Using Your Blender in

Manual Mode

Put ingredients in jar. Always add liquid ingredients first followed by
solid ingredients.
Place the filler cap insert into the blender lid opening and turn filler cap
clockwise until tight. Firmly attach assembled lid to the blender jar.
Plug the blender into a 120-volt 60 Hz AC-only outlet. Place the blender
jar on the motor base. All icons will display briefly for 1 second and the
blender will be in stand-by mode. The timer will display “00:00”.
The timer display shows elapsed time.
This blender has 10 speeds plus a Pulse function. Select the speed that
best suits your blending task. We recommend always starting on Low
speed and gradually increase to your desired speed. The speed range
low to high can be set by sliding your finger from the lowest speed
bar to the highest. The speed can also be adjusted when the blender is
operating.
When the SPEED has been set, touch the START/CANCEL icon to start
blending. The color of the icon will change from red to white. To turn off
the blender, touch the START/CANCEL icon while blending. The blender
will turn off and the START/CANCEL icon will change back to a red
color.
To add ingredients while the blender is on, remove the filler cap insert
and drop ingredients through the lid opening. Replace the filler cap
securely when done. Do not place your hands into the blender jar with
the blender plugged in.
The blender can also be used in PULSE mode without setting the
SPEED. To use the PULSE mode, touch the PULSE icon once to activate
the PULSE mode (the light will be blinking). Touch and hold the PULSE
icon within 5 seconds to start blending in PULSE mode. To stop the
PULSE mode, simply release the PULSE icon. The blender always
operates on the highest speed in PULSE mode regardless of the preset
program selected. When using the PULSE mode, the timer will display
“00:00” and show elapsed time when in operation.
WARNING: When blending hot liquids ensure the lid is securely in place.
Place the filler cap into lid and turn clockwise until it stops (about a
quarter turn). Always start in low speed and then increase speed to
desired setting. Use caution with hot liquids. Spraying from under the
filler cap can occur, or escaping steam may cause scalding. Only use the
lid provided with your blender.

Helpful Hints

If you need to scrape ingredients from the sides of the jar ensure your
blender is off unplug from the wall outlet.
When blending solid foods, always cut them into no larger than 1/2-inch
to 1-inch pieces before placing them into the jar. Blend no more than 1/2
cup of these foods at a time for uniform blending.
We do not recommend blending herbs or spices in the blender jar. They
can permanently discolor the blender jar and release strong odors into
the container which will affect the flavor of other foods.
Remember that ice cubes vary in size and shape. Smaller ice cubes can
be chopped or crushed faster than larger ones. To add ice cubes to
mixtures while the blender is operating, remove the filler cap and drop
through the opening.
If too much food is blended at one time, the motor may stall. If this
happens, stop the blender and unplug from the wall outlet. Remove a
portion of the food and then continue the blending process.
For more consistent results, always add liquid ingredients first, followed
by solid ingredients.
To add food or liquid while the blender is operating, remove the filler
cap from the blender jar cover and drop the ingredients through the
opening, however DO NOT remove the filler cap or lid if blending hot
liquids to avoid a potential burn injury. Remember to replace the filler
cap when finished adding ingredients. Avoid over-blending. Usually, you
will need to blend for only a few seconds, not minutes.
This blender is NOT intended to grind meat, mash potatoes, knead
dough, whip egg whites, or serve as a juice extractor.
Never place any of the following ingredients into the blender jar: bones
or large pieces of solidly frozen foods. If a food cannot be cut with a
knife, do not place it in the blender jar.
When making peanut butters or other nut butters or oil based foods
do not process for more than 1 minute. Over-processing can cause
overheating.
Your blender motor is equipped with a overheat protection system.
Should the motor overheat it will turn itself off. If your blender should
overheat unplug from the wall outlet and let it cool down for 45 minutes.

The tamper is to be used for stirring food and reading the food
temperature in the blender jar.

Never use the tamper without the lid in place. Remove the filler cap from
the lid and slide tamper into the Blender Jar. The tamper has a splash
guard located near the top that prevents the tamper from coming in
contact with the blade assembly.

The maximum temperature for the tamper is 212ºF. To take a
temperature reading simply press the temperature button located on
top of the tamper. The temperature is read by a sensor located at the
bottom of the tamper.

You can turn the temperature sensor off by pressing the temperature
button; otherwise it will automatically shut off after 120 seconds.
