Blender Features
This Blender was built and tested to
KitchenAid quality standards for optimum
performance and long, trouble-free life.
Robust Motor
Rugged 0.9-horsepower motor supplies
the power for superb performance with
all blending tasks- from pureeing sauces
to making chunky salsas, or uniformly
crushing a pitcher of ice or frozen fruit
within seconds for silky smoothies.
Easy Clean, One-Piece Pitcher Design
One-piece design integrates a functional
pitcher with dynamic interior contours
that continually directs food into the
blade for fast, thorough blending. The
one-piece design also means cleaning is
achieved without removing the blade and
other parts. Pitcher stands up to extreme
temperatures - from boiling soups to
frozen margaritas and has a wide pour
spout to ensure smooth pouring. Pitcher is
dishwasher safe.
One-piece 1,5 L capacity clear,
pitcher is shatter resistant,
scratch resistant, and stain
resistant. Comfort-designed
pitcher handle offers a firm grip.
Stay-Put Lid with Clear, 60 ml
Ingredient Cup
Provides a strong seal. The flexible lid will
maintain its tight seal throughout the
life of the Blender. The lid incorporates a
removable 60 ml cup for convenience in
measuring and adding ingredients.
Stainless Steel Blade
Sharp oversized blade tines are positioned
on four different planes for fast, thorough,
and consistent blending.
Durable Steel-Reinforced Couplers
Commercial-quality couplers with 12
interlocking teeth provide direct transfer of
motor power to the blade. Pitcher coupler
is coated for quiet operation.
Speed Selection Buttons
Create frozen drinks and puree sauces or
soups in seconds. Blend with confidence,
control, and consistency at a!l speed settings:
STIR(_), CHOP (/.... ), MIX (j), PUREE(_-),
and LIQUEFY (_,,). The PULSE (P°i,) mode
works with all five speeds. The CRUSH ICE
(._) feature is designed specifically for
crushing ice and will automatically pulse at
staggered intervals for optimal results.
Intelli-Speed TM Motor Control
Exclusive Intelli-Speed TM control automatically
works to keep speed constant - even
through density changes when ingredients
are added. This advanced KitchenAid
design maintains an optimal blending
speed for each culinary task and control-
pad setting.
Soft Start Blending Feature
The Blender starts at a slower speed to
pull food into the blade then quickly
increases to selected speed setting. This
design feature reduces start-up kick and
allows hands-free operation.
Die-Cast Metal Base
Heavy, die-cast metal base ensures stable,
quiet operation when blending a full
pitcher of ingredients. Four rubber feet
on wide, solid base provide a no-slip,
non-marring grip. Smooth and rounded,
the base is easy to clean and features
cord storage underneath.
Clean Touch Control Pad
Wipes clean in an instant. Smooth
control pad has no crevices or cracks to
trap ingredients.
