BLENDING GUIDE
Blending Speeds:
P= Pulse
0 = Off
1 = Low
2 = Medium
3 = High
1. General:
-Make sure the blending jar and lid with filler cap are in proper position. Blend for 5 to 30 seconds and check consistency. Continue blending until the desired consistency is reached.
-Keep hands and utensils out of the jar while blending to prevent serious injury. A scraper may be used, but must only be used when the blender is not run- ning.
-Do not try to mash potatoes, mix stiff dough, whip egg whites, grind raw meat or extract juice from fruits and vegetables. This blender is not made to perform these tasks.
2. Solids:
-Thick mixtures may require special attention during blending. Periodically turn off the unit and scrape the mixture off of sides of blending jar inward to- ward the blade. Replace the lid and continue blending. Select a higher speed if blending becomes sluggish.
-When the filler cap is removed,you can add solid ingredients a little at a time through the hole in the blender lid. Always cut solid foods such as vegetables and cheeses into small chunks (about ¾” to 1” long) before placing in the
blending jar.
3. Hot Ingredients:
-Processing hot foods or liquids in the blender may cause hot liquid to spurt out when the lid is removed. Always remove the filler cap from the lid before blending hot foods or liquids to vent steam. Keep hands and other exposed
skin away from the lid opening to reduce possible risk of steam burns.
4.Crushing Ice:
-Fill blending jar 1/3 full of cold water. Add about 2 cups (500ml) of ice cubes. Lock filler cap into lid and lock lid on the blending jar. Turn rotary control
knob to speed “3”. Continue until ice is crushed to desired consistency. Pour contents into colander to drain off water.
DO NOT CRUSH ICE WITHOUT LIQUID. Failure to follow these direc- tions can result in damage to the blades, jar and possibly result in personal in- jury.
