Always add liquid ingredients to the blending jar first and then add remaining
ingredients. This will prevent excessive wear on the motor and ensure that the
ingredients are properly blended.
•
Cut harder foods into approximately 1-inch cubes to achieve better results.
•
The stir stick may be used to assist in making frozen drinks or for blending any
other types of ingredients. When the stir stick is not being used, be sure to
place the clear lid cover over the hole in the center of the lid.
•
When using the stir stick turn the stir stick counter-clockwise to thoroughly mix
the ingredients.
•
When chopping dry ingredients such as breadcrumbs, nuts, spices, etc., ensure
the blending jar and blade base are completely dry.
•
The “PULSE” button should be operated in short bursts. As the “PULSE” button
is pressed and released, the blades should stop rotating between pulses.
•
Do not attempt to mix or knead heavy dough, mash potatoes or beat egg whites.
•
Do not over-blend foods. Most ingredients should be properly blended or
chopped in seconds. Do not operate motor base for longer than 3 minutes at a
time.
•
If the motor stalls, turn off and unplug the unit. Remove a portion of the
ingredients before attempting to continue.
•
Do not add boiling liquids to the blending jar as cracking of the blending jar may
occur.
