Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR

SUNBEAM CAFÉ SERIES BLENDER
PB9800.

• Ensure fingers are kept well away from the
blades when in use. The processing baton
may be used while the motor is running with
the main part of the lid in place.

• Always operate on a flat level surface.

• Ensure the control dial is in the “OFF”
position and the jug is in place before
plugging into the power outlet.

• Do not operate on low speed for more than
30 seconds at a time when blending heavy

loads.

• Always remove the plug from the power
outlet when the blender is not in use, before
disassembling, putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning other than washing the
jug.

• Blade is sharp, handle carefully.

• Always operate the blender with the lid in
place.

• When using heavy loads, the blender should
not be operated for more than 15 seconds.
This does not apply to any of the recipes
detailed in this instruction booklet.

• Do not place the blade assembly onto the
motor base without it being correctly fitted to
the jug.

• The maximum load capacity of the jug is
2 litres, and substantially less with thick
mixtures.

• When making peanut butter (or other nut
butters, or oil based foods) do not process
for more than one minute after mixture
starts circulating. Over-processing will cause
the mixture in the jug to overheat. Do not
process more than 500g of nuts at a time.

• Jug should not be more than 2/3 full when
the processing baton is left in place while
blending. Do not exceed 30 seconds of
continuous blending with processing baton in
place.

• The blender is fitted with a safety switch to
prevent the motor operating unless the jug is
in place.

• Do not blend warm/hot ingredients. Allow
ingredients to cool to room temperature
before placing in jug.

Operating your Café Series®
Blender

1. Place the DURALITE™ jug on the motor
base by locating it over the four non-slip
rubber jug mounts. The jug can be
placed on the motor base in four different
positions.

2. Place ingredients into the DURALITE™
jug.

Note: Do not operate the blender when the
jug is empty.

3. Place the lid firmly into position on the
DURALITE™ jug. Always ensure the
measuring cap is in place when processing,
except when the processing baton is
inserted through the opening in the lid; or
when adding ingredients through the hole

in the lid.

Note: Always have the lid in position during
processing.

4. a) Using the speed dial:

Using the variable speed dial, select the
desired processing speed from 1 – 5 and
this will provide continuous processing until
the dial is turned anti-clockwise to the ‘0’
position.

Due to the high processing speed of the
Café Series® Blender, processing times are
significantly reduced over those of standard
blenders. Therefore we advise that until
you are familiar with the speed of the Café
Series® Blender that you keep a close watch
on ingredients being processed.

Tip: Use the ‘Slow Start’ feature to combine
ingredients at the start of blending. To do
so, press the ‘Slow Start’ function button
first, then turn the speed dial to the desired
speed. The blender will slowly ramp up its
speed to this chosen speed setting.

Tip: Once processing has commenced, further
ingredients can be added by removing the
measuring cap and pouring ingredients
through the hole in the lid.

Note: Wait until blade comes to a complete
stop before removing the lid or jug.

4. b) Using a pre-programmed function:

Select the desired function by pressing
the appropriate function button. The
blender will start to operate and only the
selected function button will illuminate.
On completion of the task, the motor will
stop and all function buttons will illuminate
indicating that these are now available again.

Note: The ‘Slow Start’ must be used in
combination with the variable speed dial.
Please refer to 4.a.

Before a new function can be selected, the
previous function must be stopped.

To stop blending at any time, press the

selected function button.

Tip: Once processing has commenced, further
ingredients can be added by removing the
measuring cap and pouring ingredients
through the hole in the lid.

Note: Wait until blade comes to a complete
stop and all function buttons illuminate
before removing the lid or jug.
