SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

POWER CORD

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazard resulting from entanglement or
tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used with care; however, be sure the
marked electrical rating is at least as great as the electrical rating of this appliance. The
extension cord should be positioned such that it does not drape over the counter or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. The electrical rating of this appliance is
listed on the bottom panel of the unit.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of
electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

FEATURES OF YOUR SMOOTHEE-BAR™ BLENDER

Homemade, healthy smoothees have never been so easy. You control the ingredients, so you’re
always sure that your smoothees are fresh & healthy.

With the Smoothee-Spout & Smoothee-Stick, this powerful machine is designed specifically
for smoothees. You’ll mix & serve faster than with ordinary blenders. Just blend & serve.

The Smoothee-Spout eliminates having to remove the entire container every time you want
to serve a smoothee. Serve the precise amount you want, without mess. You can even serve
continuously while mixing! Fits a glass up to 6 3/4” high, more practical for taller glasses than
comparable models.

The Smoothee-Stick may be used to stir and keep thick ingredients moving, breaking up any
clogging or air pockets.

REVIEWING THE CONTROL BUTTONS

You’ll find 4 control buttons located on the side of the blender motor base:

~ LO turns on the blender at the low speed. This speed should be used for the first

30 seconds of mixing as well as for pouring.

~ HI turns on the blender at the high speed. This speed should be used for the final

stage of mixing. Do not use this speed for pouring.
~ OFF shuts off the machine when either the LO or HI button is in the on position.
~ PULSE is for short pulses of blending on a high speed. This button works only when

you hold it down. When you release the button, the blender will stop automatically.

SOME SMOOTHEE MAKING TIPS

~ You can add ingredients while the blender is operating by removing the small cap

inside of the lid (do not remove the lid while motor is running). Simply drop

ingredients through the opening. Be sure to cut the food into 1-inch piece to fit

through the opening. Replace the small lid cap after you have finished adding

ingredients.
~ Do not place any utensil (scraper, fork, etc.) in the blender jar while blender is

operating.
~ When blending solid foods, such as raw vegetables, cooked or uncooked meats and

fruits always cut them into no larger than 1-inch pieces before placing them into the jar.

Blend no more than 2 cups of these foods at a time. This will speed the blending

process and reduce wear on the blending blades.
~ Always place liquid ingredients in the jar first, unless a recipe specifically states

otherwise.
~ Avoid over-blending. Usually, you will need to blend for a few seconds, not for

minutes. Over-blending may cause food to be mushy.
~ Be sure the motor has completely stopped before removing blender container from the

motor base.

&

SOFT FOODS

Do not use outdoors or for commercial purposes.
Cut fruits and foods into pieces no larger than 1 inch.
If ever blending any hot foods or liquids, always allow it to cool before pouring into smoothee

maker container for processing.

CLEANING YOUR SMOOTHEE-BAR™ BLENDER

First, always make sure that the smoothee maker is unplugged before cleaning.

1. Remove container from blender base and rinse with water to remove any large food
particles that may have accumulated in the jar.

2. Wash the container and its parts in warm, soapy water and rinse well. Do not use heavy
scouring pads. Do not wash in dishwasher.

3. Open the jar valve while washing to clean out the valve. As needed, you should
unscrew the blade and gear in warm, soapy water. Caution: handle the blades
carefully; they are sharp.

4. Rinse and dry each piece thoroughly. Use caution handling the cutting blades with extreme
care and caution. They are sharp and may cause injury.

5. Wipe the motor base with clean, damp cloth. Caution: Do not immerse the blender base
in water or other liquid.

NEVER immerse the motor base in water or other liquid. The motor base can be cleaned
with a damp cloth. Always unplug first. The motor is permanently lubricated and does not
require any additional lubrication. Do not use abrasive cleansers on any part of the blender.

Wash the stainless steel drip tray separately. Use paper towel and / or damp cloth to clean out
any drippings in the reservoir beneath the stainless steel drip tray. Again do not immerse the
drip tray reservoir, or any other part of the motor base, into water.

Important: Do not put any part or parts of blender in dishwasher. Do not use boiling water.
The blade assembly bearings have been designed with a lifetime lubricant; exposure to boiling
water may damage these bearings and shorten the life of the blender.

Dry immediately with an absorbent cloth. Do not allow parts to soak in water.
