Using your Product

Tamper – The tamper allows you to accelerate the process of very thick and/ or frozen mixtures that cannot be processed in a regular blender. If food is not circulating the machine may be overloaded or may have a trapped air bubble. Using the tamper helps to maintain circulation by preventing air pockets from forming. While the machine is running, remove the filler cap, and through the hole in the lid insert the tamper and use it to press ingredients into the blades as you make frozen ice creams, nut butters, etc.

The container should not be more than 2/3 full when the tamper is used during blending.

Do not use tamper for more than 30 consecutive seconds (to avoid stressing the motor).

You may need to move the tamper not only up and down, but also side to side.

Jar Sensor – The unit is supplied with a jar sensor on the base. This will prevent the motor or the control panel from starting if the blender jar is not properly placed on the base.

If the jar is removed from the base during operation the unit will stop. To restart the blender, turn the speed dial to “Off”, place the jar on the blender base and select the preferred speed to begin again.

NOTE: The motor will not restart unless the unit is turned OFF first.
