Using the Blender
PULSE Mode Feature
Your KitchenAid
®
Blender offers PULSE (
)
mode, which allows a “Pulse-at-any-
Speed” feature.
NOTE:
PULSE (
) mode will not work
with the CRUSH ICE (
) feature.
1. Before operating the Blender, make
sure the pitcher is properly in place on
the Blender base.
2. Put ingredients into pitcher, and firmly
attach lid.
3. Press PULSE (
). The indicator light
above the button will blink to indicate
that all five speeds are in the PULSE
(
) mode.
4. Select a speed button. Press and hold
for the desired length of time. Both the
speed and PULSE (
) buttons will stay
lit when pulsing at the selected speed.
When button is released, the blending
will stop, but the Blender will remain in
PULSE (
) mode and the PULSE (
)
mode indicator will return to blinking.
To pulse again or at another speed,
simply press and hold the button of the
desired speed.
5. To turn off the PULSE (
) mode
feature, press “O”. The Blender is now
ready for continuous operation.
6. Before removing the pitcher, press “O”
to deactivate the Blender, and unplug
the power cord.
Ingredient Cap
The 60 ml ingredient cap can be used to
measure and add ingredients. Remove cap
and add ingredients at STIR (
)
, CHOP
(
) or MIX (
), speeds. When operating
at higher speeds, with a full
pitcher or with hot contents,
stop the Blender and then
add ingredients.
SOFT START™ Blending Feature
The Soft Start™ blending feature
automatically starts the Blender at a lower
speed to draw ingredients into the blades,
then quickly increases to the selected
speed for optimal performance.
NOTE:
The Soft Start™ blending feature
only works when a speed is selected from
the “O” mode. The Soft Start™ feature
does not work with PULSE (
) mode or
CRUSH ICE (
).
