How to operate your Blending Station® MP using the six Pre-Set Programmed Buttons.

The following is the basic MP settings of the six PRE-SET buttons (your machine’s PRE-SET buttons may differ due to program revisions or if your Blending Station MP was programmed specifically for your business).

•Button 1: (:13) Blends thin drinks with just juice and ice. Button 1 will ramp the blending speed to medium high for 13 seconds.

•Button 2: (:18) Blends light coffee drinks. Button 2 will ramp the blending speed to high for 18 seconds.

•Button 3: (:20) Creates a specialty drink with a thick viscosity. Button 3 will ramp the blending speed to high for 20 seconds.

•Button 4: (:15) This cycle is good for ice cream and regular coffee drinks. Button 4 increases to medium speed for 5 seconds and then ramps up slowly to high for 10 seconds.

•Button 5: (:20) Blend a regular smoothie on high. Button 5 increases to medium speed for 10 seconds and then ramps up slowly to high for 10 seconds.

•Button 6: (:25) Blend thick frozen fruits & hard ingredients for a thick but consistent smoothie. Button 6 increases to medium speed for 10 seconds and then ramps up slowly to high for 15 seconds.

1.Place liquids and soft foods in the machine’s container first, solid items and ice last. Prepare food by cutting or breaking into 1-3 inch (3-8 cm) pieces. Frozen fruit, especially, should be as small as practical. Thawed or partially thawed fruit is recommended. We recommend PROGRAMMED button 5 or 6 for heavy-duty blending.

2.Set the container on the motor base by aligning it over the centering pad anchored to the base. (Motor must be completely stopped before positioning container.) Containers are not to be used for hard, dry materials. Avoid running the Blending Station MP with container empty.

3.Always use a lid when blending. If blending hot ingredients, the lid must be securely in place.
