Care and Cleaning
The Blender pitcher and blade can be
easily cleaned without disassembly.
• Clean the Blender thoroughly after every
use.
• Do not immerse the Blender base or
cord in water.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or
scouring pads.
/
1. To clean the blade, place the pitcher on
the Blender base, fill one-half full with
warm (not hot) water, and add 1 or 2
drops of dishwashing liquid. Place the
lid on the pitcher, press the STIR speed
setting, and run the Blender for 5 to
10 seconds. Remove the pitcher and
empty contents. Rinse the pitcher with
warm water until clean. The pitcher can
also be washed in the bottom rack of
an automatic dishwasher.
2.
To clean the lid and ingredient cap,
wash in warm soapy water, then rinse
and dry thoroughly. These parts can
also be washed in the top rack of an
automatic dishwasher. For best results,
hand washing is recommended.
3.
Wipe the Blender base and cord with
a warm, sudsy cloth; wipe clean with a
damp cloth, and dry with a soft cloth.
For storage, the cord can be coiled
into the cord-wrap on the bottom of
the base.

Troubleshooting
The Blender does not operate when a setting is selected:
Check to see if the Blender is plugged
into a grounded 3-prong outlet. If it is,
press OFF, then unplug the Blender.
Plug it back in to the same outlet. If the
Blender still does not work, check the
fuse or circuit breaker on the electrical
circuit the Blender is connected to and
No indicator lights are lit.
The Blender stops while blending:
All indicator lights are flashing
at the same time.
Indicator lights are flashing alternately.
make sure the circuit is closed.
The Blender may be overloaded. If the
Blender becomes overloaded when
blending heavy ingredients, it will
automatically shut off to prevent damage
to the motor, Press OFF to reset the
Blender. Remove the jar from the base
and divide the jar contents into smaller
batches. Adding liquid to the jar may
also reduce the load on the Blender.
The Blender may be jammed. If it's
jammed, the Blender will stop running
to prevent damage to the motor, Press
OFF to reset the Blender. Remove the
pitcher from the base and free the
blades by breaking-up or removing the
contents at the bottom of the jar,
If the problem cannot be fixed with the steps provided in this section, then contact

Blender Tips
/
Quick Tips
• In order to produce a smoother texture,
blend with CRUSH ICE if you're making
beverages using ice.
• Smaller ice cubes can be chopped or
crushed faster than large ones.
• Add food to this Blender pitcher in
larger quantities than you would with
other blenders - you can add 2 to
3 cups (475 to 710 mL) at a time versus
1 cup (235 mL) portions.
• For many ingredient mixtures, start the
blending process at STIR to thoroughly
combine the ingredients. Then increase
to a higher speed, if necessary.
• Be sure to keep lid on pitcher while
blending
• If desired, remove center cap of pitcher
lid to add liquids or ice cubes while the
Blender is operating at STIR, CHOP or
MIX speeds.
• When operating at higher speeds with
a full pitcher or with hot contents, stop
the Blender and then add ingredients.
• Stop the Blender before using utensils
in the pitcher. Use a rubber spatula to
mix ingredients only when the Blender
is OFE Never use any utensil, including
spatulas, in the pitcher while the motor
is running.
• Cool hot foods, if possible, before
blending. Begin blending warm foods
at STIR. Increase to higher speed,
if necessary.
• Remove center ingredient cap when
blending hot liquids and operate only
on STIR. Do not place bare hand on
pitcher lid when processing hot liquids
• Stop and check the consistency of foods
after a few seconds to prevent
over-processing.
