CHARGING YOUR BLENDER/BATTERY LIFE

The batteries in your Cuisinart® Cordless Smart Stick® Hand Blender and Knife have
not been fully charged. Before the first use of this appliance, the batteries must be
charged until the GREEN battery indicator light illuminates.

With a full charge, your stick blender will run for approximately 20 minutes, depending
on load. Your stick blender will be fully charged in approximately 2-2.5 hours. You
can “quick charge” your stick blender for 5 minutes of run time in 30 minutes. Battery
Life Indicator Lights:

Green: When the unit displays a green power light, you are between 100% and 75%
of battery power Orange: When illuminated in Orange, you are between 75% and
25% of battery power. When Red, you are at less than 25% and will need to charge
soon.

Note: Do not leave your stick blender uncharged for an extended period of time, as it
will affect the life of the rechargeable battery.

CARVING AND SLICING

The knife blades should be assembled and inserted into gearbox before attaching
gearbox to the power handle.

1. Press gearbox onto power handle until
you hear a click.

2. The knife has its own Lock/Unlock switch
on top of the gearbox. Slide the switch
and immediately press and hold the power button on the gearbox.

3. Continue pressing the power button as you cut, keeping the blade straight so
thickness of slices is consistent. CAUTION: NEVER place your hand on top of the
blade to support it while operating the knife, as the blades are designed to move
only back and forth.

4. Blades will automatically stop when power trigger is released. Press the two blade
release buttons on either side of gearbox to release the blades.
