THE CONTROL PANEL AND PROGRAMMES
• If the blender jug is correctly locked into the motor base the control dial will illuminate for one
second which means power is connected and the blender is ready to go
• During working mode the blue light around the dial will light up
• The blender has variable speed control and 3 functions – PULSE, ICE and SMOOTHIE
• Each of the function buttons will illuminate when selected
PULSE – creates a burst of power for quick blending. The PULSE function can be used to break
apart large pieces of food or to control the texture of food when chopping. The PULSE function
only operates for as long as it is pressed
ICE – provides short powerful bursts (operates as a pulse function). Continue with the ICE function
until the ice is crushed to the desired consistency. Do not put too many cubes into the blender for
crushing; it is better to do larger quantities in smaller batches. Press the ICE function again to stop.
SMOOTHIE – for powerful blending. Press the SMOOTHIE function again to stop.
