HINTS FOR SETTING SPEEDS

Hints for Setting Speeds

To minimize splatter, always begin the blending process with the Variable

Speed Dial set to 1 and slowly increase the speed to the desired setting.

Use the highest setting called out in the recipe for as much of the processing time as possible to make whole-food juices, soups, shakes, frozen mixtures, purées, nut butters, and for grinding grains. Processing times will generally be less than one minute (most take less than 30 seconds). Higher speed provides the best quality of refinement.

Blending too long at too low of a speed setting will overheat the machine and cause the Automatic Overload Protection to turn off the machine. Blending on higher speed maximizes the motor’s cooling fan to avoid overheating.

If the mixture stops circulating, you may have trapped an air bubble. To resolve Insert the tamper through the lid plug and stir until it “burps.” If this does not work, press the On / Off switch to stop the motor. Remove the container from the motor base, and use a rubber spatula to press the air bubble away from the blades. Return the container to the motor base, replace the lid, and continue blending.

CAUTION

Never Start on Speeds Above 1 with Hot

Liquids to Avoid Possible Burns.

Escaping steam, splashes or contents may scald.

To secure the contents, lock the lid and lid plug securely in place prior to operating the machine.

Always start on Variable 1, slowly increase to 10.
