BLENDER OPERATION
1. Assemble the blade base onto the blending jar.
2. Add ingredients to the blending jar and replace the lid. You may add more
ingredients through the hole in the center of the lid.
Note
: Add liquid
ingredients first, and then add frozen or solid ingredients. This will prevent
excessive wear on the motor. Cover the hole with the clear lid cover or stir stick
during operation.
Note:
When using the stir stick, turn the stir stick counter-
clockwise to thoroughly mix the ingredients.
3. From the “OFF” position, press the desired function.
4. To stop the blending process, press the “OFF” button.
To make your favorite frozen drinks, follow the steps below.
1. ADD LIQUIDS – Add desired combination of liquid ingredients. Liquids include
any soft ingredients such as fruit, milk, fruit juice, herbal supplements, or yogurt
in any combination you think would be tasty.
We are, of course, partial to the Back to Basics
®
smoothie mixes, which quickly
and easily make three delicious 8-ounce smoothies.
2. ADD ICE – Add desired amount of ice or frozen ingredients. Frozen ingredients
include ice, frozen fruit, frozen yogurt, ice cream, etc.
3. SMOOTH IT – With the lid on and the stir stick (use as
directed below) set in the hole on the lid, pulse the mixture
2 or 3 times by pressing the “PULSE” button. Then press
a speed or fitness setting and wait until the ingredients are
completely mixed.
STIR STICK OPERATION – When in use and while the
machine is running, stir or rotate the Stir Stick in a
counter-clockwise direction so that the Stir Stick scrapes
or contacts the sides of the blending jar. This stirring
operation will aid in mixing the contents of the blending jar
by forcing the ingredients into the mixing blades.
4. SERVE IT – To serve the drink, press the “LOW IMPACT”
button, place a cup under the valve and press down the
valve lever. Stir the contents in the blending jar with the stir stick while
dispensing thick drinks. As the drink level reaches the bottom of the blending
jar, a thick mix may stop dispensing. Add a few tablespoons of liquid to
increase flow. When the blending jar is empty, turn the machine “OFF” and
enjoy. You can continue making drinks one after another, but be sure to give
the Blender a 5-minute break after 3 minutes of continuous use.
