mixture.

•The blender blades are jammed and will not rotate.

•The motor becomes overheated.

Please refer to the troubleshooting section on page 23 for more information.

Power-On Safeguard

If the blender is plugged in with the On/Off/Pulse Switch in the “On” position, the blender will not start. Please refer to the troubleshooting section on page 24 for more information.
