BLENDER OPERATION
1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart® SmartPower Duet® Blender/
Food Processor on a flat, sturdy surface. It is important that the
surface be clean and dry. Assemble the blender by following the
Assembly instructions. Once the jar is assembled and is in position
on the motor base, plug the Cuisinart
Food Processor into an electrical outlet.
2. Add all necessary ingredients to the blender jar and replace the
cover. You may add additional ingredients by lifting the measured
pour lid and dropping ingredients through the fill area. Replace the
measured pour lid after adding ingredients. Do not place hands into
blender jar with blender plugged in.
Note: Add liquid ingredients first, then follow with solid ingredients. This

Tip: Liquid ingredients can be measured in the measured pour lid, using
the measurement marking. Solid ingredients can be added by simply
dropping them through the fill area into the blender jar. Replace the
measured pour lid after adding ingredients.
Note: To remove blender jar cover, lift edge of cover upward. Lifting
measured pour lid will not remove cover.
3. To start blending: press the On button. The red On LED light will
flash, indicating that the blender is turned on but no speed has been
selected.
4. Press the desired blending speed: both the On indicator light and
the activated speed indicator light will glow. The blender will now be
functioning at the desired speed. It is possible to switch speeds
without pressing the Off button, by simply pushing the next desired
speed button.
5. To reset the blender: The unit has an advanced thermal resettable
fuse feature. If the event of an overload condition the unit will shut
down to protect the motor from overheating. When this happens, to
reset the unit, unplug the blender and let it cool down for a minimum
of 15 minutes. Then look to reduce the contents and/or clear any
jams, then restart as noted in the operating directions.
6. To stop the blending process: re-press the activated speed button.
The blending process will stop. The red On indicator light will
continue to flash to let you know that the blender is still on and can

or to control the texture of food when chopping. The Pulse function
is also effective in starting the blending process when you do not
want continuous power, or when processing items that do not
require an extended amount of blending.
8. To crush ice: Use blender jar only. The SmartPower Duet
®
Blender/
Food Processor motor is strong enough to crush ice without liquid at
any speed; however, for your convenience we have preset the best
speed for ice crushing. To give you greater control, the Ice Crush
function automatically operates as a Pulse function. To crush ice,
place ice cubes in the blender jar, and place the cover and the
measured pour lid on the blender jar. Press the On button. Press the
Ice Crush button in short pulses until ice is crushed to desired
consistency. See the Recipe Tips section on page 12 for more
details.
9. To dislodge food: use a rubber or plastic spatula to help remove
food lodged around the cutting assembly.
DO NOT USE SPATULA UNTIL YOU HAVE TURNED OFF AND
UNPLUGGED THE BLENDER. Replace the cover and measured
pour lid and continue blending if necessary. Make sure spatula is not
inside the blender jar before blending.
10. When finished blending: press the Off button, and unplug the
blender from the electrical outlet. Never remove the blender jar from
the motor base until pressing the Off button. Do not twist locking
ring from blender jar when removing jar from motor base. Simply lift
blender jar from motor base. Do not place hands into blender jar
with blender plugged in.
7. Pulse Mode: while the blender is turned on, you can create a burst

DO’S AND DON’TS WHEN USING
• When using food processor, pulses should be short bursts. Space
the pulses so the blades stop rotating between pulses.
YOUR BLENDER/FOOD
PROCESSOR
Do:
• Make sure the electrical outlet is rated at the same voltage as that
stated on the bottom of the blender motor base.
• Always use the motor base on a clean, sturdy and dry surface.
• Always add liquid ingredients to the blender jar first, then add
remaining ingredients. This will ensure that ingredients are uniformly
mixed.
• When using either appliance, cut most foods into cubes
approximately ½" to 1" to achieve a more uniform result. Cut all
cheeses into pieces no larger than ½".
• When using blender, use the measured pour lid to measure liquid
ingredients such as alcohol. Replace measured pour lid after
ingredients have been added.
• When using either appliance, use a rubber or plastic spatula as
needed, only when the blender is turned OFF. Never use metal
utensils, as damage may occur to the blender jar/work bowl or
cutting assembly.
• Place blender cover on firmly. Always operate the blender with the
cover on.
• Make sure locking ring is tightly attached to blender jar.
• After using blender, always remove locking ring, cutting assembly,
and rubber gasket before cleaning.
• When scraping the blender jar with a spatula, remove the food from
the sides of the blender jar and place it in the center of the blender
jar, over the cutting assembly.
• When chopping fresh herbs, garlic, onion, zest, bread crumbs, nuts,
spices, etc., make sure the blender jar and cutting assembly are
completely dry.
• If food tends to stick to the sides of the blender jar or food
processor work bowl during use, pulse in short bursts.
Don’t:
• Don’t store food or liquids in your blender jar or food processor
work bowl.
• When using blender, don’t place cutting assembly and locking ring
onto motor base without the blender jar attached.
• Blender or food processor will not mash potatoes, knead dough, or
beat egg whites.
• Don’t remove blender jar or food processor bowl while unit is on.
Keep the blender jar or food processor cover on while blending.
• Don’t twist locking ring from blender jar when removing blender jar
from motor base. Simply lift blender jar from motor base.
• Don’t overprocess foods. Blender or food processor will achieve
most desired results in seconds, not minutes.
• Don’t overload blender or food processor. If the motor stalls, turn off
immediately, unplug the unit, and remove a portion of the food; then
continue.
• Don’t use any utensil inside the blender jar or food processor bowl
while the motor is on.
• Don’t use any container or accessories not recommended by
Cuisinart. Doing so may result in injury.
• Don’t place hands inside the blender jar or food processor bowl
when blender is plugged in.
• Don’t add boiling liquids or frozen foods (except ice cubes or ½"
pieces of frozen fruit) to glass blender jar. Boiling liquids should cool
for 5 minutes before being placed in blender jar.
• The food processor accessory is not intended to crush ice. This
could damage the chopping blade and will damage work bowl.
