BREVILLE
RECOMMENDS
SAFETY FIRST

At Breville we are very safety
conscious. We design and
manufacture consumer
products with the safety of you,
our valued customer, foremost
in mind. In addition we ask
that you exercise a degree of
care when using any electrical
appliance and adhere to the
following precautions.

READ ALL
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
USE AND SAVE FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE

• Remove any packaging
material and promotional
labels before using the
blender for the first time.

• To eliminate a choking
hazard to young children,
remove and safely discard
the protective cover fitted
to the power plug of the
appliance.

• Do not place the blender
near the edge of a counter­top or table during
operation. Ensure that
the surface is level, clean
and free of water, flour
and other substances.
Vibration during operation
may cause the appliance
to move.

2

• Do not place the blender
on or near a hot gas or
electric burner, or where it
could touch a heated oven.

• Do not use the blender
on uneven metal surfaces
for example, a sink drain
board.

• Always ensure the blender
is properly assembled
before use. Refer to
Assembling your Breville
product.

• Use only the blender jug
and lid supplied with the
blender.

• Always ensure the blender
lid is firmly positioned
on the blender jug before
operating.

• Do not leave the blender
unattended when in use.

• Always ensure the blender
is turned off by pressing
the POWER button on
the control panel, then
unplug the cord. Make
sure the motor and blades
have completely stopped

before attempting to move
the appliance, or when
the Blender is not in use
and before disassembling,
cleaning and storing.

• If food becomes lodged
around the blending
blade, turn the blender off
by pressing the POWER
button on the control
panel, then unplug the
cord. Make sure the motor
and blades have stopped
before removing the jug
from the motor base. Use a
spatula to dislodge or stir
the food before continuing.
Do not use fingers as the
blades are sharp.

• Keep hands, fingers,
hair, clothing, as well as
spatulas and other utensils
away from the blender
jug during operation.
Never place your fingers,
hands or utensils inside
the blender jug without
unplugging the appliance
from the power outlet.

3

• In the unlikely event of an
excessive load, the blender
is equipped with electronic
protection which will safely
shut down the unit. If this
occurs, unplug the blender
and allow it to rest for
30 minutes. None of the
recipes in this instruction
book are considered a
heavy load.

• Be careful when handling
the blending blade
assembly as the blades are
very sharp. Be careful when
emptying the blender
jug and during cleaning.
Mishandling of the blades
may cause injury.

• Do not remove the blender
jug from the motor base
while in operation.

• Do not use the blender for
anything other than
food and/or beverage
preparation.

• Do not operate the blender
without food or liquid in
the blender jug.

• Do not process hot or
boiling liquids. Allow to
cool before placing into the
blender jug.

• Do not subject the blender
jug to extremes of hot or
cold, for example placing a
cold jug in hot water or
vice versa.

• Always visually inspect
the blade assembly before
each use. If the blades
appear bent or damaged,
or if discoloration of the
plastics noted, please
contact Breville Consumer
Service.

• Keep the appliance clean.
Refer to care and cleaning.

• The motor is protected
from burning out by an
automatic, temperature
operated, cut-off switch. If
the blender is overloaded
or operated continuously
for too long, the motor may
overheat. If this happens,
the buttons will start to
flash and the safety cut­off switch will prevent the
blender from operating.

4

To operate the blender
again, you must unplug
and allow to cool for
approximately 30 minutes.
Once the motor has fully
cooled, it is ready for use
again.

• This appliance is equipped
with a power cord having
a grounding wire with
a grounding plug. The
appliance must be
grounded using a 3-hole
properly grounded outlet.
In the event of an electrical
short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of
electrical shock.

Assembly

BEFORE FIRST USE

Before using your Breville product for the first
time, remove any packaging material and
promotional labels. Ensure the appliance is off
and the power cord is unplugged.

Wash the lid, inner lid, blender jug and blade
assembly (refer to Disassembling the blender)
of the Breville product in warm, soapy water
with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
The motor base can be wiped with a damp
cloth. Dry thoroughly.

The lid, inner lid, blade assembly and silicon
seal may be washed in the dishwasher in the
top shelf only on a standard wash. The blender
jug may be placed in the bottom shelf.

NOTE

Ensure that the silicon seal is carefully placed
completely around the blade assembly, prior
to inserting into the jug, as this will prevent
leakages.

1. To assemble the blender jug, place the
silicon seal onto the blade assembly.

2. Turn the blender jug upside down and
insert the blade assembly into the jug base.

3. Turn the blade removal system counter­clockwise until firmly screwed into position.

4. Place the motor base on a flat, dry surface
such as a counter-top. Ensure that the motor
base is off and the power cord is unplugged.

NOTE

• When using your blender for the first time,

you may notice an odor coming from the
motor. This is normal and will dissipate
with use.

• When the blender jug is filled at or near the

MAX line, place one hand on the blender
lid to avoid displacement of the lid during
operation. Do not blend hot ingredients,
allow to cool before placing into the
blender jug.

• Operate the blender only for the appropriate

amount of time required. The Blender will
automatically stop blending on the Blend
function after 120 seconds (2 minutes) and
after 60 seconds (1 minute) on the smoothie
and ice/Auto Pulse functions to avoid over
processing.

• The Smoothie function has a unique

processing technique that blends the
denser ingredients at a lower function,
then increases as ingredients thicken.
This may happen several times while
blending smoothies.

• During the blending process, ingredients

may stick to the sides of the blender jug. To
push the food back onto the blades, press
the POWER button to turn the blender
off and and remove the power cord from
the power outlet. Remove the lid and use a
plastic spatula to scrape down the sides of
the jug. Replace the lid before recommencing
blending.

• If the blades become stuck, the blender will

automatically turn off. To reset, turn the
blender off, clean jug with spatula and then
turn back on and the blender will reset.

• If any moisture or liquid appears on top of

the motor base during blending, press the
POWER button on the control panel and
remove the power plug. Remove the blender
jug. Wipe the motor base immediately with
a dry cloth or paper towelling to absorb the
liquid. Check the blender jug is correctly
assembled.
