• Always operate on a flat surface.
• Take care when removing the jug from the
base or emptying the jug as blades are
extremely sharp.
• Switch off the appliance and disconnect
from supply before changing accessories or
approaching parts that move in use.
Sunbeam is very safety conscious when designing and manufacturing consumer products,

Before Using Your High Performance Blender
CAUTION: Never put the jug or any other
parts in a microwave. Never store foods or
drinks in the jug.
Tamper
• The tamper allows you to accelerate
the process of very thick and/or frozen
mixtures that cannot be processed in a
regular blender. If food is not circulating the
machine may be overloaded or may have a
trapped air bubble. Using the tamper helps
to maintain circulation by preventing air
pockets from forming. While the machine is
running, remove the filler cap and through
the hole in the lid insert the tamper and use
it to press ingredients into the blades as you
make frozen ice creams, nut butters, etc.
• The container should not be more than
2/3 full when the tamper is used during
blending.
• Do not use tamper for more than 20
consecutive seconds (to avoid stressing
the motor).
• You may need to move the tamper not
only up and down, but also side to side.
If the Unit Stops Working:
• Fuse/Overload Protection – The motor
is designed to protect itself from
overheating. When necessary, the motor
will turn itself off.
1. Turn control knob to “Off” and unplug
from the electrical outlet
Remove jug from base and free blade of
2.
any obstructions
3. Press external resettable fuse button on
the bottom of the base
4. Wait 30-45 minutes for the unit to cool.
• If the warning light flashes and the motor
will not run with the jug in place, the
unit has not cooled sufficiently. Turn the
control knob to OFF and wait another
10-20 minutes before trying again.
Interlock
• The unit is supplied with an interlock
on the base. This will prevent the motor
or the control panel from starting if the
blender jug is not properly placed on the
base. If the jug is removed from the base
during operation the unit will stop.
• To restart the blender turn the speed dial
to OFF, place the jug on the blender base
and select the preferred speed to begin
again. The motor will not restart unless
the unit is turned OFF first.

Care And Cleaning
Base
First turn the control to OFF and unplug the
power cord. Then wash outside surface with
a damp soft cloth or sponge using mild soap
and warm water. Never immerse the motor
base in water or other liquid.
Jug
Fill the container half full with warm water
and add 2 drops of liquid soap.
Close the jug with the lid and filler cap.
Turn Speed Dial to a “Low” speed and then
increase to “High”. Run for 30-60 seconds.
Turn the machine OFF, rinse the jug out with
running water then dry.
Handy Blending Tips
Blending Tips
• Do not operate for more than 10 minutes at
a time.
• Jug should be at least 25% full at all times
for optimal performance.
• Filler cap should always be assembled to
the lid and locked when blending on the
SOUP program.
• Use High speeds as much as possible for
whole food juices, soups, shakes, frozen
mixtures, making purées and nut butters.
Processing times will generally be less
than one minute (most take less than 30
seconds). High speed provides the best
quality of refinement, breaking down ice,
frozen fruit, whole fruits or vegetables to a
smooth lump-free consistency.
• Never blend without the lid firmly in place
on the jug.
Lid & Filler Cap
Separate the 2 pieces and wash in warm
soapy water. Rinse clean under running
water, then dry.
Do not put lid, filler cap or jug in the
Note:
dishwasher.
Storing
After cleaning, store with lid not closed
completely to allow air to circulate and
prevent container odours.
• If on High speed the food is not circulating,
try using the tamper. If this is also not
working, try using a slower speed. Once
the food begins to circulate again, you can
switch back to a High speed.
• Due to the power of the machine, it is
normal for it to be fairly loud during
operation. Through the blending cycle, the
noises may change, but there is no need to
be concerned.
Ice Crushing: For optimal ice crushing,
fill the jug with preferred amount of ice.
Then fill with water just above where the
ice stops. Use the speed dial to blend
on High for a few seconds. Then drain
out the excess water and you are left
with a jug filled with great consistent ice!
