Operation

Professional Blending Techniques

Filling the container

When filling the container with ingredients, follow
these recommendations:

• Use sufficient amount of liquid to ensure that the
mixture is fluid and free-running at all times. Pour
the liquid into the container FIRST.

• Cut solid ingredients into pieces that are no
bigger than a 1″ (25 mm) cube.

• Add the ingredients to container in batches. Do
not blend maximum volume all at once.

• Do NOT overfill the container with product. This
may prevent the blender from processing the
product properly. Process dense foods or thick
mixtures in small batches, and remember that the
volume of the product normally increases during
processing.

• Do not exceed one quart (one liter) of content
when blending hot product.

• Always place the cover and filler cap on the
container when blending. For blending hot
liquids, remove filler cap from container cover
before blending.

Blending techniques

Icy drinks – Do not use blender to crush large ice

cubes. The blender is not designed for this. Small
ice cubes or crushed ice is recommended. Pour in
liquid, then add ice. Cover. Set speed at HIGH and
process until desired consistency is reached.
Chunks of frozen fruit can be added to milk or
fruit juice to produce a sherbet or slush.

Blending hot mixtures

IMPORTANT: To minimize the possibility of

scalding, the following precautions MUST be
observed:

• Do not exceed one quart (one liter) of content
when blending hot product. Remember that the
volume of the product normally increases during
processing.

• Always place the cover on the container and
remove the filler cap from container cover when
blending hot liquids to prevent the build up of
pressure.

• Never stand with your face directly over the
container when operating the blender where
steam may be released.

• Begin on LOW speed (1) and then select a
speed that produces a column of air in the
center of the container.

Filler Cap

Use the filler cap to add liquids to the container
while the unit is running.

wWARNING

Burn Hazard

Always use caution when blending
hot contents.

Failure to follow these instructions
