GETTING STARTED / OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove the blender from the packaging and place it on a flat, level, stable and dry work
surface.
2. Insert the power plug into an electrical outlet.
3. Empty the ingredients into the jug and place it on the blender, ensuring it is properly seated and
aligned into the drive socket with the lid securely fitted.
4. For Manual Operation: Selecting the HIGH, MED or LOW options will start the blender, blending
continuously at the predetermined speed. Selecting the PULSE option will start the blender on
HIGH speed only, for as long as the button is held down.
ON/OFF MAIN
POWER SWITCH
5. For Automatic Operation: Selecting the 20”, 35” or 45” options will start the automatic blending
cycle and will stop once complete. Automatic blending cycles will blend at various speeds for
the selected period of time and a long beep signals the end of the cycle.
6. A red LED indicator light identifies the selected button.
7. If the drink/mixture has not blended completely, either press PULSE for extra blending time or
choose a longer automatic cycle. A little more liquid may also need to be added.
8. Over-processing will cause the contents in the jug to warm up and possibly overheat.
9. When blending frozen products, these should ideally be no lower than -18°c.
10. Always add some liquid to blend ice cubes.
11. When blending hot liquids do not fill the jug above the 1 litre mark and always remove the lid
insert to allow steam to escape, starting the motor on low speed or automatic mode.
12. Always wipe any liquid off the rubber mat before operating the blender. This is because it could
be pulled into the motor causing damage and voiding the warranty.
13. When blending large and/or frozen products, it is suggested you place your hand on top of the
blender jug lid to steady the blender during the initial part of the blending cycle, whilst the blade
primarily cuts through the product.
CARE AND CLEANING
ALWAYS UNPLUG THE POWER CORD TO ENSURE YOUR SAFETY BEFORE CLEANING
CAUTION: THE BLADES ARE SHARP SO HANDLE THEM WITH CARE
To clean after use place a little warm water with a small amount of detergent into the jug.
Attach the lid and press and hold the PULSE button for approximately 10 seconds. This will
remove almost all residues. Rinse all soap from the jug and lid with water and leave upturned to
dry.
Do not clean the inside of the jug by hand unless the blade unit has been removed.
To remove or replace the blade unit, turn the retaining ring on the underside of the jug counter-
clockwise.
Only clean the motor base using a slightly damp cloth. Never immerse the motor base in water.
To extend the lifespan of the blade unit, do not leave the jug immersed in water or full of liquid
for a prolonged period of time. By following these precautions it will help to prevent rusting of the
blade unit bearing and premature wear.
Inspect the drive socket, blade unit and jug assembly at regular intervals for wear.
INITIAL TROUBLESHOOTING
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD TO ENSURE YOUR SAFETY BEFORE TROUBLESHOOTING
NO POWER
The blender is fitted with a safety overload button located on the underside of the blender base
which will be activated if the motor is overloaded. If this occurs, please check and remove any
unsuitable ingredients from the jug and then press the overload button to reset the blender.
Ensure the power cord is correctly connected to the blender. If the power cord is damaged in
any way do not use the blender until it has been replaced by a qualified electrician or engineer.
If the blender still does not function correctly contact your local distributor. Do not attempt to
disassemble and repair it yourself.
20” is ideal for milk based products
35” is ideal for frozen fruits
45” is ideal for large, hard and frozen products
NOT BLENDING OR UNSATISFACTORY BLENDING TEXTURE
