ASSEMBLING YOUR BLENDER

CAUTION:Follow these important steps to assemble, tighten, and mount Blender container

quickly and correctly. INJURY MAY RESULT IF MOVING BLADES ARE ACCIENTALLY EXPOSED.

ASSEMBLY OF CONTAINER

Turn container upside down so the small opening is at the top. Place sealing ring on container opening. Turn the agitator blades upside down and place in mouth of container. Thread container bottom to container. Engage threads properly. Screw on firmly.

TIGHTENING THE CONTAINER

To tighten container bottom, put assembled container securely into motor base ring with handle and lug in front of the right stop. Using container handle, turn container to the left as far as possible. This insures that the container bottom is tightened properly. Remove container from motor base and mount.

PERATING YOUR SUNBEAM

LENDER

To operate Blender, place assembled container in motor base ring with container lug against flat side of the motor base stop. If container lug does not rest flat side of right stop, remove container assembly and place against flat side of left stop. Seat container firmly and operate. To remove container, lift straight up. (If it does not easily remove, rockgently and lift up, do not twist.) Do not attempt to place the container on, or remove from the motor base while the motor is running.

CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR SUNBEAM® EASY-CLEAN BLENDER

Blender container parts are corrosion resistant, sanitary and easily cleaned. Before first use and after every use, separate container parts and clean thoroughly in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry well. DO NOT WASH ANY PARTS IN AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER, EXCEPT BLENDER JAR. Periodically check all parts before re-assembly.

If the processing blades are stuck or difficult to turn, DO NOT USE BLENDER. Check by carefully turning the blades in a counter-clockwise direction (opposite edges are sharp). Blades should turn freely.

If the container is chipped or cracked, DO NOT USE BLENDER. Further use could result in the container breaking during use.

Use only Sunbeam recommended replacement parts available at an Authorized Service Facility or the factory.

USE OF DAMAGED OR NON-RECOMMENDED PARTS COULD RESULT IN A SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE BLENDER.

NEVER IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER. The housing can be cleaned with a damp cloth (unplug first).

The motor is permanently lubricated and does not require any additional lubrication. ANY SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE FACILITY. Call toll-free number listed in this manual for list of Authorized Service Stations.

BLENDING TIPS

HOW TO

USE A RUBBER SPATULA WITH YOUR SUNBEAM

BLENDER

When blending ingredients of a heavy consistency such as cheese dips and sandwich spreads, it is necessary to use a rubber spatula to help the mixture get down to the blades. To use spatula, turn motor off, remove the cover, move the spatula up and down rapidly along sides of the container, and push the ingredients from the sides of the container to the centre.

ICE

CRUSH

To crush ice, fill Sunbeam Blender Container with 3 cups of ice cubes. Use liquefy Setting or Pulse/Ice Crush feature to crush ice. For shaved ice, process for longer period of time.

WHITE SAUCE

To smooth gravy or white sauce which may be lumpy, put 1/2 cup (125 ml) into Blender container, cover and start processing at STIR (ON) Remove feeder cap, and with motor running, gradually add remaining gravy or sauce. Continue to process until smooth.

CHOPPING GIBLETS

To chop giblets for gravy, cook the giblets in water or broth, then cool to room temperature. Cut giblets into 1-inch (2.5-cm) pieces, put in Blender container and cover with cooled cooking liquid. Cover container, and process 2 cycles at BLEND (ON). (If giblets are not

chopped finely enough, process for one or two additional cycles.)

MAKING BUTTER

Heavy cream, sweet or sour can be used to make butter – pour into Blender container. Cover and process at WHIP (ON) until butter forms. Pour into strainer to drain off liquid, then put butter into small bowl and press with spatula to remove as much liquid as possible. Add salt while kneading butter. Try adding 1 Tbsp. (15 ml) dried herbs (parsley,tarragon, savory or a garlic clove) per cup (250 ml) of cream for a delightful herb butter.

GRINDING POPPY SEEDS

To grind poppy seeds for fillings, place 1/2 cup (125 ml) poppy seeds in jar and process at Blend (ON) until seeds are crushed and moist. Stop Blender once or twice to shake down seeds from top of container.

RATING COCONUT

To grate fresh coconut, remove feeder cap, start motor, set speed at LIQUEFY (PULSE), and drop coconut pieces into revolving blades. After grating 1-1/2 cups (375 ml) coconut, empty container and repeat process until all coconut is grated.

THINGS TO DO AND NOT TO DO

DO —

1. Use only the line voltage and frequency as specified on the bottom of the Blender.

2. Always operate Blender on a clean, dry surface to prevent air from carrying foreign material or water into the motor.

3. Put liquid portions of recipes into Blender container first unless the instructions in recipes specify otherwise.

4. Cut all firm fruits and vegetables, cooked meats, fish and seafoods into pieces no larger than 1/4 inch (.6 cm) to 1 inch (2.5 cm).

5. Use rubber spatula to push ingredients to be chopped into liquid portion of recipe ONLY when motor is OFF.

6. Place cover firmly on Blender container before starting, and rest hand on the container cover when starting and running motor.

7. Remove heavy dips and spreads, nut butters, mayonnaise and products of similar consistency by removing the processing assembly and pushing the mixture out through the bottom opening into serving dishes or storage container.

8. Pour mixtures if liquid or semi-liquid consistency, such as muffin and cake batters, from Blender container.

9. Allow cooked vegetables and broth to cool before pouring into Blender container for processing .

10. Switch to the next higher speed if the motor seems to labour when processing at one of the lower speeds to prevent overloading of the motor.

DON’T —

1. DON’T expect your Blender to replace all of your kitchen appliances. It will not: mash potatoes, whip egg whites or substitutes for dairy toppings, grind raw meat, knead or mix stiff doughs or extract juices from fruits and vegetables.

2. DON’T process mixtures too long. Remember, the Blender performs its tasks in seconds, not minutes. It is better to stop and check the consistency after a few seconds than to overblend and have a mushy or too-finely ground product.

3. DON’T overload the motor with extra-heavy or extra-large loads. If the motor stalls, turn off immediately, unplug cord from outlet and remove a portion of the load before beginning again.

4. DON’T attempt to remove Blender container from motor base or replace it until the motor has coasted to a complete stop. Blender parts can be damaged.

5. DON’Tplace or store processing assembly on motor base without first correctly assembling to Blender container. Severe injury can result if Blender is accidentally turned on.

6. DON’T use any utensil, including spatulas, in the container while the motor is running. They can catch in the moving blades, break the container and cause severe injury.

7. DON’T use ANY container not recommended by manufacturer for processing foods. Other containers may break or loosen during processing and cause severe injury.

8. DON’T process hot foods or liquids in the Blender with filler cap attached. Hot liquid may spurt out when cover is removed.
