Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of an Oster®Model 6700 In2itive™ Blender/Food Processor. Your product includes the following technology and

features:

• An “In2itive” technology takes the guesswork out of blending, giving you the ability to make a variety of foods and drinks with consistent results every time.

•A user-friendly touchpad design walks you through the complete process, whether you use the pre-programmed AUTOMATIC settings, the recipe section in the instructions or your own recipes.

•A triple set of blades optimizes programmed food and drink preparation.

•A dynamic breaking function stops the blade quickly once the cycle is complete, ensuring that the ingredients are not over processed.

•A 500-watt reversible motor keeps the ingredients near the blade by spinning at very low speeds and gradually speeding up to the programmed level, ensuring optimum results from smooth to chunky.

• MANUAL controls allow you to add additional time to AUTOMATIC programs or allow you to operate MANUALLY for personal recipes.

•A PROGRESS indicator lets you estimate how much more programmed time remains.

•A PAUSE/RESUME button lets you stop to add additional ingredients, then resume at the same point to complete the AUTOMATIC program.

•A feeder cap lets you add ingredients without removing the jar lid.

1. Feeder Cap – Allows you to add ingredients during use.

2. Lid – Seals the blender jar.

3. Jar – Made from Polycarbonate, a virtually indestructible plastic. Has a maximum

capacity of 6 cups.

5. Triple Blades – Creates a forward and reverse action when using the AUTOMATIC

programs.

6. Low Profile Base – Holds the jar securely in 6 positions. Contains a powerful,

reversible, variable speed motor. It uses programmed logic that takes the guesswork out of creating foods and drinks.
